Test-driven development in Android
Level: Beginner
by Illia Kondratov
Introduction for people who never tried TDD or unit testing before, or struggle with some part of it. We’ll cover benefits, discuss best practices and see what people mean when they say “it’s better to have unit-tests here”.

Doze Mode and App Standby
Level: Intermediate
by Graeme Campbell, Octave Group
Since Doze and App Standby were introduced in version 6.0 (Marshmallow), Android has been trying to preserve battery life by limiting the amount of processing that apps are allowed to perform when they are in the background, and when the phone is not in active use. This talk will help developers understand these limitations, and know how to work with Doze mode to provide a better user experience.
