Testing in Kotlin and YOU

What options do you have for testing your code in Kotlin? Some people will probably just jump straight to JUnit as a testing framework, but did you know you that Spek offers an alternative approach with a domain specific language (DSL) for tests? Your choice of tools doesn't stop here. You have alternative assertion libraries, mocking frameworks and more that are different from what you may be used to in Java. The builder pattern is also even simpler in Kotlin, which make creating test data builders work like a charm. We will look at these topics and more! With examples ranging from small utility classes to integration tests with Spring.

Join us this time for a look at the testing possibilities you have in Kotlin. There will off course be pizza like usual ;)
