8. Unit Testing with Karma (Testacular)

   All good developers write unit tests. We will too.

9. Homework

   Fun and simple homework. It's like school

18. Directive Compilation

    We look at how the Angular compiler traverses the DOM, oreder of compilation, and when to use the compile, link and controller functions.

19. Isolate Scopes

    One of the most misunderstood features of directives. We learn, in detail, how to control the scope hierarchy.

20. Homework 2

    Again, like school, but better paid.

21. Directive Transclusion

    Transclusion allows us to pass template content to a directive as an attribute. This is a lot more useful than it sounds. Here we see why.

22. Create, Read, Update, Delete

    We put it together and talk to a real RESTful API to build a little content driven app

23. Build a back end with WebAPI

    Build a simple API with WebAPI, then integrate from it.

    We validate our inputs the right way

25. Protractor

    End to end integration testing.
