• Course: TDD for Embedded C
  • Date entered: 2017-05-07 14:58:43 UTC
  • Course rating: Excellent
  • Most useful learnings: Techniques for allowing testing away for HW.
  • Concepts v exercises: Good balance
  • Presentation v discussion: Good balance
  • Course improvements: less time discussing the replies to our initial impressions/concerns/surprises
  • Exercise rating: Very Good
  • Exercise improvements: Would have been nice to get closer to the silicon sooner
  • Instructor comments:
  • Better prepared: Much better
  • Start tomorrow: maybe - very pressing imminent deadlines, with no existing TDD framework, which would take time to develop. Hopefully very soon, and will be able to use some of the ideas in the mean time.
  • Challenges to applying: We work extremely close to the HW (testing the HW). TDD will be very good for lib/framework development, but may not make sense when writing individual test cases (but maybe will).
  • Other comments: lots of good references linked to. CyberDojo worked very well for the exercises.
  • Legacy code workshop: No
  • Recommend to others: Yes
  • Quote permission: No
