Posts Tagged ‘Unit Tests’

Last Tuesday I led a training session about Test Driven Development (TDD) in general, and Unit Tests in particular. I presented a series of best practices related to unit tests, as a set of “receipts”.
The target audience is developpers, either Java coders or other ones. The exercises have no interest from a Java perspective, but are intented at teaching the main concepts and tricks of unit testing.

The exercices are the following:

• basics
• methods within methods
• layers and mocks
• private methods
• exceptions
• loggers
• new Date()

Here is the presentation:
