Test-driven development (TDD) is a software design technique based on tests that promotes an iterative way of writing software. This course will teach you to use TDD using Go—one of the most popular languages.

In this course, you will first learn about the fundamentals of Go, including packages, standard library, and error handling. Then, you will go through a comprehensive guide on writing test cases using Go, including subtests, table-driven tests, skipping, benchmarking, fuzzing, dependency injection, and mocking in unit tests. Next, you will look at multiple TDD katas and learn about the best practices for making most of the TDD approach. Finally, you will build a TODO application by following the test-driven development approach. This application will be a REST API that exposes actions getting TODOs. 

After completing this course, you will have the skills needed to build reliable applications using the test-driven development approach.

Learning Test-Driven Development with Go

## Course Summary
Congratulations on finishing the course! Let’s recap the concepts covered in this course:
- Fundamentals of the Go programming language, such as packages of the Go standard library, the error handling among others.
- Deep dive into tests, including how to write them what magic numbers and code smells are, and different kinds of code coverage.
- Theoretical explanation of the test-driven development and its stages.
- How to write tests in Go. Different kinds of tests we might write (e.g. benchmarking, fuzzing).
- The `testify` package and the `go test` command.
- Covered more advanced topics such as embedding, interfaces, dependency injection, mocks, and Web API.
- Gain familiarity with the TDD through katas and real-world examples.
