Preface

Creating digital things to solve challenges is rewarding, but often, we lack the skills and find that the learning curve feels steep. Low-code platforms are changing this by making software development more accessible.

These tools are evolving to close the gap between a person’s ideas and the code that brings them to life. However, there are essential techniques to understand, such as the life cycle of an app and the required testing to validate the expectations of your users. This book aims to equip you with these skills, especially in the context of Microsoft Power Apps, preparing you for the development of your next impactful app.

This book guides you through the process of testing in Power Apps, from the basic concepts to the best practice adoption in the creation of your apps. It will show you step by step, with clear examples, how low-code testing can help you build better applications and free you from annoying problems as you grow the features for your users. You will learn how to include automated testing in Power Apps canvas apps as well as in advanced areas such as PCF components and model-driven applications.
