Let's start with the most often-discussed way of testing software: unit tests.

So, if we have a function that performs some major logical implementation in our application, this is certainly the most reliable way to ensure it works correctly.
Let's look at the following topics:
- Defining unit tests
- Setting up Xcode
- Unit tests for microservices
