In The Brain of Jon Jagger: Cyber Dojo
Cyber Dojo
A CyberDojo is a great practice environment for learning about coding, test driven development, team dynamics, and collaboration.
In a CyberDojo:
the players work in small groups each group works at a single computer each group writes their code and their test-code totally inside a web browser each group submits their code and test-code to the CyberDojo server as often as they wish the CyberDojo server saves the submission, runs the tests, and returns the test-outcome to the browser.
To encourage collaboration every five minutes the server plays a round of ""musical chairs"" by asking the keyboard drivers to move to a new computer and take up a non-driver role at the new computer.
The aim of a CyberDojo is to collaborate collectively towards working solutions on all laptops. A CyberDojo is fun and stimulating. We will need one laptop for every two people so if you have a laptop please bring it.

Kevlin Henney's three day Agile Development for Developers course looks at the Agile principles, practices and processes that offer a path to sustainable development for individuals, teams and organisations. For many Developers who want to focus on their craft, it is sometimes difficult to get a view of Agile development that is neither focused on a project management perspective nor just on the practice of Test-Driven Development (TDD)..

For a developer, deliberate practice means trying new things, trying old things with a view to making them fresh and trying to move from accidental practice to intentional discipline. Deliberate practice improves technical agility through increased self awareness. Learn to:- Evaluate and improve our test cases using Test-Driven Development
- Learn pairing and team skills by putting them into practice
- Identify blindspots in our own thinking, such as evaluating the quality of our own work
- Learn how to learn and how to unlearn through deliberate practice

Uncle Bob Martin's Clean Code: Agile Software Craftsmanship
Even bad code can function. But if code isn't clean, it can bring a development organisation to its knees. Every year, countless hours and significant resources are lost because of poorly written code. But it doesn't have to be that way?
In this two-day Clean Code Workshop you will learn the principles and practices of Clean Code as described in Robert C. Martin's book: Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship. Find out more here
