Description

It’s difficult to innovate in a messy, disorganized PHP codebase. Enter test-driven development (TDD)—a more professional development approach that helps prevent regressions, increase developer confidence in a codebase, and keep the codebase clean to accommodate business logic pivots. In this course, learn how PHP developers can leverage TDD in new projects and refactor code in existing projects.

This course is integrated with GitHub Codespaces, an instant cloud developer environment that offers all the functionality of your favorite IDE without the need for any local machine setup. With GitHub Codespaces, you can get hands-on practice from any machine, at any time—all while using a tool that you’ll likely encounter in the workplace. Check out the “Using GitHub Codespaces with this course” video to learn how to get started.
