Unit Test Training
This training course introduces practice-oriented unit tests and test-driven development (TDD). Based on two thoroughgoing examples, participants learn how to develop using unit tests for new software (greenfield development) and how to deal with existing complex legacy code bases (brownfield development).

Description
Unit testing is known as one of the most effective agile development practices. Not only do code bases with higher levels of testing typically have fewer bugs, they also enable developers to locate and fix existing bugs more quickly. The use of unit testing thus ensures both higher-quality software and faster development.
This training course introduces practice-oriented unit tests and test-driven development (TDD). Based on two thoroughgoing examples, participants learn how to develop using unit tests for new software (greenfield development) and how to deal with existing complex legacy code bases (brownfield development).

Why inovex Academy?
Our offerThe inovex Academy has set itself the task of passing on knowledge about methods and technologies that we already use successfully in our projects.
Curated content
Our trainers create a customized training offer based on your requirements.
Customizable tech stack
In exclusive trainings, we can consider your tech stack for the training content.
Individual assistance
If needed, we can tailor the training to a specific use case of your company and work directly based on your data.
Our training approach
From the needs analysis to the awarding of certificates, we offer customized training courses, flexibly designed and carried out according to your requirements.
If you are interested in in-house training, we will start by identifying your needs and discussing your objectives. This discussion forms the basis for an initial offer.
As soon as the framework data has been clarified, our trainers start adapting the training content. Many of our training courses have a modular structure and offer the opportunity to design the agenda flexibly. Training courses that prepare for certifications, on the other hand, are less flexible. Here, however, you can set the content focus according to your wishes.
You will receive all relevant information in advance of the training. The training will then take place in the room of your choice and at the agreed time. Our trainers will adapt to your requirements.
After completing the training, all participants receive a certificate confirming their participation. You will also have the opportunity to give us feedback on the content and the course. We are always happy to receive praise and suggestions for improvement.
