  • Favorite thing about dev: The challenge of problem solving.
  • Least favorite thing about dev: When I don't understand why something is not working the way I expected it to.
  • Tdd knowledge: Test Driven Development/Design. Write the tests first, see them fail, then make them work.
  • Why are you attending: My boss suggested that I take it. I don't believe it's because he thinks I need it, but so we might get some evangelists who can champion the benefits and practice of TDD.
