EDU: Blank Page Panic! Creating Confidence with Test Driven Development
Hosted by Madison Women in Tech
Details
Have you ever stared at a blank feature spec file hoping for tests to magically appear? Well, you’re not alone! In this talk we’ll take a look at how the combination of Test-Driven Development, pseudocode and RSpec can help get you to your initial commit with confidence, one RSpec error at a time!
(Note: You don't need to know RSpec to follow this presentation.)
We're excited to co-host this event with MadRailers, Madison's Ruby and Rails meetup (http://madrailers.com). Thanks to 8th Light for hosting us!
All genders are welcome.
