  Test Driven

  is the first one-stop shop for Java developers wanting a comprehensive

  understanding of how to apply test driven development (TDD) methodology

  to Java. This book takes readers from basic theory to practical techniques to

  tool support and how-to's for applying TDD with what are often thought of as

  being difficult technology. It's also among the first to cover acceptance

  test driven development (ATDD). Readers can use the book for getting started

  with TDD and ATDD, and afterwards for help in solving technical problems

  such as, how can I test drive code that uses technology X?

  Test Driven takes readers new to TDD and Acceptance TDD and helps them

  become seasoned test driven developers ready to tackle any Java or J2EE project.

  Readers will learn the simple rules and underlying dynamics that make TDD

  such a powerful technique. Along the way the author expertly breaks down those

  myths that say some J2EE technologies cannot be done test-first, showing how

  to test drive J2EE components just like regular Java code. He also gives comprehensive

  coverage to the latest EJB specification, web components from plain Java

  Servlets to the coolest open source web framework on the block, and data access

  solutions from raw JDBC to fancy object-relational mapping frameworks. In

  addition to the usual J2EE technologies, multithreaded programs and Java

  Swing get a full treatment, too. Readers will also learn how a technique called

  acceptance test driven development applies the ideas of TDD to the overall

  software development process, implementing features test-first.
