CODE RENOVATION

At first, we learn how to retrofit tests properly, identifying what the actual correct behaviour of the system should be. Afterwards, we practice on advanced techniques for changing the code staying in green and break down dependencies, with the goal of reducing overall coupling, hence making the codebase maintainable again.

Notes	This is a course based on very hands-on modules. The attendees will write code in mob programming (or pair programming eventually). Mob programming tool-set will be setup in advance ad-hoc, depending on the chosen technology. (If the pair programming option is agreed, participants should have a laptop prepared with their chosen development environment, a unit testing framework and optionally a mocking framework.) Given the amount of information delivered, we suggest to schedule no more than 2 modules per week to give time for the attendees to digest the content.
