Testing business logic using DSLs in Clojure

By Mayank Jain

Background

Testing business logic quickly becomes tricky, as applications grow and scale. Example based unit and integration tests, and exploratory tests become poor choices to check and verify a large state space. Also such methods are not well-suited to clearly describe the state space / transitions we want to test.

For quite some time I have been experimenting with DSLs to write our tests at Helpshift. I recently gave a talk on “Testing business logic using DSLs in Clojure” at Functional Conf this year. I have shared my learning in the talk. Hope you enjoy it. Feel free to ask me any questions if you have.
