  • Course rating: Excellent
  • Most useful learnings: Be patient, work on very small safe steps
  • Concepts v exercises: Too many exercises
  • Presentation v discussion: Good balance
  • Course improvements: As the focus on the course is adapted to the atendees skills, I consider that it can perfectly fit to any team, so just keep doing as it.
  • Exercise rating: Excellent
  • Exercise improvements: I need more time to go through all the exercises, but the ones followed during the course are fine to me. I hope to cover more exercises along the following year!
  • Instructor comments: Fabulous course. It is recommended not only to developers, but also to those responsible for the development team to exploit the potential of working in small steps without predefined barriers. The course content is very extensive for only 3 days. The important thing is not to complete everything, but to understand the concepts, the good practices, and adhere to the recommended methodology. With James' experience and the ease with which he passes on his knowledge, learning is continuous and entertaining. James' course material and support make it easy for you to keep learning continuously.
  • Better prepared: Bring it on!
  • Start tomorrow: Yes, I can. Indeed, I started some time ago, but tomorrow I can improve a lot, by reducing my tests size and by keeping changes more bounded to small tests!
  • Challenges to applying: Too many legacy code to understand and to break into smaller compilation units.
  • Other comments: Even my time zone is not the best to follow the course, I did an extra effort and I'm very happy about it, because the course is a huge complement to the book.
  • Legacy code workshop: No
  • Recommend to others: Yes
  • Quote permission: Yes
