SpeedCoding London 2011: Beyond basic TDD "just like speed dating... but with code... and better"

Inspired by an openspace session at CITCON London on practices and techniques that take people beyond basic TDD, we have organised four intensive hands-on coding workshops in 2011 to explore the advanced topics of test driven development and object design.

In the traditional Shu-ha-ri model, this workshop is on the second ("Ha" - detach) level. At the second level, students are expected to stop blindly following a single way of doing things and learn the advantages and disadvantages of different approaches.

LEARN HOW TO:

get more out of unit testing and TDD
show pros and cons of various approaches to TDD design
understand how others approach solving the same problem
evolve design with TDD to make it fit for purpose now but also ready for the future
