Hi! My name is Nick Christiansen and I am Software Engineer on a Planning & Scheduling team at Assignar. Recently, we started building new React table views to replace existing Angular 1.x tables. Finding the right pattern which will scale, while allowing iteration was both a key objective and a challenge. One of the solutions for this was a custom React hook to manage the table state. To be able to iterate with confidence, without regression, having tests around it was critical. This article will show a simplified example of how we implement tests on our own custom useTable React hook.

Understanding the expected performance of a system is essential for maintaining service levels of the system. Using the AWS solution, Distributed Load Testing, we were able to test one of our latest features on Amazon ECS Fargate without the hassle of setting up a test harness, and managed to find a bug in our scaling policy during the process.
