TDD for Embedded C++
Date entered:

Course rating:
Very Good
Most useful learnings:
I feel like I already had a fairly strong unit testing background, but had never had any real experience with true TDD. So, doing the exercises using pure TDD was very useful to me.
Concepts v exercises:
Good balance
Presentation v discussion:
Good balance
Course improvements:
I feel like the legacy code workshop might have worked a little better if we had been pushed a little more before hand to think more about what component we wanted to get under test, and to get everything set up (development environment, etc.) before the class.
Exercise rating:
Very Good
Exercise improvements:
I actually thought the exercises were fine. I'm not sure if they need to be improved.
Instructor comments:
I thought James was great. He was very prepared for all of our questions and concerns.
Better prepared:
Bring it on!
Start tomorrow:
Yes. We already have all the infrastructure in place that we need to start writing unit tests. We would just need to change our approach from writing tests after writing a bit of code to using TDD to write the tests first.
Challenges to applying:
Just getting comfortable with TDD.
