I’m challenging myself to find 12 plugin vulnerabilities in the next 12 months, right in time for WordCamp Moscow 2018, where I’ll present peculiar vulnerable code and talk about practical security mistakes that don’t get caught by the official plugin repository review process.
I was honored to give a talk at the second WordCamp Russia event. Like last year, I decided to speak about a general development topic and how it can be applied to WordPress. This time my talk was on profiling.
Here’s a video. English subtitles are available by selecting “Subtitles” in the player.
And here’s wptop on GitHub, an XHProf-based WordPress plugin that gives you an overview of your WordPress website performance. Feel free to give it a spin and let me know what you think.
I took part in WordCamp Russia 2013 this year, which was organized by my brother (with huge help from a handful of volunteers and the WordPress Foundation). This was the first ever WordCamp in Russia.
My talk was on testing automation in custom WordPress code, which covered some basics of unit tests using PHPUnit, system tests using CasperJS.
The talk is in Russian, but English subtitiles are available. Also slides and code. To view all other talks visit https://wordpress.tv/event/wordcamp-russia-2013/.
Konstantin wrote about the event in much detail.
