Subject: NEJUG Meeting: Walking TDD - Thu, Aug 14
From:    Stevel Lintz


The summer break is over and the next NEJUG meeting will more than make up for the "no-meeting-in-July" gap.
Join us for a New England Software Symposium / NFJS sponsored presentation:
Walking TDD given by Daniel Hinojosa. I am personally a "test-hawk" and a strong advocate of Test Driven Design (TDD),
or at least Test Driven Implementation, and I'm very keen to see Daniel's presentation. He's taking a provocative position to start,
and even if you don't rise to his baiting title, I'm sure you'll both enjoy and learn from the presentation.

Topic: Walking TDD
Presenter: Daniel Hinojosa
Location: Constant Contact

Presentation Overview:

Daniel will be presenting a NEJUG-formatted presentation of the same material he is planning for the upcoming New England Software Symposium (NFJS).
From the session description:

Didn't you hear the news? TDD is dead. Yet many developers rely on it for quality code. Come join the zombie apocalypse and learn and understand TDD,
what sets it apart from unit testing after the fact, what to do when you need to update code, effective mocking, automatically generating test data and lots of it,
leaving code alone and respecting your work, and more!

This presentation will cover:

What is TDD?
Benefits of TDD
How to TDD
Mocking
The Great TDD Debate
Opinions of TDD from Industry Leaders
JVM Testing Tools
JVM Testing Languages
Testing Static Calls
Updating Code

Register now to reserve your seat

Doors will open at 5pm for networking, pizza and soda provided by Constant Contact will arrive around 5:30pm,
and the meeting will begin promptly at 6pm. Come early to meet someone new and to ensure you get a good seat.

As always, I want to take a moment to thank our sponsors:
