The Pragmatic Programmers classic is back! Freshly updated for modern
software development, Pragmatic Unit Testing in Java 8 With JUnit
teaches you how to write and run easily maintained unit tests in JUnit
with confidence. You'll learn mnemonics to help you know what tests to
write, how to remember all the boundary conditions, and what the
qualities of a good test are. You'll see how unit tests can pay off by
allowing you to keep your system code clean, and you'll learn how to
handle the stuff that seems too tough to test.
Pragmatic Unit Testing in Java 8 With JUnit steps you through all the
important unit testing topics. If you've never written a unit test,
you'll see screen shots from Eclipse, IntelliJ IDEA, and NetBeans that
will help you get past the hard part--getting set up and started.
Once past the basics, you'll learn why you want to write unit tests and
how to effectively use JUnit. But the meaty part of the book is its
collected unit testing wisdom from people who've been there, done that
on production systems for at least 15 years: veteran author and
developer Jeff Langr, building on the wisdom of Pragmatic Programmers
Andy Hunt and Dave Thomas. You'll learn:
- How to craft your unit tests to minimize your effort in maintaining
them.
- How to use unit tests to help keep your system clean.
- How to test the tough stuff.
- Memorable mnemonics to help you remember what's important when writing
unit tests.
- How to help your team reap and sustain the benefits of unit testing.
You won't just learn about unit testing in theory--you'll work through
numerous code examples. When it comes to programming, hands-on is the
only way to learn!
