Course code: WEB-40

Years with company: 14

Years programming: 35

Primary programming language: C/C++

Other programming languages: Python, C#, PHP, Matlab, Javascript, Bash, Assembly

Unit test harnesses: Google Test

Something else: An old dog eager to learn new tricks

Test practice now: Mostly with automated scripts for unit, integration and regression test. Some unit tests (not driving the development), some debugging.

Target system: Portable audio analyzer, dual ARMv7 running Debian 10 on Linux kernel 4.9.11 with RT patch

Dev tools: Eclipse CDT, Visual Studio, VS Code, PyCharm, Git/GitExtensions, TeamCity

Build time: 31-60 seconds

Coding standard: We have some guidelines for indenting and identifier naming, not always consistently followed.

Function too long: More than 2 screens long, more than 5 nesting levels. Limits may vary to facilitate comprehension.

Code reviews: Only occasional. Some pair programming.

Code time: 50

Test time: 25

Debug time: 25

Favorite thing about dev: You always learn something new with every project.

Least favorite thing about dev: Menial and repetitive tasks that can be hardly automated.

Tdd knowledge: You iterate writing tests first that capture the requirements, then the code that makes tests pass.

Why are you attending: Not my idea, but TDD makes sense and is worth a try.
