Training Preparation -- Why these 100 Attendees Are at TDD Training
| Why are you attending this class? | |
|---|---|
| I suppose, a good and better way to make tests in Rational workflow |
Show |
| improve my nearly non-existant tdd skils (really). i used unit tests on very few occasions, but i think it's a powerful "tool" to improve coding efficency and prevent unexpected behaviour... |
Show |
| - |
Show |
| Reduce technical debt. Increase code quality. Reduce release cycles. Simplify branching strategy (towards trunk-based development). Prevent bugs. |
Show |
| I was one of the people who pushed for it.
This organization (like most unfortunately) is filled with many good people, that know sh*** about how to write good software.
And I will take every opportunity to get better at TDD.
|
Show |
| Because some people in my company think it is a good idea to do so. I am not convinced it will help us too much yet especially for the part that I am mostly working in (BSP/SDK) but I am open to it |
Show |
| I want to improve my skills.
Build managers should have at least a basic understanding of tdd to define quality gates. |
Show |
| I like to have concrete guidelines to do things, it makes the development easier and more straight forward. |
Show |
| To get a new view on how to develop and experience new strategies |
Show |
| I really think that "tests" are a key point to guarantee software quality. To avoid regressions, to win time in new feature developpment, eventually decrease technical debt ? |
Show |
| honestly, I want to produce clean code, and it's an opportunity to learn how to do it well.
I hope to learn realistic ways to do them, not only like at school with perfect situation. How to do it in a pro environment with legacy code and limits |
Show |
| Learn and improve my code in order to be able to progress faster while avoiding errors |
Show |
| Want to learn to remove the dependencies to hardware and peripherals on embedded systems (mocking) |
Show |
| Seems like a good opportunity to learn. |
Show |
| It was offered by my training coordinator and was curious what it was |
Show |
| I know about unit tests and I think I know what TDD is all about but I'd like a more formal introduction. I don't like that most testing is focused on application level testing only. |
Show |
| To write better code and unit tests |
Show |
| James invited me and I'm curious |
Show |
| To learn about TDD |
Show |
| I was asked if I could attend, and I need continuous learning points, but it does sound like an enjoyable class and I am always up for learning more to improve my software development skills - I am confident I will learn new things. |
Show |
| 1.) My boss paid for it.
2.) I'm actually really excited to have a boss willing to pay for this kind of training instead of just telling me to google it real quick and then implement it. |
Show |
| I wanted to learn a new tool set and perhaps have an opportunity to improve our approach to development tasks. |
Show |
| Boss says so. |
Show |
| My work signed me up for it! But I'm excited about it because since learning about TDD I've wanted to put it into practice, but haven't been able to get team adoption. Jumping in with a whole team and learning from an expert is the way to go! |
Show |
| I don't have any experience of working on embedded code, and I've been asked several times for suggestions on how to test there - so I'm really looking forward to hearing what James has to say. |
Show |
| So, that I can start implementing TDD for the future projects and see if I can apply it to the current projects |
Show |
| I want to get more familiar with our product's code base and start bringing up my own boards, or at least refresh my skillset for doing so. |
Show |
| The development lead from our daughter division asked me to participate in the course. But I am really happy and keen to learn more about tdd. |
Show |
| My engineering director mandated that we take the class. |
Show |
| Relying on system level testing and how a device feels just isn't sufficient. We spend too much time checking for things manually that should be done automatically, and I don't want to have to do those manual checks anymore. |
Show |
| Want my team better exposed and I'm looking forward to getting some insights along the way. (And I'm getting to play SW Engineer for a while, instead of the management gig.) |
Show |
| our system needs more automated testing. We are starting a new software development project, so this seems like the perfect time to implement TDD. |
Show |
| To gain knowledge |
Show |
| Learn new techniques for doing TDD with c. My current setup with docker/gtest/cmake is a bit clunky |
Show |
| I would like to learn TDD, and all its ups and downs, and thinking how to apply it with our current technologies. |
Show |
| To learn TDD practices in C/C++ |
Show |
| To learn about the principles of TDD in order to ease and speed up design and development of SW & FW. |
Show |
| What I think is that I feel like it's necessary to learn about TDD as it may help finding future bugs, and it helps deliver the software early. |
Show |
| to improve my testing in code and save a lot of time |
Show |
| To learn something and so I can make my code more reliable. |
Show |
| I am attending the training class because it was offered to me, and I am interested in the subject matter. I found the tdd method useful for team programming efficiency during my internship and I would like to learn more about the methodology. |
Show |
| I’m interested in how an expert teaches TDD and all the extras of a hard domain today. |
Show |
| During an esperimental cruise I got a nasty bugs due to new addition to a code that caused ALL the algorithms, which was running well beforehand, have problems. After asking him, my new software development boss told me about TDD. |
Show |
| n/a |
Show |
| I would like to see, hear and practice how TDD works from an expert. So not only from the books and self educated. One of my first jobs was about writing code for cashless payment systems. I would so embedded C/C++. So a perfect match. |
Show |
| I'm interested in hearing about another approach to software development, I also hope to increase my knowledge and develop my expertise in software development processes |
Show |
| With the older approach, some scenarios are left undetected in lab testing but appear in field scenario. Want to minimize that so that such situation can be avoided. Reproducing/debugging an issue reported from field is quite difficult. |
Show |
| I had a really bad experience on the previous project. I don't want to be in such a position again where my code is so fragile. Needing hardware in loop when programming embedded systems - I would like get out of this. |
Show |
| To reduce careless mistakes in my code, reduce time spent on debugging |
Show |
| Because I want to learn more about TDD |
Show |
| - Want to see if there are better and more efficient ways of doing tests
- TDD sounds fascinating and curious how we can develop tests so early |
Show |
| To gain a better understanding of TDD so I can learn how to write better, more secure code. |

Show |
| I've taken this TDD class, but many years ago. I think taking this class again will remind me of the all concepts I learned in the past and give me extra insight to apply them better. |
Show |
| . |
Show |
| To learn and adapt wherever possible and wherever it makes sense to invest |
Show |
| I am convinced with the value and importance of Test driven development. To consciously develop the mindset needed to apply TDD skills in every day operations. |
Show |
| When I've been able to use it (i.e. in C++), it's been a really satisfying workflow. I want to discover good ways to introduce it into C-based development, and to gather ideas for adapting legacy code so that tests can be added. |
Show |
| I first heard you (James Grenning) on the Embedded.fm podcast, I have your book, I have used TDD before (it went well and I would like to use it again) and I want to learn how to use TDD more effectively. It should also help management buy-in. |
Show |
| I just finished college and looking to expand my knowledge and contribute more to our team. |
Show |
| It's required by my work. |
Show |
| I want to get a practical start in writing unit tests, and get better at preventing bugs. If the process of TDD is a good way to do that, I'm up for it! |
Show |
| First, because of a referral through Tom Stanton. Second, because I feel that I can't have too many tools in my developer's arsenal. |
Show |
| I'd like to learn better methods for setting up unit testing frameworks and approaching testing legacy code. I'd like to be more sure and have less pain in future projects. |
Show |
| I'm interested in making use of existing test frameworks that are more powerful than what I construct by myself from scratch. |
Show |
| Firmware group wants everyone to write unit tests. I was hired on, and they said they do this. So now I'm going to learn how to do it. |
Show |
| I want to learn how to do TDD in an embedded setting and bring back the ideas and knowledge to my team. We are currently using a custom harness that's HW-dependent. I also want to learn about TDD for C++. |
Show |
| I'm curious to know how to better apply tdd to embedded systems. I've run into problems applying tdd to embedded code and I'd like to know if there are some other ways I can apply it to provide value. |
Show |
| I would like to see how to utilize TDD with embedded software development |
Show |
| Learn more for LeanDog partnership. Have fun writing C (which I haven't used since the 90s) |
Show |
| I am new to professional programming and want to learn as much as i can so i can be as useful to my team as i can be |
Show |
| I like the concept, I like to learn new approaches and would like to learn to do TDD effectively |
Show |
| Get better ideas on testing |
Show |
| Enjoyed the book, think there's value in the approach and opportunity to have a better understanding to share with others. Also need more continuous learning points this fiscal year. |
Show |
| part of training for work |
Show |
| Want to see if this class would be useful for our organization as I try and inject more TDD mindset, also figure I can pick things from a more formal class that I did not get from self research, etc. |
Show |
| To learn strategies for doing embedded TDD and embedded testing in general. |
Show |
| While I have used and am using unit test I feel I am not taking advantage of all it can do. The other developers here have taken this class and I want to make sure I am on the same page. |

| While I have used and am using unit test I feel I am not taking advantage of all it can do. Also, the other developers have taken this class and I want to make sure I am on the same page as they are. |
Show |
| I was required to attend this training class for work. |
Show |
| To improve my professional career by having more insight on how to develop applications faster and more reliable, particularly in hardware projects |
Show |
| To gain a much deeper understanding of why how and when to use TDD. |
Show |
| - I really want to learn Unit testing and make it like my second nature regarless of the language that I use to program. |
Show |
| To fully understand what TDD is. To learn the good habits and techniques and to be able to apply them in our current project |
Show |
| Never tried TDD, we are starting a new project (~2months old) it would be the perfect time to learn and implement a more efficent method of developing. |
Show |
| I wish to improve my workflow and be able to create more reliable code. |
Show |
| Want to know more than just the name. Its recommended by a lot of colleagues, want to understand how it can help me and my team |
Show |
| I came across your website a year ago when I was working at a different company where testing was all done manually, ugh months and months of filling in test steps and results in a excel sheet. |
Show |
| Want to learn TDD |
Show |
| Starting to get more involved in firmware development. TDD seems like it will save time and catch edge cases hard to implement on target. |
Show |
| To gain deeper understanding of TDD which allow me to justify sending the rest of my team to training. |
Show |
| I usually work by TDD.
then I'd like to know how to apply embedded software.
example learn good mocking practice. |
Show |
| I heard about TDD from a co-worker whose been using it on his own developments. I see the benefits to it and want to learn more. |
Show |
| I want to write better software. |
Show |
| I have an interest in this and it's corporate provided training which makes it easy to take and pay for. I also like the Agile methodology and am interested in seeing how TDD fits with that. |
Show |
| To change my current quick and dirty (probably ineffective) testing habits, replacing them with a methodical system. |
Show |
| I want to learn about TDD and how it can help me improve the software I deliver. |
Show |
| TDD seems like it will make me and the team better software developers. TDD is a positive trend for the software development community. |
Show |
| learn TDD for C-only projects; understand how to apply TDD to firmware that needs to run on hardware (e.g. TDD for DMA SPI driver that only has problems after the MPU comes out of a low-power state) |
