• Course: TDD for Embedded C++
  • Date entered: 2021-05-06 11:28:24 UTC
  • Course rating: Excellent
  • Most useful learnings: I heard about TDD before the workshop. But I could not imagine how to apply my knowledge in my daily work. Your exercises (both training and legacy code) helped a lot.
  • Concepts v exercises: Good balance
  • Presentation v discussion: Good balance
  • Course improvements: The attendees must be aware that there is a lot of homework to do. 1 hour per day is not sufficient. The free day between 2nd and 3rd training day helped me to do my preparation.
  • Exercise rating: Excellent
  • Exercise improvements: Your support during the exercises was very helpful, thank you. But it is hard to focus on the exercises when there is a discussion in the main room. Please use the breakout rooms for discussions.
  • Instructor comments: Mary Sue joined our training as German Co-Trainer. It must be very boring for her ;-) There were only a few vocabularies that needed to be translated for some attendees. I think it would have been sufficient if we had translated the most important phrases to our colleagues.
  • Better prepared: Much better
  • Start tomorrow: First we have to decide in our organization how to use our knowledge. And there is still so much legacy code...
  • Challenges to applying: It is not the question if we want to use TDD in our organization or not. We have to define a common understanding how to use it.
  • Other comments: I had doubts if a remote training could be as efficient as a live event. But I was surprised: Zoom, cyber-dojo and our internet connections did a good job.
  • Legacy code workshop: Yes
  • Recommend to others: Yes
  • Quote permission: Yes
