Course code: OSRAM-1

Years with company: 5

Years programming: 7

Primary programming language: C

Other programming languages: None

Unit test harnesses: cpputest

Something else: I mainly work on 32bit micro controllers on wireless lighting applications (using ZigBee technology in particular).

Test practice now: Some modules are tested with unit tests (using cpputest); the majority are tested by running the application on evaluation boards and, after that, on the real product.

Target system: 32bit ARM SoC with integrated 802.15.4 radio

Dev tools: IAR EW for ARM; debug printf on UART; 802.15.4 sniffer tools

Build time: 1-5 minutes

Coding standard: No particular coding standard applied

Function too long: When it is difficult to understand the logic flow; or when it does something which is not explained by the function name alone

Code reviews: I review the code myself when I need to refactor it

Code time: 60%

Test time: 30%

Debug time: 10%

Favorite thing about dev: Craftmanship. Creating something with the freedom to choose how to do it. Creating something that people can easily use.

Least favorite thing about dev: I don't like sitting too many hours per day in front of a PC. I don't like headaches caused by uncontrolled software.

Tdd knowledge: I've read your book and attended a seminar on TDD for Java (Junit).

Why are you attending: I've experienced TDD a bit and it raised a lot the quality of my code. Now I face the issue of having a mess in the test code. And I'm not really testing everything. So, I want to improve.
