Read this as, "Coverage comes first, Confidence comes second." Thought, "Yes!"

Today I've finished #teaching to my current customer how to maintain the #software I've developed for them once I've left. Two sessions of 3h and 3h40, teaching to 4 people, all in #japanese of course. A bit tired tonight, but both the users and the IT team are super happy with what I've done (solving a #combinatorial #optimisation problem to save them several hours of work every week and help #organic #farmers ) and I was happy to teach about what I love the most: #programming .
Bonus point for preaching about #testdrivendevelopment and the beauty of #cprogramming .

Also still looking for my next contract ! #fedihire #jobsearch

Would it be possible to transfer the test-driven development paradigm over to writing fiction? Test-driven novel writing? I think so!

Here’s my pecha kucha talk on the topic from @Oop Munich: youtu.be/s9rPI1lPWfc

What does the Kent Beck, father of #testdrivendevelopment , think about refactoring legacy code?

Should you tidy it up first?

I won’t spoil the ending.

When you do #testDrivenDevelopment, do you commit your failing test, or do you put the test and the code changes in one single commit?

On May 16, 2025 I'll be giving a workshop "Testing Done Right" for the SoftwareCaptains Academy. We're going to dive into the following topics:

- What is quality?
- Testing models and strategies
- Measuring quality
- Developer testing
- The fallacy of integrated end-to-end testing
- How to handle legacy code

There are still some places left. For more information, check out the following link:

Hope to see you there!

Yuck, just had a notification from Amazon “Influencer faves revealed - Get exclusive access to their must-haves”.

Wonder if there’s any mileage in me rebranding myself as a “#HamRadio #TestDrivenDevelopment Influencer”?

🚀 Wow, is apparently a now, teaching us to "do The Right Thing" by mindlessly writing tests for everything that breathes. 🐢 Meanwhile, Google Summer of Code 2025 is hosting the Coding Olympics where eager newbies compete to see who can break the merge queue bot the fastest. 🏆

Today I ran a at work. I think it went reasonably well, but it’s always a bit disappointing how few people outside our team are using , or have even tried it in any meaningful way.
