This course will teach you how to go beyond simple asserts and use human intelligence to test both new and legacy code.

ApprovalTests is an open source library that enables unit tests to go beyond simple asserts. It allows complex verification of system output that would otherwise be hard and time-consuming to implement using conventional asserting. It is also an essential tool to quickly get legacy code under test before refactoring it.
