That was the best introduction to tests I could be looking for! You nailed the explanation on why to write tests and introducing it to someone who wants to learn and implement TDD to their programming techniques. Thank you!

[@sammygopeh7578]

This is literally the best intro to testing anyone could ask for! Thank you so much

[@SamMeechWard]

Glad you liked everything so much

Yor channel is gold. Clear explanations with clear examples. Keep it up.

[@edward8064]

The intro is exactly explaining my pain doing manual testing. It is super tedious when the feature I want to test is not in the first page of my web.

[@alexanderbell7736]

That was great. Now I know what automated unit testing is. I'm going to try jest in my next project.

[@mohitsaud2071]

Clearly defined, and well explained. A great tutorial.

I usually break my backend folders to having 1 for routes, controllers, models. If I remove a function from my controller to test it in isolation, what folder name would be a good place to store it in?

[@nemanjadjoric8765]

Awesome ....!!! Thank you a lot !!! :)

Seem to have some issues with starting the application? When installed and started i receive a "Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)"

[@ahmedelgaidi]

Super amazing

[@SamMeechWard]

🤗

[@OmgImAlexis]

I don't see what part of this comes under the "automated" part.

[@SamMeechWard]

Because instead of a human doing the testing, code is doing the testing. That’s what programmers mean when they automate things. Code do the thing instead of human.
