This lecture covers the principles of testing actor systems in the context of reactive programming, focusing on verifying externally observable effects, using Akka's Test Kit to test actors with dependencies, and interacting with parent and foster-parent actors. It also discusses the importance of testing actor hierarchies by starting with leaves and working up, known as 'Reverse Onion Testing'.
