-
Expectation Misalignment: Some users felt that the course could be condensed into a shorter duration, as there seems to be an excess of time spent on creating simple flows rather than focusing on more complex use case testing.
Additional Feedback:
-
Structuring MUnit Tests: There is a need for content on how to structure MUnit tests within applications, including testing dataweave components and error handling.
-
Advanced Use Cases: Users were expecting more advanced use cases in the examples provided, which they felt were too simple compared to the depth of the course material.
Conclusion:
The "Unit Testing in Mule 4" course receives high praise for its comprehensive coverage of unit testing within the Mule ecosystem and its interactive elements.
