React and TDD: Craft Reliable, High-Quality Apps from Scratch!

Key Features:
- Master Test-Driven Development to build reliable, bug-free React apps.
- Write comprehensive tests to ensure maintainable, scalable React code.
- Leverage Jest and React Testing Library for efficient automated testing.
- Build real-world React applications by applying TDD principles end-to-end.

Book Description
Test-Driven Development (TDD) is an essential practice for creating reliable, bug-free React applications. By focusing on writing tests before code, TDD ensures that your application is not only functional but also scalable and maintainable.

"Mastering Test-Driven Development with React" is your comprehensive guide to learning and mastering Test-Driven Development (TDD) in React applications. You'll discover how to write tests before implementing code, helping you build reliable, maintainable React apps with confidence. By integrating TDD into your development process, you'll improve code quality, catch bugs early, and create more stable applications.

With practical, hands-on examples, you'll explore how to use popular tools like Jest, Mocha, and React Testing Library. You’ll dive into testing React components, hooks, API interactions, and managing state with Redux, all while learning techniques that you can apply to real-world projects.

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, this book will help you enhance your testing practices and build higher-quality React applications. You'll gain the tools and knowledge needed to seamlessly incorporate automated testing into your workflow, ensuring your React projects are robust, scalable, and easier to maintain.

This book assumes that you have a basic understanding of React.js development. If you are already familiar with React.js, you will be able to follow the examples and concepts with ease. The libraries we are going to use for writing test cases are Jest, Mocha, and Chai. While prior knowledge of these is not required, the book will introduce and explain these testing frameworks as we progress.

This book is composed of 9 chapters. It begins with an overview of Test-Driven Development and how to test React components. In the middle of the book, readers will prepare for developing the front-end of a Project Management System. By the end of the book, readers will have a fully tested and functional React application, equipped with the skills to apply TDD effectively in real-world projects.

What you will learn:
- Write effective unit tests for React components using Jest and React Testing Library (RTL), ensuring high-quality, bug-free code.
- Apply Test-Driven Development (TDD) principles to create reliable, maintainable, and scalable React applications.
- Debug and refactor React code efficiently while maintaining full test coverage.
- Test React hooks, asynchronous code, and state management patterns with confidence.
- Automate testing workflows and integrate automated testing into continuous development pipelines, improving efficiency and code quality.

Who is this book for?
This book is for React developers who have a basic understanding of jаvascript, ES6+, and React fundamentals. Whether you are new to Test-Driven Development or looking to enhance your React testing skills, this book will guide you through writing effective tests and building reliable applications.
