Learning technics, to apply BDD and TDD where business logic is coded in Javascript, introduction to the Jasmine library.

Outline

Agile practitioners today are comfortable with applying practices such as behaviour-driven development (BDD) and test-driven development (TDD) to incrementally build robust, object-oriented code in server-side environments like Java and C#.

Increasingly, however, development teams are being asked to deliver highly-interactive rich internet web applications that present information in visually exciting ways. As application-logic necessarily moves from the server-side to the web browser, agile development teams are faced with the dilema of leaving behind the techniques and tools they are comfortable with, in pursuit of the compelling user-experience that their customers want.

This need not be the case. In this tutorial/demo, I will show you how to apply BDD and TDD to incrementally build a rich internet application based on OO Javascript, HTML5 and CSS, utilising framework Jasmine.

I will be using a real-world application(HeatMap) from the trading domain for this tutorial, where I will also make use of new technologies such as websockets and knockout.js.

The focus of the exercise is on applying BDD and TDD to writing object-oriented Javascript code.

Requirements

Basic knowledge of Javascript language and writing it in object oriented way.
Awareness of BDD and/or TDD practices, will ease the learning.
