Building a Web App Guided by Tests

This is the page on TCIAS for my little book “Building a Web App Guided By Tests”. The purpose of this book is to guide you through building a simple weather app using tests and continuously deploying to a Heroku instance.

As you read through the chapters you will learn:

  • how to create write functional tests with cucumber.js, selenium and webdriver.js
  • how to write unit and integration tests using karma and jasmine
  • run continuous unit and integration tests using Codeship
  • deploy to a Heroku instance

To read the book you can try either of the links below. The Gitbook link allows you to both read the book online, as well as download formats for your devices and e-readers. The LeanPub link only provides download options. Why two? Well Gitbook provides an awesome interface to read the book online, whereas at this stage I prefer LeanPub’s e-reader formats.

You can also see the book over at my Github repository.

I have also created a simple Facebook page for the book. There’s also a corresponding Google+ page.

If you have any suggestions or feedback feel free to leave a comment here, the Facebook page or raise an issue on the Github repository.
