LRUG Battleship: Ruby Fight Club
Here's the plan. Paul Battley has put together a game-playing framework for Battleship. What you
need to do is to write a Ruby bot to play it. You can do this on your own or in a team. At October's LRUG, we'll have a tournament and get the winning teams to talk about their strategy and implementation.
The rules and the framework can be found at
https://github.com/threedaymonk/battleship. The high level explanation is that you need to implement a class called [something]Player that implements three methods. We'll be using Ruby 1.9.2 for the tournament.

This 4-day practical course is about building software within an enterprise environment in a structured, lightweight and pragmatic way. It covers the complete end-to-end software development process; from planning, gathering requirements and software architecture through to the effective use of source code control, automated unit testing, continuous integration and load testing.
Pragmatic enterprise software development is about taking the best bits from traditional and modern approaches, blending them together to form a structured yet lightweight approach to building software that's appropriate to the way that your organisation works. This is what the course is all about. Find out more here.

Through simulations and practical exercises, you will apply the ideas and practices of BDD to solve the most common issues development teams have with specifications and tests.
