Java Testing training is an intensive and highly practical training that presents a number of modern practices for developing and testing Java applications. Arm the developers on your team with the best practices, patterns and tools (many of them are free for course participants) for delivering error free code. This course introduces developers to techniques, tools and patterns for using testing to deliver good, defect-free code as fast as possible. Our instructors have many years industrial and working experience in complex development projects.

Skill level: Intermediate
Duration: 2 x 8 hours (2 full days)
Prerequisites: intermediate level in Java programming language and the desire to do no more than the simplest possible thing that will work.
