This year's EmberConf featured 25+ remote presentations about the latest and greatest in JavaScript and Ember with Emberistas from all around the world - and the event was a huge success! In case you haven't had a chance to tune into the livestream this week already, be sure to catch up on the recordings for day 1 (part 1 + part 2) and day 2 (part 1 + part 2) of the conference.
Check out all the related resources for the talks in the conference notes by Alex DiLiberto (@alexdiliberto). Also, stay tuned and follow the EmberConf Twitter account to not miss out on the exclusive BonusConf sessions, which will be released over the next couple of days!
Last, but not least, we have one request for those of you who attended EmberConf 2020:
Tell us about someone new that you got to chat with at the virtual conf!
Let us know about your answer to this question either by tweeting us via Twitter using the hashtag #EmberConFriends or as a message on the Ember Discord in the #support-ember-times channel. We will raffle an exclusive EmberConf retro sticker set among all story writers by April 6, 2020. We're looking forward to hear from you and happy catching up on virtual EmberConf!
Dawid Pośliński (@PoslinskiNet) wrote about testing best practices and which addons to use in the newly released Ember Testing Guide v1. The testing guide goes through why we need tests to begin with. What benefits does testing give us and what gaps are still present.
Following that, the testing guide discusses best practices in how we architect our testing code. It also goes through how to use the right kind of test. Should the test be unit, integration, acceptance, visual regression, or even manual? These principles are the building blocks to constructing effective tests.
Finally the guide goes through all the best addons available today and how to use them in testing your application with examples from qunit-dom, ember-test-selectors, ember-cli-timecop, ember-a11y-testing, ember-percy and many more!
Check it out as a free eBook, on GitHub, or as a PDF!
The conventional file layout of Ember apps has undergone a few changes throughout the years.
Besides the classic file layout, users have also been able to opt-in to the pods layout for a while. And while pre-v3.13 Ember users were modifying component templates and .js files in two different directories, they recently got the chance to work on component files side-by-side after the implementation of the component template co-location RFC.
Another, recent RFC wants to take the principle of co-location even a step further: it proposes that test files, e.g. those for rendering tests of a component, should be co-located right next to the respective component class and template files. Beyond that, the proposal suggests a similar co-location pattern for unit tests of related routes and controllers, too - with the motivation to improve the discoverability of tests for application developers.
Ready to learn more about how this could be implemented? Be sure to read the full proposal and to leave your thoughts or questions in the comments below!

Continuous integration (CI) and continuous deployment may be skills that you get to practice maybe once on a production app, depending on your job title. But the truth is, you can practice them (ahem) continuously at an early stage for any app, no matter who you are. 💗
You might then ask, where can I learn how to add CI to my Ember app? Are there cool things that I can do because I have an Ember app?
In his blog post, Isaac Lee (@ijlee2) shows step-by-step how you can write a GitHub Actions workflow. Thanks to Ember's addon ecosystem, you can:
yarn/npm install)If you wanted to solve these problems or needed a reference code, look no further! Feedback is always welcome (you can DM @ijlee2 on Discord).
Steven Elberger (@StevenElberger)'s blog post, "Respect the Underscore," is a fantastic example of what you can practice as a developer: Document your bug for posterity, especially if it failed your app or test suite in a catastrophic manner.
Here are some questions that you and your team can address:
Because Steven's writing excellently builds suspense, we won't dare spoil the twists and ending here. Instead, we encourage you to check out the post!
