Unit testing and debugging static methods in Java; Intro Java course Lesson 5 Video 6

This series of videos is suitable for programmers with minimal (or no) programming experience who want to learn Java. This is the thirty-first video in the Introductory Java series, and the sixth video in lesson 5 (static methods). In this video we're going to look at common difficult-to-debug errors that can result when we design a system with static methods, debugging methods, and unit testing methods.

There is a suggested (free) book below that you could read along with the videos lessons. However, the video is very straightforward and can also stand alone or accompany any other introductory Java textbook. Let's have some fun learning to program in Java!
