Look inside

In this liveProject, you’ll replace two common testing anti-patterns while also creating new features for a Java Spring e-commerce application. Testing anti-patterns can be the bane of development, slowing deliveries while providing no benefit to software quality. You’ll use Test-Driven Development to balance delivering new functionalities with improving code design.

This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.

book resources

When you start your liveProject, you get full access to the following books for 90 days.
