Summary

This chapter was a little different than the previous ones because, in many ways, our game is complete! But of course, it's not perfect, which is why we spent some time looking at ways we can investigate defects and bullet-proof the code base.

We dug into automated testing, writing unit tests for our transitions, and writing integration tests that run in the browser. We now have logging for any unforeseen errors and stack traces if the code crashes, both of which are necessary diagnostics for debugging challenging errors. Then, we used the linter and Clippy to clean up our code and remove subtle issues that the compiler can't catch. Finally, we investigated performance issues in the browser and found that we had none!

In the next chapter, we'll get those tests into a CI/CD setup and even deploy them to production. What are we waiting for? Let's ship this thing!
