Unit Testing For Unity by Samuel Asher Rivello

Learn Unit Testing & Test-Driven-Development (TDD) | Unity-Specific Approach | With Sample Projects & Source-Code

Welcome to Unit Testing For Unity!

We all start projects with the best of intentions. But during development we often find our projects do not meet our expectations for organization, scalability, and for our quality of life as developers.

This course gives you the training to create and maintain robust Unity classes and architectures.

FEATURES:

• Rockstar content – Everything you DO need. Just the most relevant, powerful info!
• Punk-rock editing – Nothing you DON’T need. No “ums”, no waiting, no fluff!

BENEFITS OF UNIT TESTING:

• Early Bug Detection – Running unit tests after every build helps in identifying any breakage at the earliest possible instance, saving time and resources.
• Refactoring Confidence – With a comprehensive suite of unit tests, developers can refactor code more aggressively and with assurance, knowing tests will reveal any introduced errors.
• Better Design -Writing unit tests forces developers to consider the modularity and structure of their code, often leading to better-designed and more maintainable software.

BENEFITS OF TEST-DRIVEN-DEVELOPMENT (TDD):

• Improved Code Quality – TDD encourages simple designs and inspires confidence, as code changes are verified by tests frequently.
• Documentation Benefit – Tests written in TDD can serve as a form of documentation, showing how the system is intended to behave.
• Reduction in Errors – TDD typically results in a lower bug density in production, as tests are written before the code that must pass them.

TAKEAWAY:

• After this course you will be confident to design and develop well-designed and tested Unity classes. Learn to write robust C# code that your team will be proud of.

INCLUDED SECTIONS:

• Course Introduction – Set the vision and goals for the course. Learn the many benefits of MVC architecture for your projects
• Unity Overview – Review the popularity and power of Unity as a game engine. Discuss the structure of the systems within and how MVC architecture is a welcome addition
• Unit Testing Fundamentals – We’ll add the power of Unit Testing and Test-Driven Development ( TDD ). With this training you will naturally produce cleaner, more readable, and manageable code

INCLUDED UNITY C# SAMPLE PROJECTS:

• 1. Math System – A simple calculator without a rendered view. This is a great place to learn the fundamentals of testing without the complications of Unity MonoBehaviours or rendered graphics.
• 2. Character Basic – A game character that moves with user input. Add Unity MonoBehaviours and rendered graphics to the challenges of testing. Learn to master the challenges.
• 3. Character Advanced – A game character that moves with user input and physics. Learn to test asynchronous methods such as multi-frame movement.
