Engenharia de Software

Programming skills required for writing unit tests.

The following teaching methodologies are used in this course:

Expository method: explanatory method where facts, concepts, principles and generalizations are defined and presented by the teacher and discussed with the class, followed by demonstrative examples;

Experimental method: active method where the student develops knowledge through problem solving and project development, in group dynamics and individual and reflective work
