Course code: CIRQ-1

Years with company: 0.25

Years programming: 6

Primary programming language: C

Other programming languages: C#

Unit test harnesses: none

Something else: I am both a hardware engineer as well as firmware/software.

Test practice now: Beta testing finished code to find bugs. Not ideal.

Target system: High-level GUI on PC, down to low-level, real-time embedded C.

Dev tools: Visual Studio, Keil

Build time: 1-5 minutes

Coding standard: Company

Function too long: When it executes multiple actions that should be refactored into separate functions.

Code reviews: Organized via Crucible in conjunction with Fisheye (Atlassian)

Code time: 40

Test time: 20

Debug time: 40

Favorite thing about dev: No delivery lead-times, as with hardware design.

Least favorite thing about dev: Debugging it.

Tdd knowledge: Not much.

Why are you attending: Technical management feels like this will help us (engineers) produce better perceived value to the customer through more reliable software/firmware. I agree with this.
