Monads for testers

Step by step functional programming (or some part of it) became a daily routine of almost every software developer. At the same time, there might be an opinion that “monads” and “pure functions” are just toys for bored matured engineers. And testers should not look there for sure – they should test software, it doesn’t matter how it’s written. In my talk, I want to show that functional programming has a clear impact on software quality. Lots of defects will not even appear in the code which is written functional way. If you are interested not only in testing and finding bugs but also in conditions how to prevent them from the beginning – come to listen to my speech. We’ll check examples written in Scala working on JVM but Java or C# knowledge is more than enough to understand the material.
