CS320 - Software Testing, Automation, and Quality Assurance

This project accompanies a video series created to help my Southern New Hampshire University CS320 class.

If you want to follow along with the video series (highly encouraged), clone the starter branch. The master branch is the end result of the video series.

Video Series

You can find the video series at my YouTube playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5Qak8r8wDYplRHuvXAm7IDMmoQymDd-8

The video series includes:

• Video 1: Cloning this project and importing it into Eclipse
• Video 2: Coding and testing the Contact entity
• Video 3: Coding and testing the ContactService entity repository

Prerequisites

Important

You can safely ignore this section if you are using SNHU's Apporto virtual desktop.

If you choose to follow along in Eclipse on your personal computer, you should ensure these prerequisites are met:

• You have Java 8 or later installed
• You have a recent version of Gradle installed
• You have a recent version of Git installed
• You have installed Eclipse IDE for Java Developers

Getting Started

Caution

Only follow these instructions if you are using your personal computer. If you are using SNHU's Apporto virtual desktop, follow the instructions in the video.

1. Using a Bash/Zsh terminal, navigate to the directory you want to store your project in. For example:

   mkdir ~/projects
   cd projects

2. Clone the project:

   git clone https://github.com/cbush06/cs320.git

   8. Expand cs320 > build
   9. Double-click on the build task

   14. If the sample test passes, you're good to go
