“

(upbeat music) - [Instructor] In this chapter, we saw that functional testing can be slower than just unit testing due to the complexity of setting up and tearing down the application. How can we minimize that overhead and speed up testing? Your challenge is to restructure both the application and tests so an individual router can be tested using the base-application configuration.
