“Great class. Had more fun in this one compared to [another TDD class] I’d participated this. Mob tools made this a bit more fun. [Instructor was] knowledgeable, nice, kept things light. ” – anonymous

“This was an interesting class! It has exposed me to a lot of new concepts that I haven’t dealt with before. Most useful to me, since TDD is a new concept for me, was getting the chance to practice the cycle hands-on. It sounded easy when we first started, but I really had to consciously make myself go through the red-green-refactor instead of just writing out code. After the first two days of the exercises it got a lot easier for me. ” – anonymous
