Unit Testing from Setup to Deployment by Mark Niebergall (in person meetup!)

Unit Testing from Setup to Deployment

Starting unit testing on a project can seem like a daunting task, and earning team and leadership buy-in can be challenging. We'll walk-through setup with composer, creating the first test, restructuring existing classes with dependency injection to allow unit testing, and releasing code confidently with test coverage. We'll also discuss overcoming common biases, unit testing challenges, and shortcomings of unit testing.
