The first International Test Driven Development took place on July 10th In this series, I will include every talk together with my notes and further reading. Hopefully, a lot of readers will watch and rewatch the talks, as they are worth several views. Let's start... Bio Alex is a software engineering veteran with over 30 years of hands-on professional experience. A staunch advocate of Extreme Programming and TDD, Alex is currently leading DevOps teams by coaching them in TDD practices. With a science background, Alex shows us how to build software by watching nature TL;DR: Setting the stage for the TDD revolution, how did it all begin and where are we today with TDD. Talk https://youtu.be/-_noEVCR__I?t=333 My Personal notes This is the first conference and the passing torch to younger generations of TDD enthusiasts. We discovered TDD several years ago thanks to Kent Beck. We evolved with James Grenning's . Zombies Formula Ron Jeffries' Never let the code not be working. And so on... Why TDD? TDD is not as easy to sell as clean code, agility, secure architectures. We will consider it, but there's no time now. TDD as a scientific method Based on positive enforcement and short feedback loops. Watching nature phenomena. Everything happens as a response to what happened earlier. The Four current problems when we try to plan Uncertainty Ambiguity Incompleteness Confusion TDD Breakthroughs TDD Removes non-productive code. Less Debugger time. No more manually run the app. No different manual test scenarios, credentials, navigation, configuration, environments, etc. Speaker Links Twitter @alexbunardzic Medium @alex-bunardzic LinkedIn @alexbunardzic @ Alex Bunardzic Please follow TDD Conference on: YouTube Twitter Also published on: https://maximilianocontieri.com/tdd-conference-2021-opening-ceremony-by-alex-bunardzic
