Java Professionals Course
-----------------

Welcome to a course for Java Engineers. It's created for developers who already have some experience but
don't understand how the code that they copy-paste works (if you're a beginner, consider
[Java Beginner course](https://github.com/qala-io/java-beginner-course)). It's for you if:

* You've written at least 1 app with HTTP and DB
* You don't know which HTTP verbs are idempotent
* Configuration of your Thread/DB Pool is based on a guess
* For you `@Transactional` is magic that hopefully works
* Most of your tests use mocking frameworks

You can either go through the material on your own or you can
[enroll to the online group](https://github.com/qala-io/java-course/issues/13).

# What you should expect

There are so many libraries and frameworks around that it's impossible to learn them all. Fortunately you don't need to.
We'll be learning fundamental principles that you can reuse no matter what implementation you choose.

Throughout the course we'll implement a [tiny REST app](./docs/reqs.md) using:

* Maven
* H2, Hibernate, C3P0
* HibernateValidator
* Spring IoC
* Tomcat, Spring MVC, Jackson2
* TestNG, Unitils, Qala Datagen, MockMvc, RestAssured

# Course Programme

Within the course you're going to have steps to accomplish - most of them will be reading, practicing. There will be
questions that you should be able to answer (at least to yourself) - please make sure you don't skip this part.
Typical pace: 15 hours per week, 6 months for the whole course.

* [Part I: Maven](./docs/programme/maven.md)
* [Part II: Web and Application Servers](./docs/programme/web-apps.md)
* [Part III: Spring & REST](./docs/programme/spring-n-rest.md)
* [Part IV: JDBC & Co.](./docs/programme/jdbc.md)
* [Part V: Declarative Transactions & AOP](./docs/programme/transactions-n-aop.md)
* [Part VI: DB Pools](./docs/programme/db-pools.md)
* [Part VII: Hibernate](./docs/programme/hibernate.md)
* [Next steps](./docs/programme/next-steps.md)
