TDD for Next.js — A New Course for Developers Who Ship Reliable Code

Stop debugging. Start testing first.


I built TDD for Next.js: SSR & API Routes for developers who are tired of shipping features that break in production.


This course teaches you to apply the red-green-refactor cycle across the entire Next.js stack:


  • API Route Testing — GET, POST, validation, error handling, auth guards

  • SSR Testing — getServerSideProps, dynamic routes, data source mocking

  • Integration Testing — database mocking, component boundaries, full-flow verification

  • Production Patterns — CI pipelines, coverage strategies, mutation testing

  • Capstone Project — Build a complete feature using strict TDD from scratch


Who this is for


Junior to mid-level developers who want to ship reliable Next.js apps. You should know JavaScript/TypeScript and have basic Next.js experience. No prior testing experience required.


What you'll walk away with


  • The ability to TDD any Next.js feature — API routes, SSR pages, middleware

  • A portfolio-ready capstone project with full test coverage

  • A certificate of completion


The course is $263/week with a 1-day free trial so you can see if the teaching style works for you.


Write tests first. Ship features that never break.
