Sub-Second TDD with a Dash of Honey

Having a test pyramid is easier said than done, and with the techniques you'll learn in this session, we think you'll have a better chance actually building one.

"Honeycomb" is a software architecture pattern that makes it possible to run acceptance tests in many different modes with different tradeoffs: Speed or confidence. One layer or just some.

You'll be working in pairs on a simple TODO list application that has a honeycomb in place. As you add new functionality you'll be writing and running acceptance tests in fast mode. Occasionally you'll run them in slow mode for maximum confidence.

To get the most out of this session you should bring your laptop with some software preinstalled:

• Git
• Node.js
• git clone (will become available 2 days prior to meetup)
• cd todo-subsecond
• npm install

Remember your laptop!
