Course Overview
In test-driven development, tests are written early and testing is performed continuously during the development process. Problems are discovered early and corrected when they are found. In this class, you will learn the methodology of test-driven development and to use the unit testing framework that comes with Visual Studio.
This is practical C# training, with many example programs and tests written in C#, including a cumulative case study. The goal is to quickly bring you up to speed in doing unit testing in your .NET development projects.
