Duration:  5 Days
Level:  I
Course Summary

This course teaches the student how to apply Test Driven Development and the Mockito framework in real life projects, using realistic, hands-on examples. In addition, Jenkins, SonarQube, JUnit, and Selenium are phased into a full test development and execution environment

Start writing clean, high quality code to apply Design Patterns and principles Add new features to your project by applying Test-first development- JUnit 4.0 and Mockito framework

Make legacy code testable and clean up technical debts

In Detail:

The usual life cycle of code involves adding code, breaking an existing functionality, fixing that and breaking a new area! This fragility can be fixed using automated tests and Test Driven Development.

TDD?s test first approach expedites the development process and unit tests act as safety nets for code refactoring and help in maintaining and extending the code. This makes TDD highly beneficial for new projects.

This course teaches you with a number of clear, step-by-step exercises that will help you to take advantage of the real power that is behind Test Driven Development and the Mockito framework. By attending this course, you will gain the knowledge that you need to use the Mockito framework in your project.
