Master Package

The master package helps you to write even less test code and to transform your tests into executable specifications. After you have finished all lessons of this package, you know how you can leverage the power of Groovy programming language and Spock Framework when you are writing tests for Spring web applications.

You will also have access to a monthly webinar that helps you to take your testing skills to the next level. You can participate in these webinars for the next 12 months after your purchase.

This package consists of seven topics:

• The Introduction to Spock Framework topic helps you get started with Spock Framework. After you have finished this lesson, you can create specification classes and specify the behavior of the system under specification by using feature methods. Also, this topic helps you to write parameterized tests with Spock Framework. Finally, you will learn to compile and run your unit tests with Maven and Gradle.
• The Creating Test Doubles With Spock Framework topic describes how you can create stubs, mocks, and spies with Spock Framework.
• The Writing Unit Tests With Spock Framework topic helps you to write unit tests for normal Spring MVC controllers and Spring MVC REST APIs. To be more specific, this topic explains how you can create test data by leveraging the less verbose syntax of Groovy programming, describes how you can configure the Spring MVC Test framework, and demonstrates how you can write unit tests with Spock Framework.
• The Introduction to Integration Testing – Spock Edition topic describes how you can create separate source and resource directories for your unit and integration tests, and explains how you can compile and run them by using either Maven or Gradle.
• The Writing Integration Tests With Spock Framework topic describes how you can write integration tests for Spring web applications and Spring REST APIs. You will learn to configure the Spring MVC Test framework and use DbUnit with Spock framework. Also, this topic describes how you write integration tests for Spring powered repositories and Spring MVC controllers.
• The Writing End-to-End Tests With Spock Framework topic helps you to write end-to-end tests for Spring and Spring Boot web applications. This topic starts by describing how you can run your end-to-end tests by using either Maven or Gradle. You will also learn to configure Selenium WebDriver when you are writing end-to-end tests for Spring or Spring Boot web applications. Finally, this topic demonstrates how you can write end-to-end tests with Spock framework.
• The Bonus Webinars 2018 topic contains the bonus webinars that will be recorded during 2018. These webinars help you to use the testing enchancements provided by Spring Boot.
