Summary
The study of JSON drives us toward various developmental phases. In this chapter, we learned about unit testing and automation. We used gulp.js
, which proved to be an incredible task runner tool. We learned about two important concepts of unit testing: BDD testing using the node.js assertion library; and mocha.js
, the TDD framework for JavaScript apps.
It is highly recommended to unit test as much as we can. This reduces bugs to a great extent and provides maintainability of code over time. As the saying goes:
"If you don't like unit testing your product, most likely your customers won't like to test it either."Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â

Moving forward in next chapter, things are going to be more interesting when we are going to study about JSON implementation in the realtime system followed by distributed ones.Â
