Tooling and IntelliJ
This terminal command will print out the version of java you are using.
What is `java -version`
These three words paint a "colorful" picture of how to do TDD.
What is "red / green / refactor"
A class definition is a blueprint for a specific type of object. When an object is created from a class definition, we call it this.
What is an instance?
This data type represents a collection of alphanumeric characters.
what is "String"?
Java Arrays are statically sized, unlike this related data structure.
What is an ArrayList?
This command is used to compile your code using Gradle.
What is `./gradlew build`?
This helpful acronym describes four stages of a unit test. Let's just sit with this question for a while.
What is SEAT?
Classes define state using fields. they define behavior using these.
what are methods?
This is something that a `float` type has, that an `int` value does not. It's what makes a `float` more precise!
What is a decimal point / decimal places
In Java, these are functions that aren't bound to classes as methods and don't need names. (The same term may be used differently in other languages.)
What are Lambda functions / expressions?
This type of file is created when you compile your code using Gradle. No, it doesn't store jam!
What is a .jar file?
This is a type of software used to write automated tests for code. Examples include JUnit, XUnit (Java), Jest, and Mocha (JavaScript)
What is a testing framework.
This is the name for the method that instantiates the class, in accordance with the "new" keyword.
What is a constructor?
This is the term for assigning a value of one data type to another type-- Or for pouring molten metal into shapes
What is "Casting"?
What are key / value pairs
This is used by the compiler to resolve your java project's dependencies.
What is "Build path"
This principle of good test design says that all unit tests should be designed to run independent of external factors, and of each other.
What is isolation / isolated?
This is the number of arguments you can pass to the default constructor
What is 0
This is a term for data types which are pre-defined and aren't objects. They can be referred to using built-in keywords.
What are "primitive data types"
This type of algorithm involves creating a variable, iterating over arrays and lists, and modifying the variable at each iteration.
What is the accumulator pattern?
This is used at runtime in order to find necessary dependencies.
What is "Classpath"
A title, a narrative, and acceptance criteria with GIVEN,WHEN, and THEN clauses are all requirements for developing using this style (which incorporates TDD!)
This practice involves writing multiple methods to instantiate a class, all with the same name but different types or amounts of parameters.
What is constructor overloading?
This is the term for the conversion of an object of a wrapper class to the value of its respective primitive data type-- and for a popular YouTube genre!
What is "Unboxing"?
Classes can "extend" only a single superclass. However, they can "implement" as many of these as you'd like.
What is an interface?
