Workshop description
Tests are essential but seem hard. Don't worry, they don't have to be. This workshop focuses on the foundation that makes writing Unit Tests easy and enjoyable. You'll learn practical techniques to transform difficult-to-test code into naturally testable components, making writing tests more effective and less frustrating. By the end of this online workshop, you'll not only write but also refactor code into testable code. If you're new to testing or have been struggling with difficult-to-test codebases, you'll learn the skills to write simple, modular code that's test-ready from day one.
