Course code: MICRON-8

Years with company: 2

Years programming: 35

Primary programming language: C++

Other programming languages: C, C#, Python, Assembler

Unit test harnesses: Parasoft

Something else: An old dog who still learns new tricks but doesn't expect to be asked to jump through hoops.

Test practice now: Consider how a module can be tested when designing API; write unit tests at same time as implementing code; integration and system testing done as a separate exercise before verification/validation

Target system: SoC ARM A-9 core; Tensilica Mini108 core

Dev tools: Xtensa IDE toolchain; TBD for ARM

Build time: 31-60 seconds

Coding standard: Based on MISRA; centrally agreed and reviewed for all Micron Firmware

Function too long: Won't fit on a single screen

Code reviews: Use Stash pull requests as gatekeeper; reviewer can add comments and tasks

Code time: 20

Test time: 40

Debug time: 40

Favorite thing about dev: Producing cleanly designed efficient code

Least favorite thing about dev: Brainstorming initial stages

Tdd knowledge: Design and implement tests (to fail) before implementing code

Why are you attending: Always interested in new ideas and processes
