Our Verdict
This Java TDD course offers a solid introduction to Test-Driven Development concepts and common best practices, but could benefit from more interactive examples and improved audio quality. In particular, the course lacks practical challenges and exercises for certain advanced topics, such as testing with Spring Boot and JPA. Additionally, non-native English speakers may struggle to understand the instructor's accent at times, and the audio levels can be inconsistent. Despite these issues, the calculator example is helpful for understanding TDD concepts in a live coding setting. Overall, this course serves as a useful starting point for Java developers looking to learn about Test-Driven Development but may need additional resources or practice exercises to fully grasp advanced topics and techniques.
