Talk comments
A really interesting perspective and a tool. Talk also briefly touched couple of important points about different levels of testing and amount of required details in the communication. That said, most of the talk was dedicated to blaming a tool instead of actually focusing on the underlying testing and development processes change that actually did end up solving the problem.
Not enough rabbits. B-. Must try harder....
All joking aside James is a great speaker and the talk was really interesting. I would love to see the full talk as it was obviously cut down to fit the unconf format. Despite the edits James gave a really good introduction in to what you could/would use RabbitMQ for, why you would want to, and some of the tools to get it into your project
It's best when you leave a talk inspired to teach yourself more about a topic, and again Anthony delivered a superb enjoyable and educational talk.
Very much enjoyed, Sara speaks so well, and Hack is an interesting topic, thanks Sara.
Really enjoyable talk from an enthusiastic speaker.
Funny and informative.
A good talk although I felt it might have been clearer titled. Especially as the physical programmes had no hint as to content; Ideally the word refactoring should have featured in the title.
I totally understand the point that was trying to get across, but the code picked that was demonstrated I think was actually not too difficult to test... There is much harder code to test, when you get strange states and global state that you can't override... The approach demonstrated worked well, but in my experience I think (in my opinion of course) sometimes you just HAVE to refactor to make things more "testable".
Great content and Michelangelo really delivered it well. The session covers many of the "common sense" things we should all be doing, but introduces a lot of the language and ideals behind selling testing, CI and the rest to management.
This definitely gave me some of the best take aways from the conference and we have already been talking about how we can improve out QA processes
Thank you!
Excellent talk if a little heavy for a 9am slot.
This was a great talk. Not only did I really enjoy Jez's presentational style (reminded me of Dave Gorman), but I got a lot more from it than I was expecting. It helped convince me that my plan to ditch Scrum in my team and have a go with Kanban instead is a sound one.
