Test Driven Development in C++ with Google Test

Overview

Master TDD in C++ with Google Test/Mock. Write tests first, implement code to pass, then refactor. Use Google Mock for test doubles to isolate components. TDD leads to cleaner, maintainable code, early bug detection, and better development efficiency.

This course focuses on practicing the core TDD workflow: "Red-Green-Refactor." You'll write failing tests (Red), implement code to pass them (Green), and refactor while keeping tests passing (Refactor). No new concepts are introduced—just hands-on practice with various requirements to sharpen your TDD skills.
