Each of the video’s five lessons includes items centered on a key topic. The video starts with items focused on how to make effective use of arrays and hashes before moving on to lessons that teach viewers how to improve their objects by creating seams between them and how to write excellent tests for their Ruby applications. Next, the training teaches viewers how to solve problems associated with enumerables and callables, and finally how to best make use of the standard library. After watching this video, Rubyists will have gained the knowledge necessary to really master the language; viewers will be able to immediately apply the advice, tips, and tricks learned to the Ruby programs they’re writing to improve the quality of their code.

Lesson 1: Arrays and Hashes
In the first lesson you learn some of the more advanced ways to use Ruby’s built-in collection classes to simplify your applications, as well as some of the common pitfalls associated with using these objects.
Lesson 2: Seams
In Lesson 2, you learn ways to decouple objects in your system. You also discover some standards and practices used by expert Ruby developers for creating seams between objects.
Lesson 3: Testing
In Lesson 3, you learn some of the easiest ways to improve your tests, and how to improve the design of your system through the use of well-structured tests.
Lesson 4: Enumerables and Callables
Lesson 4 teaches you how to use enumerables and callable to simply express powerful concepts built on standard Ruby APIs.
Lesson 5: The Standard Library
In Lesson 5 you thoroughly explore the Ruby standard library and learn how to use the library to improve your writing of applications.
