  • Primary programming language: Python
  • Other programming languages: C/C++, HTML, JS, CSS, MATLAB
  • Unit test harnesses: Not a familiar concept to me
  • Something else: I love to snow ski in Colorado!
  • Test practice now: Limited independent peer review, personal stress testing for edge conditions and critical logical conditions
  • Target system: Not sure what is meant here. I don't have any specific procedure.
  • Dev tools: Stock IDE tools for code generation and basic debugging.
  • Build time: Under 10 seconds
  • Coding standard: Keep nesting under three, use descriptive names, composition over inheritance, few global variables.
  • Function too long: Greater than three levels of nesting, or exceeds what can be shown on a standard screen.

  • Favorite thing about dev: Playing a game or solving a puzzle, the more complex the problem the more satisfying the solution.
  • Least favorite thing about dev: Scale and learning curve is daunting. Too many assertions of a 'right' and 'wrong' way to do things.
  • Tdd knowledge: Very little, I'll try to come in with as open a mind as possible!
  • Why are you attending: It was suggested by my manager. I'm not a software developer by trade, but would like to learn.
