Coming Soon: Unit Testing 101

Coming up in just under a fortnight, on Wednesday November 4th, I'll be giving a presentation on the fundamentals of Unit testing.

We’ve all heard the hype – that unit testing is a good way, “the one true way” to improve the reliability and flexibility of our systems, to drive out good design, reduce coupling, increase cohesion, write less code, write better code, write faster code, decrease dependencies, write code faster, reduce our carbon footprint, plant native trees, save the whales, reduce orangutan unemployment, counter global warming and colonize the stars.

Some of this hype is thoroughly justifiable. Some ... less so.

Come along to “Unit Testing 101” to see how to make Unit Testing work, not just from a mechanical perspective (how do we write a unit test) but from a philosophical one (how do we write a GOOD unit test).

If you're in Wellington, would be good to see you there!

Slides and links will be posted here shortly after the presentation.
