But Wait… There’s More

This sample includes just a couple of chapters from the book, but in the book you’ll also find:

Part 1: Pester Concepts

In this part of our book, we’re going to focus on the concepts. We’ll be covering each component of Pester from a basic, 101-level perspective. Each chapter is broken down by an important area of Pester. This part will introduce you to Pester and all that comes with it to prepare you for the next part where then take that knowledge and begin applying it to practical examples.

Part 2: Using Pester

In Part II, we’re going to get down to business. By now, you’ve graduated from the 101-level information and learned what Pester is and how to use it in a basic manner. It’s now time to get down to applying that knowledge to real-world use cases.

This part will be mostly hands-on demonstrations of how to use Pester in various scenarios. We’ll cover how to use Pester to solve real problems, go over best practices and show you how to go from a Pester newbie to a Pester rockstar!

Part 3: Hands-On Design and Testing

In Part III, you’re an old hand at building Pester tests. At this point, you should be well aware of how to build Pester tests in real-world scenarios and know many tricks of the trade. However, knowing how to build Pester tests and how to design them along with the code being tested are two separate things.

In this part, you’re going to take a step back and cover how to build testable code to more easily work with Pester and finally how to design your Pester tests to be easy to manage.

Part 4: Pester Cookbook

If you need more examples of how to use Pester to test all kinds of scenarios, this is part of the book is for you. In this part, you’ll find different testing scenarios Pester applies to.

In this part, you’ll find various “recipes” that’ll help you cook up the best Pester tests!
