Test Driven Development Webinar
TDD is a fundamental cornerstone of agile software development practices. It is fast becoming part of the everyday toolbox of the professional software developer.
This training course is a hands on introduction to the basics of test driven development. You will learn the benefits of following a test driven approach by driving out the design for an example programming exercise. Your trainer will start the ball rolling with a few example tests and then coach each attendee through the process of driving out the next step of the exercise using test driven techniques.
The course is a two hour webinar. You will need a good internet connection and a basic understanding of Java as we will be using Java and JUnit.
This webinar workshop has a maximum of five attendees to ensure there is enough time for interaction between the trainer and the attendees throughout the session.
Your trainer is Jon Dickinson, a software developer with 12+ years experience developing software in a commercial environment. He has been practicing test driven development for over 7 years. Jon joined ThoughtWorks London in 2004 to learn agile software development and has worked and consulted at a number of large blue chip organisations before, during and since his time at ThoughtWorks.
