Event Breakdown

David Burns	Web Apps are the future!
Web Applications have been the cornerstone of the Internet for some time. With the invention of Web App Stores we are seeing the ability to have web applications installed on to your local computer or on to mobile device, including a Firefox OS device. In this talk we will have a look at how we build a basic web application using a number of the new HTML5 features that allow people to "package" web sites onto web apps that are installed into the desktop. We will look at how we can make a take our applications offline so they still work on Firefox OS, on Android and on your desktop when you don't have connectivity! We will then move onto having a look at how we can test our applications because making web apps great is by making sure they are of a high quality! Selenium has for years been the go to library that allows web developers and quality assurance people to make sure that the web application works as we expect. Testing apps with Selenium doesn't always work but the next generation of FirefoxDriver, called Marionette, will be able to install applications and then test them.
