Confessions of a TDD Late Adopter

After two decades of rehashing Test Driven Development techniques, what’s left to say?

A lot! Hear from a seasoned software developer and consultant about the journey to TDD adoption despite objections, skepticism, insecurity, and procrastination along the way. Old dogs can learn new tricks!

This talk examines thoughts like, “TDD is too hard! TDD is for elitists and snobs! Isn’t TDD too dogmatic? Doesn’t TDD take too long? Won’t my code be harder to change?”

Take it from someone who has been in the trenches WITH and WITHOUT systematic testing techniques. Learn from who didn’t drink the Kool-Aid right way.

This is not your run-of-the-mill TDD talk! With surprising illustrations from parenting (Toddler-Driven Development?!), business self-help, and scientific learning techniques, attendees will leave with practical advice on how to approach the learning curve that TDD requires.
