Overview/Description

Accelerate contract development by using the Truffle framework and Ganache to manage building, testing, and deploying smart contracts for your Blockchain solutions. For this course, you should already have some degree of application development experience in a high-level programming language. Learn how to write a simple Hello World smart contract using Solidity; how to use the solc compiler to produce a smart contract to generate Ethereum bytecode; and how to script smart contract compilation and define the types of output required, including bytecode and ABI (application binary interface). In this course, you will also learn to write simple test cases by using Mocha, group them into a test suite, and describe a common set of actions to run before each test case. By the end of this course, you will become familiar with using the Truffle Suite for smart contract development and lifecycle management. You will know how the steps for building, testing, and deploying a smart contract can be scripted and thus greatly speed up the development of your distributed application.
