Test-driven development (TDD) is a software design technique based on tests that promotes an iterative way of writing software. This course will teach you to use TDD using Go—one of the most popular languages.

In this course, you will first learn about the fundamentals of Go, including packages, standard library, and error handling. Then, you will go through a comprehensive guide on writing test cases using Go, including subtests, table-driven tests, skipping, benchmarking, fuzzing, dependency injection, and mocking in unit tests. Next, you will look at multiple TDD katas and learn about the best practices for making most of the TDD approach. Finally, you will build a TODO application by following the test-driven development approach. This application will be a REST API that exposes actions getting TODOs. 

After completing this course, you will have the skills needed to build reliable applications using the test-driven development approach.

# Write more tests
It’s time to add more tests to our test suite to check if our `DecimalToRoman` function is behaving as expected. 
## Positive test cases
When testing our programs, we can’t rely exclusively on trivial input values. We also have to write tests for edge-corner cases, which are likely to uncover bugs and glitches in our production code. That said, let’s write tests for these values: `9`, `45`, `99`, `222`, `1024`, and `3999`.

Learn how to grow your test suite by involving edge-corner case tests.
