Unit Testing a Spring Application

Heads up! This course may be archived and/or unavailable.

This course is a part of Java Web Development, a 19-course Track series from Treehouse.

Though extensive knowledge about how to code a fancy Spring MVC application can impress a lot of folks, you'll need to add unit testing to your app to ensure proper functionality and stability. During this workshop we'll apply the unit testing knowledge you already have to a provided Spring application, testing our controllers, services, and DAOs. In addition, we'll make use of mock objects to "fake" the functionality of application components that aren't being directly tested.
