**Course 4 : Testing
(180m)

It's no secret that smart contracts are the future of finance. But with great power comes great responsibility—and a lot of testing. Smart contract testing is paramount to ensuring that your contracts perform as expected and don't cost you more money than they should.Smart contract testing is essential for optimizing deployment and saving on gas fees, as well as ensuring that your contracts are secure. It also ensures a smoother internal auditing process, because you can be sure that your code will do what it's supposed to do when deployed.
