We will be holding several trainings before the OpenCFSummit this year in Garland, Texas.  We will be doing CBOX 202 that concentrates on dependency injection and AOP for ColdFusion, CBOX203 that concentrates on modular architecture and building ColdBox modules and CBOX204 which concentrates on testing, unit testing, TDD, best practices, mocking and more.

CBOX 202 - WireBox Dependency Injection

CBOX-202 is one of our advanced courses that focuses on WireBox, our dependency injection framework. In this course you will learn all about dependency injection, inversion of control principles, object de-coupling, compositions, and object messaging, mocking and testing with WireBox. Our focus is in learning what problems dependency injection solves and how to apply it with WireBox.

Objectives

This course will challenge you on how to design sustainable and extensible object models by leveraging dependency injection. This course will enhance your application toolbox and architectural skills.

• Thorough understanding of dependency injection, inversion of control, and associated design patterns
• How to apply DI patterns to our objects and leverage WireBox correctly
• Learn about the different injection styles DI offers
• Learn how to decouple and make your objects more testable
• Understand key development best practices that will enable you to develop higher quality code

CBOX 203 - ColdBox Modules

CBOX-203 is one of our advanced courses dealing with ColdBox Modules, Architecture and Modularization spread in 2 intense training days. In this course you will learn all about modular architecture, planning and the power behind ColdBox Modules. You will have both theory and hands on workshops that will sharpen your skills and challenge you.

Objectives

This course will challenge you on how to modularize your design and application architecture. ColdBox Modules are the building blocks of any extensible, scalable and sustainable application architecture. From small- scale web applications to RESTful web services and mission critical enterprise applications. This course will enhance your application toolbox and architectural skills.

• Understanding on modular architecture and design
• How to apply ColdBox Modules to your monolithic applications
• Everything you wanted to know about ColdBox Modules
• Knowledge of when to modularize and scale out your applications
• Understand key development best practices that will enable you to develop higher quality code

CBOX-204: Testing, Mocking, Stubbing, Oh My!

CBOX-204 is one of our advanced courses that focus on testing principles, TDD (Test Driven Development), mocking and ColdBox application testing. In this 1-day course you will be exposed to testing theory, types of tests, working with MXUnit, application testing, tools of the trade and finally learn about Mocking and Stub objects. You will have both theory and hands on workshops that will sharpen your skills and challenge you.

Objectives

This course will enhance your application toolbox and development skills.

• Understand the theory and principles behind software testing
• Understand all types of testing and know when to apply them
• Review tools of the trade for TDD and CI (Continuous Integration)
• Everything you wanted to know about the MXUnit Framework
• Apply testing to your applications with a focus on ColdBox applications n Understand Mocking/Stubbing and its applications via MockBox
