دانلود کتاب Perl Testing: A Developer's Notebook

s there any sexier topic in software development than software testing? That is, besides game programming, 3D graphics, audio, high-performance clustering, cool websites, et cetera? Okay, so software testing is low on the list. And that's unfortunate, because good software testing can increase your productivity, improve your designs, raise your quality, ease your maintenance burdens, and help to satisfy your customers, coworkers, and managers.Perl has a strong history of automated tests. A very early release of Perl 1.0 included a comprehensive test suite, and it's only improved from there. Learning how Perl's test tools work and how to put them together to solve all sorts of previously intractable problems can make you a better programmer in general. Besides, it's easy to use the Perl tools described to handle all sorts of testing problems that you may encounter, even in other languages.Like all titles in O'Reilly's Developer's Notebook series, this "all lab, no lecture" book skips the boring prose and focuses instead on a series of exercises that speak to you instead of at you.Perl Testing: A Developer's Notebook will help you dive right in and: * Write basic Perl tests with ease and interpret the results * Apply special techniques and modules to improve your tests * Bundle test suites along with projects * Test databases and their data * Test websites and web projects * Use the "Test Anything Protocol" which tests projects written in languages other than Perl"
