Features: In this book, you will learn to solve complex tasks from simple to complex, writing automated test programs before coding. Implement a new idea each time, organically extending the original design through continuous refactoring, creating tests for more complex logic, including reflection and exceptions. Determine what tests to write using patterns, and create tests using the core structure of many programmer-oriented testing tools—xUnit. The book tracks two TDD projects from start to finish, describing techniques that are easy for programmers to adopt and significantly improve work quality. Examples are provided after each TDD-specific pattern and refactoring. By focusing on flexible methodologies and rapid development strategies, readers are certainly inspired to embrace these underutilized but powerful techniques. This book is Kent Beck’s new work, consistently a bestseller on Amazon, and is part of the renowned Master Signature Series by Addison-Wesley Publishing Company.
