C++ Unit Testing Fundamentals Using Catch

Course Overview
Hi everyone. My name is Dror Helper and welcome to my course C++ Unit Testing Fundamentals Using Catch. I'm a software developer, architect, and a consultant who cares about his code and enjoys teaching other developers how to write better code. This course is not about yet another unit testing framework, it's about writing good unit testing C++, because I found out that writing readable, sustainable and robust unit tests is crucial for successful software development. In this course we are going to learn how to write good robust unit tests using Catch, a simple to use yet powerful and flexible unit testing framework for C++. Some of the major topics that we will cover include what makes CATCH different from other unit testing frameworks and in fact what makes it better than other unit testing frameworks? How to write good unit tests and what does it mean a good unit test? How to run your tests from command lines using Catch and using special tags, and why we care about test failures and how to get the most out of them, and finally we'll talk about how to reduce duplicate code in your unit tests while maintaining readability. By the end of this course you'll know how to write unit tests in C++ using CATCH in order to create better and cleaner C++ code. Before beginning this course, you should be familiar with C++, so in case you need a refresher, check out one of the excellent C++ Pluralsight courses on the subject. I hope you'll join me in this journey to learn all about unit testing and what makes Catch an excellent unit testing framework with the C++ Unit Testing Fundamentals Using Catch course at Pluralsight.
