Mini Code Retreat
Details
PRESENTATIONS:
We're going to take the entire night to practice our software development skills by practicing test-driven development in pairs.
It is hands-on so bring a laptop (more details below in the "What to Bring" section) and a healthy bit of curiosity. We will not mandate a language to work in so if you're interested in doing the kata in something specific, bring a development environment with a testing framework set up and ready to go.

7:00 - First round
*****************
LOCATION:
Detroit Labs
1520 Woodward Ave. 5th floor,
Detroit, MI 48226
PARKING: Flat fee parking is available at the Detroit Opera House parking structure or metered parking is available on the streets.
TO BRING: This is an entirely hands-on event. If you have a TDD-ready environment already set up on your laptop, please bring it. If you don't, come anyway. Since we will be pairing all night we only really need for half of everyone to have ready environments. That said, if you have something that will work please bring it. We will need to rely on our more experienced members a little for this event.
If you don't have a TDD environment set up can rely on using cyber-dojo.com which we can briefly go over how to set up the kata and languages.
I also have a TDD-ready project set up for JavaScript (https://github.com/kroysemaj/jasmine-seed) using Jasmine and gulp.
QUESTIONS? I love answering questions, it makes me feel smart! If you have additional questions or would like to talk further, please contact James York (kroysemaj@gmail.com)
