Spock: Up and Running: Writing Expressive Tests in Java and Groovy 1st Edition

Most developers would agree that writing automated tests is a good idea, but writing good, well-structured tests is still an elusive skill for many. For Java and Groovy developers, however, there's good news. This practical guide shows you how to write concise and highly readable tests with Spock, the most innovative testing and specification framework for the JVM since JUnit.

Author Rob Fletcher takes you from Spock basics to advanced topics, using fully worked integration examples. Through the course of this book, you'll build a simple web application-Squawker-that allows users to post short messages. You'll discover how much it is easier to write automated tests with Spock's straightforward and expressive language.
