There are few things more frustrating than documentation that doesn’t match the implementation – especially when it’s documentation for your customers. In actively developed software that is a reoccurring problem.

To avoid all these problems, it’s time to start testing your docs.
In this talk I’ll show you what’s currently possible when it comes to testing documentation, how to start testing API documentation written using API Blueprints and how to incorporate it into your workflow.
