Talk comments
The talk covered the subject from beginning to end and questions where answered clear and straightforward. The only remark I have is that at some moments the speed was quite high, but that was probably due to the 1 hour time-box.
I really liked your talk. Two thinks I would like to ask you (and other speakers as well) to never remove from a talk :)
1. when you asked the crowd if they knew some concept or word, despite the answer, you explained it anyway. Great ! Also your explanation then was short and very clear. :thumbsup:
2. during your talk you showed your folder-structure and explained some of the files. It was the first time I saw someone do it during a talk (have to admit I do not attend tons of talks). Maybe this seems a little bit simple for some people, but for me it somehow just makes the difference between really-understanding and kind-of-understanding what is told. In this talk I also would have understood everything without it, but still it made me happy to see you do it and I would encourage other people to do it as well in their talks.
great talk: nice subject, pleasurable style of talking... keep it going!
Awesome!
It answered all the questions beginners have when start doing TDD.
But I think every speaker forgets to mention two things I think are good for beginners also:
1: TDD is not only about unit test. TDD is a big cycle where it make the developer think before code. We can think as TDD as specification first, then code.
2: TDD drives us to create a better code design, but if a beginner does not know anything about good design (read SOLID and CLEAN code), probably the this guy will give up of TDD.
