Learn Agile Java development Best Practices: Unit Testing, Continuous Integration, Refactoring and more...
Our Test-Driven Development with Java training course is aimed at individuals and teams who are transitioning from developing Java applications using more traditional methods such as the Waterfall model. You'll get hands-on Unit Testing experience with tools such as jUnit, and continuous integration and build automation with Jenkins, SVN and Maven.
Test Driven Development (TDD) is synoymous with Agile software development, and as its name suggests, promotes a "test-first" mentality. Test Driven Development aims to produce better code from the outset, driving towards more efficient and leaner software, getting to market faster, and with less time spent fixing bugs after release.
If you are interested in custom / on-site Test Driven Development with Java training for any size of team, please get in touch - we would be glad to help build a course that meets your learning requirements.
We can take into account your existing technical skills, preferred development tools, project requirements and timeframes, and specific topics of interest to tailor the most relevant and focussed course for you.
By the end of this course, you will have learnt about:
- TDD Essentials
- Refactoring Code
- Unit Testing with jUnit
- Decoupling Test Data from Test Code
- Test Automation
- Continuous Integration
