In The Brain of John Smart: Real Programmers Don't Need Unit Tests
Real Programmers Don't Need Unit Tests
John Smart, creator of the Java Power Tools Bootcamp, author of Java Power Tools (O'Reilly), will talk about unit testing, a vital but often neglected art.
Good unit tests don't just test code: they are executable requirements that tell the story of your application, clarify your design, document your code and help track your progress. They help you find bugs fast, and fix them with confidence. If Real programmers don't need unit tests, they sure make life easier for the rest of us!
Learn about:
- Why Chuck Norris doesn't need unit tests ;-)
- Writing unit tests that tell a story
- Writing more robust TDD tests
- Common questions from TDD unbelievers
