This course is designed to bring about a fundamental change to the way developers go about their day-to-day business of writing software code. Instead of thinking about unit tests as at best an afterthought, having already written the application code, the course aims to turn this practice on its head, and get programmers to write tests before the code to be tested.

Originating in the Agile methodology of Extreme Programming, Test Driven Development (TDD) has become accepted as a mainstream best practice, and is being adopted by major organisations as means of improving code quality and developer productivity.

Because Test Driven Development involves such a major inversion of most developers' ways of thinking and working, the course is strongly exercise based - it is necessary to spend a large part of the two days of the workshop practicing test-first development.

Typically developers find TDD initially strange, but go on to find it quite liberating, and become 'test infected' (unable to write code without having first devised unit tests.)

The exercises are based on the Java programming language, and use the tools most central to TDD in Java, including Eclipse (students are free to use tools they are comfortable with), JUnit and some of its extensions, Hamcrest, mocking with jMock and developing system level TDD scripts using fitnesse.

Competence in Java, or similar object-oriented programming language.

At the end of this course you will have:

  • The ability to take the TDD approach to software development
  • An understanding of the key techniques and strategies of TDD, and principles of refactoring code
  • The ability to write unit tests in JUnit versions 4 and 3
  • The ability to use mock objects in unit tests
  • Work with fitnesse to develop system level tests
  • Track down bugs quickly using JUnit and fitnesse

Unit tests and the xUnit framework.

  • JUnit overview
  • The TestCase and Assert classes
  • Developing a JUnit 4 test and test suite for a class
  • Java 5 features used in JUnit 4
  • JUnit 4 versions of tests and test suites
  • JUnit and ant

Motivation for using Mock Objects.

  • Stubs and Mocks
  • Worked example
  • EasyMock argument matchers
  • Mocking and Static methods.
  • When to use Mock Objects
  • Drawbacks of Mock Objects

Test Driven Development.

  • Test Driven Development
  • Benefits of TDD
  • TDD Strategies - with JUnit and with fitnesse
  • TDD Process: Worked Examples with JUnit
  • TDD Process: Worked Examples with fitnesse
  • TDD Testing Best Practices
  • Exception tests
  • Performance tests
  • Fixing broken code in a speedy manner, successfully tracking down bugs using a combination of unit tests and TDD scripts

  • Benefits of Refactoring Code.

Conclusion

  • Pros and Cons of TDD

The workshop is strongly oriented towards lab work. In order to reverse deeply ingrained habits, of writing code first and tests only as a possible afterthought, it is essential to give developers as much time as possible working in a test-first manner.

Test Driven Development in a Java Environment Training Course in Norway

The Nordic country Norway, is in Northern Europe. Known for its stunning natural beauty, including fjords, mountains, and forests, Norway is also famous for its high standard of living and strong social welfare system. Norway's capital and largest city is Oslo. Tromsø, Bergen, Trondheim and Stavanger are the other tourist attracting cities of Norway.

Norway is a constitutional monarchy with King Harald V as the head of state. The country has a population of 5,425,270 as of January 2022. Norway is a relatively small country and has a relatively low population density, with much of its land area covered by forests, mountains, and fjords. Despite its small size, Norway is known for its rich cultural heritage, strong economy, and stunning natural beauty, which attracts millions of visitors every year. This Nordic country is also known for its winter sports, such as skiing and snowboarding, and is a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts.

Norway has a long history of invention and is home to numerous more top-tier tech firms and research facilities, such as; Kongsberg Gruppen, Telenor, Atea, Evry and Gjensidige Forsikring.

Due to the country's high latitude, there are large seasonal variations in daylight. From late May to late July, the sun never completely descends beneath the horizon. Which attracts many tourists around the world to see the "Land of the Midnight Sun". Tourists mainly visit Sognefjord, Norway's Largest Fjord, Pulpit Rock, one of the most photographed sites in Norway and of course the capital; Oslo.

Oslo is considered the business center of Norway. It is the country's largest city and the capital of Norway. The city is home to many of Norway's largest and most important companies, as well as several international organizations and research institutions. Additionally, the city is a popular tourist destination, known for its scenic location on the Oslo Fjord, its many museums and cultural attractions, and its vibrant nightlife and dining scene. Some of the most popular museums in Oslo are The Norwegian Museum of Cultural History, The Nobel Peace Center, The National Museum of Art, Architecture, and Design, The Munch Museum and The Vigeland Museum.
