Michael Tracy: Working with Legacy Code; How to test the untestable

Ever had to debug a method 1000 lines long? Ever had to fix said bug? Ever had to push the fix to prod, and pray you didn't break anything? If this sounds familiar, then you might be working with Legacy Code. In this talk, I will be presenting techniques to understand, refactor, and ultimately test such a codebase.

Who am I? My name is Mike Tracy, and I'm a senior backend engineer for Universal Orlando. I've worked with projects big and small, code new and old, but still learn new things every day.
