Course code: HUNT-1
  • Years with company: 1
  • Years programming: 30
  • Primary programming language: C#
  • Other programming languages: VB.NET, F#, JavaScript, Python
  • Unit test harnesses: Visual Studio/Resharper
  • Something else: I limited languages to those I've used in the past few years. I'm married with two kids and like cycling.
  • Test practice now: We use Visual Studio's test tools with Resharper installed and providing some extensions. In addition to unit tests we run CodedUI tests which target the user interface of the application.
  • Target system: primary-Desktop, embedded isn't my primary
  • Dev tools: Visual Studio
  • Build time: 31-60 seconds
  • Coding standard: Have the code be readable
  • Function too long: complexity, doing more than one thing
  • Code reviews: We Mob program - code is under constant review
  • Code time: 40
  • Test time: 30
  • Debug time: 30
  • Favorite thing about dev: I enjoy creating things. I like taking things that are complex and using simple solutions
  • Least favorite thing about dev: I don't like code that people describe as tricky or where the author wants to focus on how obscure their solution is for little or no functional gain.
  • Tdd knowledge: We use it extensively in our daily activities. I've found that defining tests is a great way of defining requirements. It's the perfect link since the test defines what's required.
  • Why are you attending: I want to get a good feel for working with the embedded programming tools. I'd like to be more comfortable building and running things on something that isn't on the web or Windows.
