Course Overview

The complete guide to testing javascript & node applications

Become job ready for advanced nodejs development by mastering testing from scratch, jest, cypress, mocha and more.

When I started learning how to test, everything looked so easy. 

Assert 2 + 2 = 4 ? 

Sure, piece of cake. But when I was faced with a real world application, this was terrifying. I couldn't catch up at my job. It was depressing. I didn't understand what mocking was. Neither did I understand topics like stubbing or spying

That's why I created this course. You are going to start from scratch, understanding exactly what a test is, what an assertion is, what errors are, and then we'll move on to more basic topics like:

  • Unit testing

  • Test runners

  • Assertion libraries

  • Test suites and organising tests

  • Running tests

To master these concepts, we'll write unit tests for real world functions, and understand exactly how testing feels when working on a real world project.

We'll have a full-stack real-world advanced javascript application, build with the latest features of Javascript, and we'll clone this project, and write tests for it from scratch.

There will be plenty of assignments and code reviews, to make sure you understand exactly what is being thought in the course.

After our feet are wet , and we can write basic tests, and after solving multiple exercises, we'll move on to a more real world approach, covering advanced topics like: 

  • Feature / integration testing

  • Mocking

  • Spying & stubbing

  • Asynchronous tests

  • Database testing

  • End to end testing

We'll then dive into TEST DRIVEN JAVASCRIPT DEVELOPMENT, understanding the RED, GREEN, REFACTOR TESTING CYCLE, and how to apply this into our projects to build more robust and bug free applications. 

So what are you waiting for ? Are you ready to become an advanced javascript engineer? Enrol now and let's get started !

    This course is very very good if you wanted to learn testing from basics to all advanced level. First I am confused if I get whole testing by this small course or not , but really course size not make any difference. Instructor is crystal clear. and resources are great.

    Good intro into cypress testing. I can't give this course 5 stars because there is one anti-pattern with cypress selectors: https://docs.cypress.io/guides/references/best-practices.html#Selecting-Elements But other than that, very informative

    The lessons in this course are a great resource for TDD. I have already used what I've learned to improve my applications.
