Résumé

Test-Driven Development (TDD) is a practical way to produce better code faster. TDD is the realization that tests can be used to develop complex software systems in a simple, incremental way. Although the ideas of TDD are easy to understand, its application in the real world requires not only an understanding of the concepts of TDD, but also a good knowledge of certain tools needed to run the tests, proper setup of the development environment, and an understanding of how to use the tests to improve the design of the software.

This book provides a practical guide to implementing TDD on a real Java application, with emphasis on implementing TDD for a J2EE application. You'll learn the details of the TDD process, understand what tools are needed to create a good TDD environment, and see how to use those tools to develop your code in a simple step-by-step manner. J2EE applications present some special challenges to using TDD, so this book will also give you the knowledge needed to be able to use TDD to develop servlets, JSPs, and EJBs, as well as provide a section explaining how to use TDD to help integrate the many pieces of a J2EE application.

Of course, words and pictures are sometimes not enough to explain the concepts and tools being presented, so this book contains a lot of real-life code examples as well as hands-on exercises that will help you explore the TDD process and give you the experience you need to truly understand it. No matter what your experience, learning to use TDD will provide a concrete way to help you simplify your development process, create better software, and give you the tools you need to become a better developer.
