This Fireship video gives a quick but useful high-level explanation of Test Driven Development and should be added.

Because

I struggled a lot to understand some of the concepts and terms that were being thrown around. What is the difference between a unit test and an integration test? When would I need to use Setup and Teardown? This video really solidified my knowledge by:

  • Giving a high-level explanation of TDD. Basically explaining it in one sentence, which gave me an a-ha moment.
  • Explaining the different levels of testing, including unit testing, integration testing and E2E testing.
  • Provided useful examples of testing.
  • Provided a specific example of when you would need to use Setup & Teardown.
  • Provided some useful tips & tricks when using Jest.

This PR

  • Added a Fireship video on TDD to the additional resources-section.
