You’ll need to collaborate a lot during this workshop, so let’s get started with an activity that will get you to know each other.

Introduce yourself to a person seated next to you. Tell this person why you are here and what you want to learn from this workshop.

Before we start!

On a piece of paper, note down your 1 or 2 expectation(s) out of this workshop.

Organization of this workshop

During this workshop, you’ll be working on a codebase where 2 bugs just got fixed without adding a test first. You’ve been tasked to write the unit tests covering the fixes.

As this should prove difficult, we’ll present how to combine 2 techniques, test data builders and the mikado method, to add tests without stopping feature delivery.

You’ll be programming in mob or pairs for most of the workshop.

You’ll find links to “Web Centers”: web pages containing documentation and references to important concepts in this workshop. If you are in a room, there might also be ‘Wall Centers’ on the wall were you’ll find similar information and physical books.

You’ll find a “Build Manual” for each of the supported languages. Those manuals will help you compile, run and load the project in your favorite IDE:
