Talk comments
Good talk.
Learned a few new tricks.
If I had this talk a few weeks ago it would have saved me a few hours of work.
This talk should have focused on the transistion of their working habits from an old school long release cycle to a more agile aproach.
The transistion steps and the organization of the internal workflows was kind of interesting.
I did'nt like the sales at all. No offense, but this part of the talk was really bad. Not alone that it was confusing for the audience to looking someone switch through a bunch of browser tabs, clicking dozens of buttons. At the end the stuff did'nt work.
Also, when I have prepared a fallback for my live demo why do a live demo at all? If I assume that I can't get it working live than just don't do it.
The next negative thing was that this talk was way too long.
In summary: It was unorganized, kind of bad prepared and not a good presentaion.
Good talk with good examples.
One hour seems to be too short for so much information. The slides help to recap the heard and seen.
Another great session by Adam Culp. The only thing I am still missing is how to refactor when code is not unit tests covered at all, hopefully I will hear about it on the next conference
Although I use DI now for some time it was a good refresher and also get a few bits of new information.
Especially I liked the relaxed talking style and interaction between Rob and the audience.
Very nice explanation of most commonly used patterns, I only wish there was something more than just few most popular patterns that most of the people already use.
Great session, helped me understand DI approach better. Very good comparison of the simple DI containers with fully advanced ones like ZF2
Informative talk.
Got a good overview about Apigility, HAL and the philosophy around the project.
Will definitely check this out. Writing a lot of APIs for mobile devices. Bet this will speed up my work.
I was hoping to hear more about modules rating and approval process. I'm glad there are plans to do it, hopefully people will contribute more to the quality assurance because otherwise this may become yet another PHPClasses.org site
Good talk.
Nailed everything pretty well.
I personally feel that the (automatic) 'Test' stuff can't be stressed enough.
What I would like to see in the examples would be some test examples. That would maybe make it clearer that refactoring can't be done - mindless, safely - without the safety net of automated tests.
I think that's why people don't refactor enough.
