Software Craftsmanship Zürich Meetup

Keep Calm and Test First!

Have you ever experienced…

  • … broken features after you added a new feature?
  • … the uncertainty if your black box software works shortly before release?
  • … a teammate destroyed one of your – with love – developed features.
  • … a bug where you say: «Oh damn, we should have seen this! ».

I suppose so you've been long enough in this business.

In this workshop we learn the basics of Test Driven Development (TDD) and elaborate the benefits of it. We start at the beginning and go back to the TDD theory. So you don't have to be experienced in Test Driven Development. For all experienced members we'll dive deeper in and discuss benefits, chances and dangers of the process.

Your facilitator will be…
