Talk comments
The first half seemed a bit basic and off-topic. The speaker is quite knowledgeable though.
Very easy to follow. I like to see refactoring and testing done live. Dynamic and fun speakers.
I am so excited about what I saw today. Watching you both working through the process of building tests, while being very honest about how you need to refactor was exactly what I was looking for.
It could easily be a whole-day session including managing an entire suite, techniques for keeping tests DRY as possible, and maybe even a touch on assert(). However, it was a perfect use of three hours.
I would have appreciated more information about when NOT to use the cloud... otherwise, a very informative talk.
The talk was pretty good, now i know i use the "mix in a blender" pattern...
Excellent talk that delivered exactly what the title promised. We got to see an example of poorly written code slowly refactored code that implemented best practices that was supported by a unit test suite. I especially enjoyed seeing how zee Germans broke dependencies and refactored the static method call in their code example.
Helped explain things coming from a PHP perspective. Great as an intro into JS.
This was a good basic overview of the subject. I am walking away with some new terms to describe concepts I already use, but not anything really new.
Good intro.
Specially, if you 'know' noting about JS.
Excellent talk; exactly what I wanted to see. Start with nothing, and gradually adding tests while refactoring the code. Speakers were fun to listen to.
