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.
