Effective Software Testing: A Developer's Guide

In Effective Software Testing you will learn how to: Engineer tests with a much higher chance of finding bugs Read code coverage metrics and use them to improve your test suite Understand when to use unit tests, integration tests, and system tests Use mocks and stubs to simplify your unit testing Think of pre-conditions, post-conditions, invariants, and contracts Implement property-based tests Utilize coding practices like dependency injection and hexagonal architecture that make your software easier to test Write good and maintainable test code Effective Software Testing teaches you a systematic approach to software testing. YouGÇÖll master easy-to-apply techniques to create strong test suites that are specifically engineered for your code. Following real-world use cases and detailed code samples, youGÇÖll soon be engineering tests that find the bugs hiding in edge cases and the parts of code you would never think of testing! Along the way, youGÇÖll develop an intuition for testing that can save years of learning by trial and error. Go beyond unit tests! Great software testing makes the entire development process more efficient, from understanding your code before you write it to catching bugs in tricky corner cases.Effective Software Testing teaches you a systematic approach to software testing.
