Learn How to Use Test-Driven Development Techniques to Create High-Quality JavaScript Applications

Overview

Test-Driven Development for JavaScript LiveLessons brings you step-by-step knowledge to create high-quality JavaScript applications. The course teaches you how to apply test-driven technologies to create reliable and verifiable JavaScript solutions that are maintainable and adhere to best practices.

JavaScript has become an indispensable language in modern-day computing. Writing JavaScript is relatively straightforward but writing high-quality JavaScript and testing it thoroughly is much harder. Test-Driven Development for JavaScript LiveLessons uses Jest for defining and running JavaScript and TypeScript tests. It also covers how to use Jest to test many popular types of JavaScript solutions, including Node.js applications on the server and React and Angular solutions at the client.

Taught by experienced trainer and author, Andy Olsen, this course is your complete guide to mastering writing high-quality JavaScript. The course has hands-on demos throughout the lessons for better understanding of the topic areas.
