Refactoring and SOLID Design for C Training

This training course helps you build knowledge, understanding and skill in the engineering practices needed to build great C code. You learn how to build flexible and modular software with very few defects, software that can have a long useful life. We teach you how to prevent defects and how to keep code clean over years of evolving needs.

Among other things, you'll learn the difference between Debug-Later Programming (the most popular programming technique on the planet) and Test-Driven Development.
