Favorite thing about dev: The challenge of resolving puzzles, and watching the behavior of the logic formulate and work (great feeling passing a test). I like to fix bugs and stomp out the problem.

Least favorite thing about dev: Testbed Setups and finding and gathering the materials for the setup.

Tdd knowledge: I read about 4 chapters of your TDD book. Also have heard of and discussed the philosophy of TDD before that with previous SW engineers I worked with.

Why are you attending: To help grow and improve my testing approach to deliver better quality and safe software (since Lithium Batteries can be hazardous if not run correctly)...
