🦀 Master Rust Programming #9 | Testing & Todo App Test Suite | Unit & Integration Tests TDD 🚀

🦀 Welcome back to the Complete Rust Programming Course! In this practical lecture, we dive deep into Rust's powerful built-in testing framework and apply it to thoroughly test our Todo application from previous videos.

🎯 What You'll Master in This Video:
✅ Rust Testing Framework - Built-in #[test] attributes
✅ Unit Tests - Testing individual functions and methods
✅ Integration Tests - Testing complete application workflows
✅ Test Organization - Structuring tests for maintainability
✅ Testing Todo App - Comprehensive test suite for our CLI application
✅ Test-Driven Development - Writing tests before implementation
✅ Mocking and Test Data - Creating reliable test environments
✅ Cargo Test Commands - Running and organizing test suites

🔥 Why Testing is Critical in Rust:
Catch bugs before they reach production
Document expected behavior through test cases
Enable confident refactoring and code changes
Rust's type system + tests = bulletproof applications
Industry-standard development practices
Essential for team collaboration and code reviews
