Test-Driven Development in AngularJS

Why use test-driven development? In this short video from my recent course, I'll examine what test-driven development is and why you should use it.

Also, testing in Angular is not the same as testing a normal JavaScript application. There are many frameworks that are built specifically to test Angular apps. So in this video, I'll also give a birds-eye view of those libraries so that you can get a sense of the landscape of testing for Angular.

AngularJS is one of the most widely-used web frameworks today. Part of what makes Angular so amazing is that it is a framework written from the ground up with testing in mind. In the full course, AngularJS for Test-Driven Development, we'll take a practical, hands-on approach to using Angular to its full testing capabilities.

You will learn how to build an app with good test coverage, how to write effective tests, and how to run tests automatically. Automated testing allows us to write code that is more reliable, more effective and easier to maintain.

In order to test Angular properly, you need to be familiar with a variety of libraries, many from the Angular team itself. This course will familiarize you with all the testing frameworks you'll need: Mocha, Chai, Protractor, Karma and more.

By the end of this video series, you will be able to integrate into a workplace team using Angular test-driven development, and use testing in your own projects to maximize your effectiveness.
