Course Description
Being a productive front-end web developer can be challenging at times. In this course we will uncover how the front-end can be unit tested and rapidly prototyped separate from the back-end. We will cover the basics of unit testing and use a variety of tools and techniques to help assist with mocking and prototyping. Then we will uncover how to integrate these techniques with common front-end frameworks such as KnockoutJS, Backbone.js, and AngularJS.
