The 7 Stages of Unit Testing

In this talk Jorge will walk you through the most relevant aspects of introducing unit tests into a Android application.
– Understand why are tests needed.
– Be able to justify the “extra time” of writing tests.
– Learn what are the 3 types of tests and how to write them.
– Learn how to use architecture to make your code more testable
– Learn about the types of test doubles and how they can help you.
– Understand code coverage, what it means and how to improve it.

The session will be friendly to those new to unit testing and experienced veterans, including a demo of a fully tested project to show what can be done. Jorge will do some live coding and write the code in Kotlin, but he will answer related questions about Java.
