Description:

Spock is a Groovy-based testing framework that recently hit version 1.0. In this webcast, we'll start with an introductory overview of what Spock is, how it works, and why it's so compelling for JVM testing. We’ll look at Spock's strengths when compared to other testing frameworks you may be familiar with—namely JUnit—and why you should consider using it even when Groovy isn't the language used in your production code.
