JUnit Recipes: Practical Methods for Programmer Testing Review by mathboy
Straightforward informative, all stuff, no stuffing
This is the JUnit book for you if you're looking into JUnit and basically get the idea - there's frameworks out there which will run tests that you write and JUnit is one of them- but don't know much more. It gets straight to the point and pretty quickly takes you from the no-nothing state to being able to using JUnit. At least, it did that in my case.
In a nutshell, this book will get you testing fast so you can move on and think about other, more interesting things.
All stuff, no stuffing, easy to read, well edited, well indexed, no time wasting exposition, what else do you want?
Example code has Manning's "numbered dot" technique whereby they highlight POI right in the code using footnotes that look like big black dots with numbers inside them, with accompanying text a little further down, a feature I find helpful.
Most technical publishers try hard to make their books worth the money they ask: Wiley , O'Reilly , Manning and Apress come to mind right away. This book is a good one from Manning and a good example of why Manning is a great niche publisher.
