Testing First - Getting The How

"But how can I test first when I dont't know what I am going to write?" How many times have we heard this statement when we are trying to encourage individuals and teams to test first? In this session Stacy is going to look at what can happen in these scenarios, and the problems that can happen when working this way using a couple of real world examples. Rounding off the session she'll go through a project looking at how to add the testing from the start - and show the benefits it can bring when changes are requested of the code! Additional notes This session will be about 50% live coding. The first half will be looking at some of our ways of working that make testing first seem hard, and some people skills that can help that. The second half will be making a simple application and showing it can be built with testing in mind, and then showing how changing the code becomes much simpler once it is there.
