  • Basic about testing controller and services
  • Different ways to Mock service or Providers
  • Mocking External auth or data services
  • Nest JS Testing with TypeORM interface
  • NestJS Testing with Knex or Prisma
  • Nest JS running Unit and E2E Tests on CI setup
  • Nest JS Testing GraphQL Interface
  • Nest JS Testing REST Interface
  • Nest JS Testing Controller and services
  • Nest JS Running Test Suits for APIs
  • Nest JS running Database seed and cleanup on Test Execution
