Monthly Kata - Wind Of Change

Software development would be so nice if we knew all requirements before we start a project. And of course they would never change. We could come up with a rock solid plan and would always deliver on time. But yeah, reality is different…

We will practice how to react to new feature requests, changing requirements and shuffling priorities. We will see how to go fast by going slow, how to be ready when change comes, how IDEs can support us in that regard, and of course why good tests are indispensable in such a world.

This workshop contains heavy portions of coding, so please bring a laptop with an installed IDE and an empty project with a failing unit test.

We strive to provide a safe environment for everyone. (https://github.com/swkBerlin/values/blob/master/safe_environment.md)
