Kotlin Cookbook
Use Kotlin to build Android apps, web applications, and more—while you learn the nuances of this popular language. With this unique cookbook, developers will learn how to apply thisJava-based language to their own projects. Both experienced programmers and those new to Kotlin will benefit from the practical recipes in this book. Author Ken Kousen (Modern Java Recipes) shows you how to solve problems with Kotlin by concentrating on your own use cases rather than on basic syntax. You provide the contextand this book supplies the answers. Already big in Android development, Kotlin can be used anywhere Java is applied, as well as for iOS development, native applications, JavaScriptgeneration, and more. Jump in and build meaningful projects with Kotlin today. Apply functional programming concepts, including lambdas, sequences, and concurrency See how to use delegates, late initialization, and scope functions Explore Java interoperability and access Java libraries using Kotlin Add your own extension functions Use helpful libraries such as JUnit 5 Get practical advice for working with specific frameworks, like Android and Spring
Making Java Groovy
Summary Making Java Groovy is a practical handbook for developers who want to blend Groovy into their day-to-day work with Java. It starts by introducing the key differences between Java and Groovy—and how you can use them to your advantage. Then, it guides you step-by-step through realistic development challenges, from web applications to web services to desktop applications, and shows how Groovy makes them easier to put into production. About this Book You don't need the full force of Java when you're writing a build script, a simple system utility, or a lightweight web app—but that's where Groovy shines brightest. This elegant JVM-based dynamic language extends and simplifies Java so ...
Mockito Made Clear
Mockito is the most popular framework in the Java world for automating unit testing with dependencies. Learn the Mockito API and how and when to use stubs, mocks, and spies. On a deeper level, discover why the framework does what it does and how it can simplify unit testing in Java. Using Mockito, you'll be able to isolate the code you want to test from the behavior or state of external dependencies without coding details of the dependency. You'll gain insights into the Mockito API, save time when unit testing, and have confidence in your Java programs. If you've only ever run a few JUnit tests or injected stubs into classes to return preset values, it's time to level up your Java toolbox. D...
Modern Java Recipes
The introduction of functional programming concepts in Java SE 8 was a drastic change for this venerable object-oriented language. Lambda expressions, method references, and streams fundamentally changed the idioms of the language, and many developers have been trying to catch up ever since. This cookbook will help. With more than 70 detailed recipes, author Ken Kousen shows you how to use the newest features of Java to solve a wide range of problems. For developers comfortable with previous Java versions, this guide covers nearly all of Java SE 8, and includes a chapter focused on changes coming in Java 9. Need to understand how functional idioms will change the way you write code? This coo...

Gradle Recipes for Android
Android adopted Gradle as the preferred build automation system a few years ago, but many Android developers are still unfamiliar with this open source tool. This hands-on guide provides a collection of Gradle recipes to help you quickly and easily accomplish the most common build tasks for your Android apps. You’ll learn how to customize project layouts, add dependencies, and generate many different versions of your app. Gradle is based on Groovy, yet very little knowledge of the JVM language is required for you to get started. Code examples use Android SDK version 23, with emulators from Marshmallow (Android 6) or Lollipop (Android 5). If you’re comfortable with Java and Android, you’re ready. Understand Gradle’s generated build files for Android apps Run Gradle from the command line or inside Android Studio Add more Java libraries to your Android app Import and export Eclipse ADT projects Digitally sign a Release APK for the Google Play store Use product flavors to build many versions of the same app Add custom tasks to the Gradle build process Test both your app’s Android and non-Android components Improve the performance of your Gradle build
Mastering Groovy Programming
"Learn advanced techniques for working with the Groovy programming language. In this video workshop, presenter and Java consultant Ken Kousen shows you how to create RESTful web services, conduct Unit Tests, apply Groovy's functional programming features, and use Java's Spring Framework in conjunction with this JVM language. These courses demonstrate the many advantages of adding Groovy to existing projects written in Java and other object-oriented languages."--Resource description page.
Working with Grails 3 Controllers and Services
"In this video course, expert Java trainer and consultant Ken Kousen uses a more complete domain model in Grails 3 to show how the static scaffolding works with the fields plugin to build a complete set of web pages for multiple tables. From there, he dives into the details of the generated view pages, which use Grails 3 custom tags and data exposed at different scopes, including flash scope. Finally, he reviews transactional services and dependency injection of service beans, and reveals how to access JSON data through a REST controller."--Resource description page.

Practical Android
"In this follow-up to his Learning Android video, Java consultant Ken Kousen provides practical tips to further enhance your Android skills. In the previous course, you developed a simple application and tested it. In this video, you'll learn how to create alert dialogs so your app will send data to an alert, and configure dialog buttons so they react to clicks. This includes creating an interface that the activity implements. Ken also reviews the Google Play store and deployment process."--Resource description page.
