Understanding and Using Unit Testing

A comprehensive course to truly understand and apply unit testing, component testing, integration testing, system testing, and acceptance testing.

Duration: 2 days | Price: € 590.00 VAT excluded

Prerequisites

  • Good knowledge of the language used for the exercises and OOP in general (inheritance, polymorphism, encapsulation)

  • Although not strictly required, it is recommended to have previously attended the course “Truly Apply OOP and Design Patterns“ to get the most out of the unit testing exercises.

Description

The difference between a craft process and an industrial process lies in the reproducibility of the same within a strict tolerance degree, with predictable and repeatable costs, times, and results. Producing quality software is complicated and expensive; a craft approach cannot be followed. Trying to produce software using a craft process (without automation for build and automatic testing) is very risky and costly for the company. There are no shortcuts: developing quality code requires testing of methods, classes, components, and the system as a whole.

With the “Understand and Use Unit Testing” course, you will learn how to write automated tests for functions and classes, create code with fewer bugs, and in less time. The time spent writing unit tests will pay off with interest. Moreover, you will improve the documentation of the code and produce code and software of excellence.
