  • Date entered: 2020-10-08 18:24:54 UTC
  • Course rating: Excellent
  • Most useful learnings: Being persuaded TDD is a better way to develop software and learnt how to do TDD.
  • Concepts v exercises: Good balance
  • Presentation v discussion: Good balance
  • Course improvements: It would help to extend the duration of the course to spread out content more evenly. After some time, the ability of the participants to pay attention drops. Exercises can be a good break between presentations and demos
  • Exercise rating: Excellent
  • Exercise improvements: Exercises are carefully designed. I appreciated them a lot
  • Instructor comments: Thank you for the course, it's career(life)-changing
  • Better prepared: Much better
  • Start tomorrow: Yes. James went through a demo step-by-step on how I can apply TDD to my work.
  • Challenges to applying: Time pressure allocated for each task, breaking dependencies takes time. But this is more of a issue with the planning.
  • Other comments: The metaphorical approach of explaining abstract ideas is very effective.
  • Legacy code workshop: No
  • Recommend to others: Yes
  • Quote permission: Yes
