Beginning Ruby on Rails E-Commerce: From Novice to Professional is the first book of its kind to guide you through producing e-commerce applications with Railsthe stacked web framework taking the world by storm. The book dives right into the process of creating a production-level web application using agile methodologies and test-driven development combined with Rails best practices. Youll take advantage of the latest crop of Rails plug-ins and helpers that will radically improve your programming schedule. Youll also create a real application step-by-step, plus the book is driven by real-world cases throughout.

Then youll discover how to build modern, Ajax-powered shopping carts and add useful features like customer feedback modules. Next youll learn how to integrate your application with open source packages like the Ferret full-text search engine, and how to interface with back-end electronic payment systems. Youll also learn how to make your application work flawlessly with existing production systems using web services, and then ultimately deploy and tune your application for production use.
