Course code: MEG-2

Years with company: 1

Years programming: 20

Primary programming language: C

Other programming languages: C++, C#, assembly

Unit test harnesses: Ceedling, NUnit

Something else: Most experience in programming in C/C++ for Embedded systems. Started programming in C# about 1 year ago.

Test practice now: Test cases are written in Ceedling for an Embedded C project, and NUnit for a C# project. Note that sometimes the test cases are written "after the fact". Additional tests done by QA after a release candidate is ready.

Target system: It is a two Embedded processor system, one runs code written in C, the other in C# running on WinCE.

Dev tools: Debugger, simulator, demo code, test harnesses, lab tools.

Build time: Under 10 seconds

Coding standard: This is a legacy product which unfortunately does not follow a specific coding standard.

Function too long: Usually when it goes beyond 150 lines; when there is repeated code that can be grouped.

Code reviews: If code reviews are done (if at all) they are informal.

Code time: 50

Test time: 25

Debug time: 25

Favorite thing about dev: I believe developing software is actually really fun.

Least favorite thing about dev: Legacy code touched by many engineers who btw no longer work at the company...

Tdd knowledge: Been using it for about 1 year. It is great to give confidence when something has changed or added.

Why are you attending: Never had a formal training. I do believe it is very helpful to prevent bugs to be found late.
