Course code: IBM-T-002
  • Years with company: 4
  • Years programming: 8
  • Primary programming language: Perl
  • Other programming languages: Python, TCL, Java
  • Unit test harnesses: Python's standard
  • Something else: I am a hobbyist singer and cover artist
  • Test practice now: If possible, I generate or use AI generated unit test codes when updating software and manually test new additions to software. If unit testing isn't feasible I manually test changes by testing a few lines of code at a time.
  • Target system: Windows machines and Linux x86 machines.
  • Dev tools: Github, Visual Studio Code, IBM BOB,
  • Build time: 11-30 seconds
  • Coding standard: Very loose standards due to legacy code.
  • Function too long: If it doesn't fit on my laptop screen within visual studio code.
  • Code reviews: NA
  • Code time: 30
  • Test time: 50
  • Debug time: 20
  • Favorite thing about dev: I like the creative nature of the problem solving involved.
  • Least favorite thing about dev: Developing GUI or working on a problem where I'm lacking technical knowledge.
  • Tdd knowledge: A decent amount, developing tests/interfaces first before code.
  • Why are you attending: I work with a lot of legacy code witohut existing test code. Would like to address this.
