We understood what TDD actually is—a design scheme driven by specifying the behaviors at the beginning, rather than after we complete our code. We talked about why this approach is good. Then, we started with the testing tools available in Scala, and learned about ScalaTest. We wrote the specifications and then coded for the same. Finally, we also took a look at the mocking framework available in Scala named ScalaMock.
