Benefits: This course equips learners with the ability to deliver reliable software rapidly by mastering testing strategies across the MERN and NestJS ecosystems. Students will gain hands-on experience with the testing pyramid, writing unit tests with Jest, API contract testing with Supertest, and end-to-end flows with Cypress. They will also learn effective mocking techniques, apply TDD/BDD workflows, and implement snapshot testing in React. Beyond functional correctness, the course emphasizes database testing with containers, CI/CD automation, coverage analysis, and quality gates. By the end, participants will be confident in building robust test suites that accelerate delivery while ensuring quality and stability.
