This course aims to teach you how to write better Rails applications by applying good testing practices. You’ll learn about the reasoning behind testing and the process of applying good testing practices. 

In the first half of the course, you’ll learn about the testing mindset and understand its importance. Next, you’ll learn to turn business requirements into user stories. These user stories will become the basis of the code and tests you’ll write.

Once you understand the reasoning and process, you’ll proceed to write the actual tests. You’ll test what is most important to the end user first. So, the first set of tests you’ll learn to write will be feature tests. Finally, you’ll learn to write request tests and unit tests ensuring end-to-end coverage of our application.

# Why business goals?
The why concerns the reason behind the code—the business goal.

If seeing the word business in a technical context seems like a typo, rest assured that it’s not. It’s more important than the code we write, the programming language, or the editor. Writing and thinking about tests in terms of business objectives is the key to learning how to write bug-free Ruby on Rails applications.



Let’s go over the importance of business goals.
