##JSFoo 2018 will be held on 26 and 27 October 2018.
##About the conference:
JSFoo is HasGeek’s annual JavaScript conference. JSFoo is in its eighth edition this year.
The 2018 edition is single-track event with talks in auditorium 1 at the NIMHANS Convention Centre, and Birds of Feather (BOF) sessions in the hallway. Meta Refresh -- with talks on usability, user experience, design and UI engineering will be held in auditorium 2 at the NIMHANS Convention Centre.
##Theme: JavaScript and Security
Core talks, held in the mornings, at JSFoo 2018 will be based on the theme “JavaScript and Security”. Under this theme, we will cover the following topics:
Besides the main theme, JSFoo will cover the following topics:
We are inviting proposals:
Proposals will be filtered and shortlisted by an Editorial Panel.
** Make sure to add links to videos / slide decks when submitting proposals. We will not review proposals without detailed outlines or slide decks and preview videos.**
The first filter for every proposal is whether the technology or solution you are referring to is open source or not. If you are referring to a proprietary technology, consider picking up a sponsored session.
The criteria for selecting proposals, in the order of importance, are:
No one submits the perfect proposal in the first instance. We therefore encourage you to:
Our editorial team also helps potential speakers in refining their talk ideas, and rehearsing at least twice - before the main conference - to sharpen the insights presented in the talk.
##Passes and honorarium for speakers:
We pay an honorarium of Rs. 3,000 to each speaker and workshop instructor at the end of their talk/workshop. Confirmed speakers and instructors also get a pass to the conference and networking dinner. We do not provide free passes for speakers’ colleagues and spouses.
##Travel grants for outstation speakers:
Travel grants are available for international speakers who have led/worked on projects that have large-scale adoption. Travel grants are available for domestic speakers (without the criteria mentioned for international speakers).
We evaluate each travel grant application on its merits, giving preference to women, people of non-binary gender, and Africans. If you require a grant, request it when you submit your proposal in the field where you add your location. JSFoo is funded through ticket purchases and sponsorships; travel grant budgets vary.
##Important dates:
JSFoo + Meta Refresh: 26 and 27 October, at the NIMHANS Convention Centre.

You can gain a lot from a stable suite of end-to-end tests, but not a lot of developers know how easy it is to setup these tests. Dive into this crash course on end-to-end testing, you’ll first learn the basics and then some advanced techniques that will have you testing like a pro in no time.
The talk is a walkthrough guide on how to get up and running with end-to-end tests, using WebdriverIO as an example framework for demonstration purposes. Once I’ve gone through the basic setup and some simple examples, I’ll show some advanced techniques for testing some of the trickier aspects of a website.
The talk will involve both slides and (offline) live coding, and will demonstrate how easy it is to get started with end-to-end tests. It is suitable for all audiences that have experience using Javascript, and is applicable to anyone developing a website, regardless of the technologies it is built with.
What is end-to-end testing?
Setup a test suite with WebdriverIO
Integrating webdriverio with other tools
Advanced techniques
