Course Description

Take your React code to the next level by learning Test Driven Development (TDD) with Jest and Enzyme! Jest is a powerful, flexible testing framework, and Enzyme provides tools to test React and Redux applications. In this course, you will learn to test:

Connected and unconnected components
Component state and Redux state
Action creators and reducers
Complex action creators that use Redux Thunk and Axios
Action creators called from connected components
React hooks, including useEffect, useState and useReducer
React context, including context with embedded state
Using Jest mock functions to spy on methods, control their return values or simply prevent them from running during the test

Please Note: This course does not cover Jest snapshots, as they are not compatible with the TDD mode of testing.
Why Learn to Test?
Test Driven Development will help you write better organized code that's easier to maintain, which will save you time in the long run. Your tests provide value to your software development team, since others know they can rely on your code. Employers want developers with testing skills!
Learn the Reasons behind the Syntax
This course discusses tradeoffs when considering different approaches to testing, leaving you confident in the testing choices you make. Furthermore, you will deepen your understanding of React and Redux as we dig into how and why we test each aspect.
Practice your New Skills
You will also have opportunities to practice what you've learned. There are occasional "quizzes" while we're building the course projects, where you can apply what you learned, and then watch a video to see the solution. There are also two sets of challenges to extend the course projects, with solutions on GitHub. Who this course is for:

Programmers interested in improving their React apps with testing

Time: 12h

My teaching career started when I played school with my (not very willing) younger brother as a kid. I gradually expanded my horizons to teaching (marginally) more willing high school students, and more recently have taught software development at various boot camps to delightfully willing adults. I have been working in the software industry on and off since the mid-90s, which predates the birth of many coders in the San Francisco tech scene.

Really well thought out and structured and so well explained. I loved the code plans at the beginning of the sections as they really helped set the scene and were great for referring back to as coding progressed. It's been so satisfying taking what was covered into the course and using it in my day job. It's also great to see that the course has been updated to ensure it stays relevant. Can't recommend it enough

By Tisha Murvihill on

What a fantastic course! Testing has long been lacking in my coding and I can't wait to implement all I have learned in my future projects. Thank you Bonnie!!

By Sargis Stepanyan on

The course is very good and effective. The only thing that I want to ask is to focuse more on hooks testing such as useEffect(testing of side-effects from this hook e.g. updating state on the prop change), useMemo, useCallback. Thank you very much! Best regards.

By Marc Beermann on

A great course, taught in a very clear way that follows a logical progression. I highly recommend it.

By Ricardo Daniel Garcia Navarro on

It is accomplishing all my expectations.I think it could have been better if we had started a new project since Section 10.

The course itself provided a lot of valuable data and I can already feel I've grown quite a bit.The only issue I have with this course is that it is really slow paced (12h), mostly because the author is explaining some utterly basic things attendees should already now about.Other than that, the material is really nice and I'm glad I bought it.

By Rick Segrest on

Very helpful in understanding different React coding approaches, TDD, and how to build effective tests.

By Michal Janek on

Course is great although by the 80th video i am already drunk and by the end I will either end up in hospital or dead.Well nevermind that and as the instructor says: "Have a drink if you caught that one!"

By Kristian Lonergan on

Feel like this course could be more concise, code quality could be better. Lecture makes a lot of mistakes which wastes some time (visual code has a lot of helpful extensions which can prevent these issue, should consider making the move)

By Shaheen Rehman on

It was an extremely helpful and informative course. It helped to get a good idea of experiencing TDD using Jest & Enzyme.

By Andrew Smith on

It can be difficult to find comprehensive resources on testing React apps. This course is comprehensive, practical, high quality, and well-edited. The instructor is both knowledgeable and engaging. I hope she decides to create some more courses.
