Effective Unit Testing: A guide for Java Developers
Effective Unit Testing: A guide for Java Developers is written to show how to write good tests tests that are concise and to the point, expressive, useful, and maintainable. Inspired by Roy Osherove’s bestselling The Art of Unit Testing, this book focuses on tools and practices specific to the Java world. It introduces you to emerging techniques like behavior-driven development and specification by example, and shows you how to add robust practices into your toolkit.
Test the components before you assemble them into a full application, and you’ll get better software. For Java developers, there’s now a decade of experience with well-crafted tests that anticipate problems, identify known and unknown dependencies in the code, and allow you to test components both in isolation and in the context of a full application.
Effective Unit Testing: A guide for Java Developers teaches Java developers how to write unit tests that are concise, expressive, useful, and maintainable. Offering crisp explanations and easy-to-absorb examples, it introduces emerging techniques like behavior-driven development and specification by the valuable example. Programmers who are already unit testing will learn the current state of the art. Those who are new to the game will learn practices that will serve them well for the rest of their career.
