An excellent soft talk that helped discuss common problems developers run into. I loved the Q&A portion at the end to ask questions and have some good discussion. Eryn was good to not dwell too long on the stories and instead spent time explaining what she learned and how to handle those situations. Great talk with great talking points.
Lots of pertinent examples were given to support rational for going with refactor over rebuild. I liked the personal experiences Eli shared. I was able to relate to the scenarios and understand the reasoning being discussed. There were a couple of experiences that had a little bit too much time spent on them explaining what happened instead of why it was relevant to the topic but overall very well done. Eli was animated and kept the attention of the audience well and spoke loud enough to hear without a microphone.
A very persuasive talk with good examples and stories illustrating why refactoring is generally better than rebuilding.
Presenter was familiar with the material and presented a great overview. He went a bit too fast through the slides on topics that were quite unfamiliar with most in attendance. It takes a while for the concepts to sink in and my mind was spinning on something 3 slides earlier.
Speaker had a strong voice and was confident in his material. Well presented!
Great presentation. Speaker was very familiar with material and was able to answer all questions. Excellent overview of Symfony 3!
Good thought provoking presentation on concepts and approaches for classical and mockist methods for testing. Lots of content for the time but will make me go back and evaluate my current software design.
Great talk. Ben gave new insight to using Mockery and how to do certain things that aren't well known, especially from just looking at the documentation.
I really enjoyed this talk because Ed touched on aspects that we don't talk about very much when working as developers. These values help us to work better together as developers, not necessarily improving a technical skill. These are principles that every developer should practice in the work place and I believe they will help not only them individually, but also those that they work with every day.
Brilliant Michelle! I felt like I could really relate to your story and felt like joining the community from your praise!
