Test-Driven iOS Development with Swift

By: Dr. Dominik Hauser

Overview of this book

Test-driven development (TDD) is a proven way to find software bugs early. Writing tests before your code improves the structure and maintainability of your app. Test-Driven iOS Development with Swift will help you understand the process of TDD and how it impacts your applications written in Swift. Through practical, real-world examples, you’ll start seeing how to implement TDD in context. We will begin with an overview of your TDD workflow and then deep-dive into unit testing concepts and code cycles. We will showcase the workings of functional tests, which will help you improve the user interface. Finally, you will learn about automating deployments and continuous integration to run an environment.

Implementing the ItemManager class


The to-do app will show all the to-do items in a list. The list of items will be managed by a class called ItemManager. It will expose an interface to get, add, and remove items.

Open Project Navigator and select the ToDoTests group. Go to iOS | Source | Unit Test Case Class to create a test case class with the name, ItemManagerTests, and put it in the Model folder. Import the ToDo module (@testable import ToDo) and remove the two test method templates.

The requirements from Chapter 2, Planning and Structuring Your Test-Driven iOS App, ask for a list with unchecked to-do items at the top and checked to-do items at the bottom of the list in the app. How the items are presented is not a matter of concern with regard to the model. But it has to be possible to get the number of unchecked and checked to-do items from the item manager.

Add the following code to ItemManagerTests:

func testToDoCount_Initially_ShouldBeZero() {
    let sut = ItemManager()
}

The sut...
