Description

This course is designed to introduce Java developers to the development and testing of server-side applications based on the J2EE component model, using IBM WebSphere tools.
The scope of the course is for the development and testing of server-side applications that use servlets and JavaServer Pages (JSPs) for the control and flow of e-business applications, and use JavaBeans to represent the business logic.
The student will be able to develop servlets, JSPs and JavaBeans with IBM WebSphere tools (currently this includes WebSphere Studio Application Developer for Windows, Version 4.0.2 for building servlets, building JSPs, for unit testing, and WebSphere Application Server, Advanced Single Server Edition for Multiplatforms V4.0.2 for integration testing).
This course also covers best practices for building J2EE Web applications, including the use of the Model/View/Controller (MVC) framework to separate concerns among the JavaBeans-JSPs-servlets in the application, and JUnit for testing the components. The course describes deployment issues pertinent to the developer.

Audience

The audience is Java developers involved in building Web-based server-side application solutions, specifically, developers focused on the application logic of the server-side applications.

Prerequisites

To get the most out of this course offering students must meet the following prerequisites. Students who do not meet these prerequisites may not be able to fully understand and utilize the materials presented in the course.
o Develop, test, and deploy Java applications (as provided in course JA341 or OB79/N3232 or equivalent).
o Understand server-side Java applications (as provided in distance learning module VJ10A or equivalent).

Objectives

After completing this course, you should be able to:

o Use IBM WebSphere tools (currently WebSphere Studio Application Developer and WebSphere Application Server) for developing, debugging and testing server-side applications
o Develop and test servlets using IBM WebSphere tools (Application Developer)
o Develop and test JavaServer Pages (JSPs) using IBM WebSphere tools (Application Developer)
o Develop and test JavaBeans using IBM WebSphere tools (Application Developer)
o Use JavaBeans, JSPs, and servlets in accordance with the Model/View/Controller (MVC) programming model
o Develop, test and use JDBC to access databases in the model application layer.
o Describe deployment and run-time issues of J2EE-based applications including security, scaling, work load management in the context of WebSphere Application Server
o Assemble and perform integration testing of J2EE-based applications using the WebSphere Application Server, Advanced Single Server Edition for Multiplatforms V4.0.2
o Identify the best practices needed to design and build Web applications (application frameworks and design patterns)
