This course will teach you all about creating a web application in the Hexagonal Architecture style. Hexagonal Architecture promotes the separation of concerns by encapsulating logic in different layers of the application. This enables a higher level of isolation, testability, and control over your business specific code. 

You will learn how to design software modules and complete applications in a clean and maintainable manner, while also learning how to advocate for a certain technique given your application and constraints.

By the end of this course, you will have a greater understanding of how to implement software architecture, a key skill for any senior developer.

Hexagonal Software Architecture for Web Applications

A question many project teams I've been part of couldn't answer is how much testing we should do. Is it enough if our tests cover 80% of our lines of code? Should it be higher than that?

# Line coverage

Line coverage is a bad metric to measure test success. Any goal other than 100% is completely [meaningless](https://reflectoring.io/100-percent-test-coverage/) because important parts of the codebase might not be covered at all. And even at 100%, we still can't be sure that every bug has been squashed.
