In this hands-on Premium screencast, from scratch, we’ll use test-driven development to build a jQuery plugin. Along the way, we’ll take advantage of Grunt, QUnit, and GitHub to build, test, and distribute our plugin, respectively. If the idea of testing in JavaScript is still foreign to you, you won’t find a better introduction!
