Developer when seeing Change Request

Problem # 4

Delays in Schedule

• Unexpected Bugs

• Client frustration

• Delays in schedules

Where does it hurt?

What is Unit Test?

• Verifies an atomic piece of code

• Tests one specific behavior

• Each Test is autonomous [TestMethod] public void CheckPassword_ValidUser_ReturnTrue() { bool result = CheckPassword(“user”, “pass”); Assert.IsTrue(result); }

Does it take more time? Yes!

How can these unit tests help us?

Be Confident about our code.
