Tired of console.log-ing your way out of trouble?
Weary from constant fear of cross-browser issues? Scared of making
even the slightest change to production code?
Test-Driven JavaScript Development teaches you
how to solve those issues and more using unit tests and
TDD. Rich with examples, the book provides a solid foundation on
automated testing, a test-driven walk-through of JavaScript's
unique qualities, and five practical examples of building solid,
reusable, cross-browser JavaScript using TDD.
Free sample chapter: Chapter 1: Automated Testing
A simplified and well-explained book about one of the most underestimated parts of any application life-cycle. Christian Johansen brings real world examples, simple to advanced, and a useful library together in one place. I couldn't expect more from Test-Driven JavaScript Development. Excellent learning and definitively easy to read.
