- TDD stands for test-driven development, and the aim is to write tests before the actual implementation of the project. This helps to define project requirements more clearly and avoid most of the bugs in the code beforehand.
- Interaction diagrams picture the exact process of communication of the objects. This allows developers to have a high-level view of the actual program execution for any given moment.
- In the case of aggregation, the class that contains an instance or instances of other classes could be instantiated without the aggregate. The composition, on the other hand, expresses the strong containment.
- In simple terms, the Liskov substitution principle ensures that any function taking an object of some type T as an argument will also take an object of type K if K extends T.
- The open-closed principle states that the class should be open for extension and closed...

Overview of this book
C++ has evolved over the years and the latest release – C++20 – is now available. Since C++11, C++ has been constantly enhancing the language feature set. With the new version, you’ll explore an array of features such as concepts, modules, ranges, and coroutines. This book will be your guide to learning the intricacies of the language, techniques, C++ tools, and the new features introduced in C++20, while also helping you apply these when building modern and resilient software.
You’ll start by exploring the latest features of C++, and then move on to advanced techniques such as multithreading, concurrency, debugging, monitoring, and high-performance programming. The book will delve into object-oriented programming principles and the C++ Standard Template Library, and even show you how to create custom templates. After this, you’ll learn about different approaches such as test-driven development (TDD), behavior-driven development (BDD), and domain-driven design (DDD), before taking a look at the coding best practices and design patterns essential for building professional-grade applications. Toward the end of the book, you will gain useful insights into the recent C++ advancements in AI and machine learning.
By the end of this C++ programming book, you’ll have gained expertise in real-world application development, including the process of designing complex software.
