This course introduces the tools and techniques needed to write F# based unit tests. A special emphasis is placed on test driven development (TDD). Functional TDD is a testing approach that uses functional programming to unit test an application before developing it. Functional programming (as opposed to imperative, state-transition-style programming) in a language such as F# lends itself well to TDD because smaller, well-targeted tests can be written in isolation.

In this instructor-led, live training, participants will learn how to use F# to write unit tests that are direct and easy to understand.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Build a complete system out of small, isolated functions
• Express test cases as properties instead of examples
• Write test code without the need for mocks
• Reduce the need to control and check for side effects
• Use libraries such as NaturalSpec, FsCheck, FsTest, FsUnit and Unquote to facilitate test cases creation
• Use F# to overcome some of the problems associated with mainstream Test-driven Development (TDD)

Audience

• Test engineers

ScalaCheck is a library for carrying out automated, property-based testing for Scala or Java programs.

In this instructor-led, live training, participants will learn the benefits of and concepts behind property-based testing as they practice writing properties that lead to the automatic generation of test cases.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Write general properties that replace and/or compliment hand-written unit test cases
• Write tests at the higher level of property specifications
• Execute ScalaCheck as a standalone executabl, using the built-in command line test runner
• Integrate ScalaCheck with test frameworks such as ScalaTest, specs2 and LambdaTest
