Early Praise for The Art of Unit Testing
“The Art of Unit Testing provides a thorough, incremental introduction to writing tests as part of the programming process. Programmers looking to write their first test will find easy-to-follow instructions, while those who have been testing for a while will find ideas for refining their technique”
Kent Beck, Three Rivers Institute
“Beautifully crafted, detailed unit testing masterpiece. Bravo, Bravo, Bravo!”
Mohammad Azam, Microsoft MVP, HighOnCoding
“This book tells all the truth about unit testing, even the unpleasant side of it.”
Franco Lombardo, Molteni Informatica
“Roy knows testing.”
Wendy Friedlander, Agile Solutions
“Unit testing, directly from theory to practice.”
Francesco Goggi, Software Engineer
When Roy Osherove told me that he was working on a book about unit testing, I was very happy to hear it. The testing meme has been rising in the industry for years, but there has been a relative dearth of material available about unit testing. When I look at my bookshelf, I see books that are about test-driven development specifically and books about testing in general, but until now there has been no comprehensive reference for unit testing—no book that introduces the topic and guides the reader from first steps to widely accepted best practices. The fact that this is true is stunning. Unit testing isn’t a new practice. How did we get to this point?
