Exercise 1 (Testing for Hash Password Functions)

[00:00 - 00:07] Here's an exciting exercise. In this exercise, you'll write a unit test for the hash password function.

[00:08 - 00:24] The goal is to observe the entry and exit points of this function and write a unit test based on your observation. The hash password function takes a password as input and returns a hash to version of that password.

[00:25 - 00:36] Our task is to write a unit test that verifies the correct behavior of this function. It's important to note that the hash password function is asynchronous.

[00:37 - 00:53] Therefore, the function that houses the test logic needs to be asynchronous as well. To properly test an asynchronous function, we need to await the return value of the function before making our assertions.

[00:54 - 01:09] This ensures that the test waits for the asynchronous function to complete before proceeding. By following these guidelines, you can effectively test the hash password function and ensure it behaves as expected.

[01:10 - 01:17] Don't forget to use the appropriate naming framework. Either given when then or the use naming framework.

[01:18 - 01:29] Also, use the arrange act as a set pattern. Get ready to dive into this exercise and put your newly acquired skills to the test.

[01:30 - 01:36] Remember to create an asynchronous test function, await the return of the hash password function and make your assertions. Happy testing!
