    Integration testing (end-to-end or GUI testing) attempts to simulate a user interacting with your app by doing things like pushing buttons, selecting items, and typing on the keyboard to avoid having humans do that kind of repetitive work. A device farm like Firebase Test Lab allows you to run tests across various devices and device configurations simultaneously to check whether the app works or performs well. In this talk, you'll learn how to write an efficient Flutter integration test, run it on Firebase test lab for Android and iOS, and learn tips and tricks to manage your code and tests. Leverage performance results in your CD/CI and deployment pipeline.

    Creating a video game can be quite a complex task; more than developing the game's logic, you might want to give your players the ability to synchronize their high score across multiple devices, check their friend's scores and maybe even get some cool seasonal bonuses/power-ups. In this 20 min talk, Rosário shows game developers how to: - use Firebase Auth to authenticate the players of their game - use Cloud Firestore to store the players' high scores - use Remote Config to control the game's difficulty and offer seasonal bonuses (like when the main character gets that cool Santa Claus hat on Xmas 😉)
