Hi All,
April 9th @ Icosystem we're going to do a code reading exercise! Here's the plan
1) Each person is going to do a solo review of the code to see if they can get a sense of the overall design / architecture
2) We're going to go around in a circle and have each person give a little presentation of what they discovered.
3) In a discussion we divide and conquer, breaking up the code base into different pieces for each of us to investigate. And we get 10-15 minutes for the investigation
4) Another discussion to explain your piece
The main question we'll be asking in this session is how good were your initial readings / assumptions on how the codebase was organized.
I'm going to recommend we use TestNG
https://github.com/cbeust/testng/ My thinking is it's a domain we're all familiar with, but probably a testing library + approach we're not intimate with. Because this is the first time we're trying this exercise I feel that starting with an "easier" domain might allow us better success.
Thoughts?
Thanks! And this should be fun... I hope :)
