Description

Brian Jordan will give a tour of Code.org’s continuous, automated cross-browser and visual testing suite—the challenges of building for the classroom, the technologies used to test Code Studio and the Hour of Code, and the team-wide lessons learned (and bugs found) along the way.

Code.org is a non-profit dedicated to expanding access to computer science, and increasing participation by women and underrepresented students of color. Their vision is that every student in every school should have the opportunity to learn computer science. Code Studio—Code.org’s free, online computer science curriculum platform—has over 200,000 teachers have signed up to teach intro courses, and over 5,500,000 enrolled students. Students play through curricula of increasingly challenging puzzles, featuring kid-favorite characters from Minecraft, Angry Birds and Star Wars.
