What Will I Learn?

• The basics of Apache Maven - the world's most popular Java build tool for building Java projects
• The basics of Java 8 and it's new features - the most important Java features to know about since Java's last main update of Java 5 with generics
• The basics of JUnit and Mockito - the de facto standard for unit testing Java applications
• The basics of the Spring framework - the word's number one base framework which most enterprise Java projects are built on

Requirements

• A basic understanding of Java programming is useful and to be aware of basic coding concepts
• It's useful to be able to use the commandline to be able to execute basic commands but is not essential

Target audience

• Beginner to intermediate Java developers who are relatively new to the 4 technologies covered
• Curious complete beginners to Java might also want to watch this course - but just bear in mind that we assume you're already a developer from the outset (although you can watch to get an idea of the "next level" stuff you'll be exposed to if you take your Java knowledge further)
• Developers in other languages who are transitioning over to Java - the content is also useful for them and will provide a base framework for understanding what the enterprise Java development landscape looks like
