TDD workshop

Description

This TDD workshop offers a hands-on introduction to emergent design, clean code and automated testing.

You will use and learn TDD practices such as unit testing, refactoring, and related agile practices such as pair programming.

You will be immersed in a realistic TDD project, allowing you to learn the practices and principles of test driven development and try them out in practice.
