Look inside
It’s almost showtime! TechPower, a consulting company, has a partially implemented music-sharing platform, created in Scala, that leverages the language’s combination of object-oriented programming and the functional paradigm. As a software engineer at TechPower, your task is to ensure the prototype’s codebase hits a high note before going live. With the help of the Scala ecosystem libraries, you’ll design and create test specifications and samples, keeping in mind functionality, possible outcomes, and data values. You’ll implement your tests using SimpleBuild Tool (SBT) or IntelliJ IDEA, debug them, check corner cases, and verify that you’ve covered all reasonable scenarios. When you’re done, TechPower’s music-sharing platform will be robust, reliable, and ready for the spotlight!
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.
prerequisites
This liveProject is for beginner-level developers who know the basics of at least one language and are interested in learning Scala as well as the functional approach to system design. To begin these liveProjects you’ll need to be familiar with the following:
TOOLS- Programming language basics (syntax, data types, implementing algorithms)
- Bash basics (installation, execution of commands and scripts)
- OOP basics (main principles, classes and objects, class relationships)
- Intermediate software engineering (function design and implementation, algorithms, and data structures)
you will learn
In this liveProject, you’ll learn to improve the performance and reliability of Scala code, using Scala tools to design and implement tests.
- Design and implement test specifications and samples
- Identify bugs and other code issues and debug them
- Check corner cases of functions
- Ensure tests cover all reasonable scenarios
