We will look into:
• testability of Ratpack apps
• usefulness of the toolkit when testing other applications
• configuration mechanism and its extensibility
• deploying into the cloud
• development time reloading
• parsers, renderers and services
• the built in http client
• http session implementation
• the "integrate over abstract" strategy
We will talk about why all these things matter even if you don't anticipate the app you're building to ever receive enormous amounts of traffic. There is probably going to be a demo or two and I will try to include as many real life examples from the app I'm currently building with Ratpack as possible.
