What you'll learn

This course teaches how to build an application from the outside in - starting with tests targeting actual features or use cases of an application, but gradually working towards a more and more detailed specification of the components of an application. The focus is on the technical side of TDD, not the business side. Approximately half of the content is a series of C# demos, building a small RESTful service from scratch.
