Taking Your First Steps with TDD

Test-driven development (TDD) is a software development process that’s widely used in Angular development to ensure code quality and reduce time spent debugging. By writing automated tests before writing production code, developers can ensure that their code meets the desired specifications and can be easily modified and maintained over time.

In this chapter, we’ll explore the early stages of TDD in Angular. We’ll start by discussing the role of TDD in Angular development and how it can help improve the quality of your code. Then, we’ll set up the development environment, which involves installing the necessary tools and dependencies.

Next, we’ll create a new Angular project and explore the various files related to writing tests, including the spec files, which contain the actual tests, and the karma.conf.js file, which is used to configure the testing framework.
