In this Mob Mentality Show episode, we dive into the journey of Jeff “Cheezy” Morgan, a coach in Continuous Delivery (CD) and lean thinking. Known for his role in advocating for CD within companies, Jeff shares how his experiences with software development and his recent shift into the café business have shaped his philosophy on people and just-in-time. This discussion explores how Jeff's approach to Agile and CD evolved, his journey into Extreme Programming (XP), and how mob programming impacted his perspective on teamwork and Continuous Integration (CI).  **Jeff's Agile and CD Journey** We start with Jeff's introduction to Agile, discussing the early days of his career when dev practices didn't include CD and the impact of adopting CD in high-stakes projects like Y2K. Jeff describes how learning from Thoughtworks influenced his views on XP and CD, and how he became an advocate, eventually taking CD to different organizations. He also shares what it was like discussing with Woody Zuill and Llewellyn Falco and reflects on the transformative role mob programming has played in his career. **From Pairing to Mobbing**   For Jeff, mob programming was not initially appealing, but over time it became his preferred approach for helping teams. We explore how mobbing enhances CI, tightens communication, and fosters collective learning. Jeff explains how mobbing enables "just-in-time" discussions that align teams on what to build and how it allows real-time feedback on other team members' learning. Jeff also examines the transition from pairing to mobbing, the challenges of mob programming with CI/CD, and why mobbing helps him “get the whole system in the room” for tackling complex problems. **Quality Without QA?**   We dive into the controversial idea of achieving high quality without traditional Quality Assurance (QA). Jeff opens up about years spent wrestling with the role of QA in Agile/CD environments and shares experiments with “test-infected” developers—who took full ownership of quality. He reflects on the pitfalls of relying on “heavyweight” traditional QA processes and automated tests, which often create lean waste, add handoffs, and introduce brittle, flakey tests. Jeff and hosts Austin and Chris discuss whether “shift left” is merely a shift away from QA, the Deming Red Bead experiment's relevance, and whether there's a happy journey for QA professionals on CD teams. **Applying Lean to Cafés**   Outside the tech world, Jeff has found a second passion—running cafés. We discuss how owning two cafés influenced Jeff's perspective on Lean thinking and Agile principles. From supply chain issues during COVID to needing backup suppliers, Jeff discusses if “just-in-time” challenges in the café world mirror software development. He shares valuable insights about hiring, managing consistent delivery, and applying Lean principles to run a resilient business. Additionally, Jeff and Chris exchange stories on chip shortages and if Lean can help address real-world supply chain issues. **More from Jeff**   Finally, we tackle some big questions: What does DevOps mean in today's Agile world? Should “DevOps” be responsible for shielding organizations from developers? How does Test-Driven Development (TDD) factor into DevOps scripts, and can mobbing help break down silos that traditionally separated devs, ops, and QA? Join us for this wide-ranging conversation with Jeff “Cheezy” Morgan to uncover actionable insights for anyone involved in Agile, CD, DevOps, or Lean. Whether you're in software, QA, or running a small business, this episode is packed with valuable takeaways on quality, learning, and resilience.  Video and Show Notes: https://youtu.be/OJ5d6qLIQRY   

In this exciting episode of the Mob Mentality Show, we are joined by Kyle Griffin Aretae to dive deep into the nuances of Test-Driven Development (TDD) and the crucial concept of "Goal-Centricity" in Agile practices. Kyle breaks down why TDD is so much more than just "test first" and challenges common misconceptions about this widely used development practice. If you're a software developer, Agile enthusiast, or just someone looking to refine your team's development processes, this episode is packed with insights you won't want to miss. We explore why treating TDD as merely writing tests first misses the larger picture and how adopting a broader, more progressive approach can help your team build better, more maintainable software. Kyle shares his thoughts on the primary value proposition of TDD, focusing on **fast feedback loops** and the **refactor step** at least every 5 minutes. He explains how smaller, healthier TDD cycles allow developers to stay nimble and avoid the trap of feedback loops that last 30 minutes or more. Thus, when fast feedback loops with constant refactoring are in place as the foundation, then the "test first" aspect of TDD really shines.  Kyle also sheds light on common pitfalls, such as the misunderstanding of what it means to "do TDD" when developers claim they have 8 unit tests on 50,000 lines of code. We discusses the difference between **Cargo Cult XP (Extreme Programming)** and the real deal, as well as the critical role of **decoupling code** so tests can run in 5 seconds or less.  A key takeaway from this episode is the impact of **social programming**, TDD, and **CI/CD (Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery) pipelines**. We explain the importance of the "Pipeline First" principle when writing new code. We then dive into Kyle's most controversial take on TDD: the idea that creating a **mini-plan** (a rough roadmap of what to do next) before writing tests might actually be more beneficial than strictly adhering to "test first." This, Kyle argues, leads to more robust code when integrated into strong social programming practices. We also touch on the application of **Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs** to TDD and the importance of satisfying basic development needs (like fast feedback and clean code) before tackling more complex issues. The episode continues with a discussion on the intersection of **Goal-Centricity** and Agile. Kyle questions whether Agile methods are effective without first agreeing on a clear goal. We explore scenarios where goals are unclear or where methods are imposed without understanding the desired outcomes. Kyle shares a fascinating example of a code freeze during "Black Friday" and the unintended consequences of such decisions. We also reference a powerful quote by **Deming**, "A goal without method is cruel," explaining how the opposite can be just as problematic. Throughout the conversation, we dive into the importance of aligning goals between management and development teams, avoiding the common trap of blindly delivering fixed requirements for bonuses, and how real Agile success comes from alignment on solving customer problems, not just ticking off tasks. Kyle emphasizes the need to start with a clear understanding of what you're trying to achieve before applying any method, whether it's Scrum or TDD. Don't miss out on this thought-provoking episode filled with actionable insights on TDD, Agile, and effective software development.

Matthew also delves into the challenges of teaching Agile content as part of a master's program in software engineering, where students are exposed to the intricacies of refactoring to patterns and leading through facilitation. In this episode, we discuss the critical differences between being a crafter versus just a coder, and how Matthew helps students navigate the transition from the academic world to the corporate environment. We explore the importance of understanding short-term school code versus long-term maintainability, and how working with real customers in a classroom setting can profoundly impact students' learning experiences and feedback loops. **Mastery-Based Learning and Psychological Safety** Matthew is a strong advocate for mastery-based learning, where the focus shifts from simply passing quizzes to deeply understanding and applying knowledge. We discuss how students can assess their own understanding, whether through techniques like Test-Driven Development (TDD) or experiencing the consequences of poor practices. Matthew emphasizes the significance of psychological safety in the classroom, where students learn how to fail safely and collaborate effectively. Explore how the pressure of pacing in large classrooms can conflict with mastery learning, and how assessment strategies can be adapted to ensure that learning sticks and isn't lost over time. Matthew shares insights on fostering peer assessments and creating systems where even when students "game" the system, true mastery is still achieved. **The Role of AI and Future of Education** In a rapidly evolving educational landscape, Matthew addresses the impact of generative AI in the classroom. How can AI be leveraged to enhance learning, and what are the risks of its misuse? We discuss the importance of correct prompting, the authenticity of AI-generated content, and whether mob programming could be the solution to these challenges—while also questioning whether this approach could disrupt current educational and industry standards due to teacher-to-student ratios. **Psychological Safety and Building Trust** Finally, we delve into the role of psychological safety in the classroom, exploring how activities like group juggling can teach students to fail and learn together. Matthew shares strategies for establishing trust and the correlation between high energy, positivity, and psychological safety. We also consider whether in-person interactions are essential for fostering trust, or if remote environments can replicate these conditions. Don't miss this episode as we uncover the future of education, one where trust, mastery, and psychological safety take center stage.

Welcome back to another episode of Building Better Developers. Today, we're tackling an issue that every developer faces at some point: panic during software delivery. Whether it's a critical bug or a new feature that isn't functioning as expected, panic can strike anytime your software fails in the hands of a user. Rob and Michael cover handling software delivery panic with practical tips and real-life examples. Listen to the Podcast on Handling Software Delivery Panic The Inevitable Bug: Why Panic Happens Delivering software is a delicate process. Even when you've thoroughly tested your code and believe it to be bulletproof, something can always go wrong. Often, the panic ensues because: Unexpected User Behavior: Users may interact with the software in ways you didn't anticipate. This is particularly common in beta tests or early releases where feedback is crucial. Overlooked Bugs: Some users have a knack for breaking things. These users often find bugs that slipped through your QA processes. Critical Stakeholders: When a manager, CEO, or client encounters a problem, the stakes feel much higher. Their frustration can quickly escalate to panic. Real-Life Panic: A Case Study on Handling Software Delivery Panic Recently, Rob faced this scenario with a technically knowledgeable customer. Despite understanding the development process, the customer encountered a show-stopping bug in an alpha version. Their immediate reaction was that the project was nowhere near completion, creating a sense of panic. During our call, he expressed concerns that none of the features seemed to work. He acknowledged that bugs and design flaws were expected at this stage, but the issue was so severe that it led to a dramatic loss of confidence in the project. Handling Software Delivery Panic Step 1: Stay Calm and Analyze The first and most crucial step when faced with panic is to stay calm. Take a deep breath and focus on understanding the situation: Reproduce the Issue: Identify the user's steps to encounter the bug. Sometimes, it's as simple as a permission issue or an unanticipated input. Prioritize Fixes: Address the most critical issues first, especially those that block user progress. Step 2: Effective Communication Reassure the stakeholders that you're on top of the situation: Acknowledge the Problem: Validate their concerns and show you understand the impact. Outline the Next Steps: Explain how you plan to fix the issue and provide a realistic timeline. Step 3: Learn and Improve Use this experience to strengthen your development and testing processes: Enhance Testing: Incorporate the steps that led to the bug into your testing scenarios. Automated tests can help catch these issues earlier. Add Logging: Improve logging to gather more information if a similar problem arises in the future. Real-Life Tips from Experience Michael shares an insightful story about a shared work experience. Despite rigorous testing, their boss would find bugs within minutes of a release. This constant scrutiny drove home the importance of thorough testing and the psychological pressure of delivering seemingly flawless code. One key takeaway from Michael's story is the value of Test-Driven Development (TDD). By writing tests before the actual code, you ensure that each function meets the specified requirements. This approach not only catches potential issues early but also clarifies the expected behavior for each part of your application. Practical Advice for Developers Before starting on a new feature or bug fix, consider the following: Clarify Requirements: Ensure you have detailed requirements, including user input constraints and expected outputs. Define Acceptance Criteria: Clearly outline what constitutes a successful implementation. Implement Robust Logging: Log critical operations to simplify debugging and provide insights into any issues that arise.

BONUS: The Art of Slicing Work with Anton Skornyakov This episode features Anton Skornyakov, an expert in Agile methodologies and the author of "The Art of Slicing Work: How to Navigate Unpredictable Projects." Let's unpack the concept of slicing work and explore how it can revolutionize productivity and project management. Inspiration Behind The Book "Focusing on 'what's the result we want from this discussion' shifts our mindset towards more practical, outcome-oriented conversations." Anton shares what drove him to write his book. In his coaching practice, he noticed that many organizational discussions were mired in theory rather than focusing on actionable outcomes. By centering the conversation on "the next step" and the desired results for the upcoming two weeks, teams can move from abstract planning to concrete, actionable steps. Understanding Slicing Work "Think of work like a large dinner; slicing it into dishes rather than tasks offers flexibility and maintains the connection between different work elements." In his book, Anton introduces the concept of Slicing Work using the metaphor of preparing a large dinner. He explains that traditional task division (horizontal slicing) often leads to a loss of flexibility and a disconnection between different parts of a project. Instead, he advocates for vertical slicing, where each slice represents a complete unit of value, enhancing coherence and team productivity. Common Barriers to Slicing Work "Old habits and upfront software design practices prevent effective work slicing; adopting Test-Driven Development (TDD) can help overcome these barriers." Anton discusses the habitual and educational barriers that prevent effective slicing of work. Many professionals are trained to focus on their specific expertise and to plan extensively before starting actual development, practices which can impede the flexible and iterative nature of Agile methodologies. In this segment, we refer to Extreme Programming and the pattern of the tracer bullet. The Slicing Work Mindset "Empowering teams to feel they can reshape their work structure is crucial for successful implementation of work slicing techniques." Implementing work slicing techniques can be straightforward technically, but the real challenge often lies in changing the organizational mindset. Anton points out that teams may understand the concept intellectually but often struggle with feeling empowered to change existing processes. Addressing Leadership Skepticism "Instead of promoting slicing, I discuss potential risks with leaders to help them see the value in breaking down projects to manage risks effectively." When faced with leadership skepticism, Anton shifts the conversation from slicing work per se to managing project risks. By identifying what could go wrong and finding ways to address these risks incrementally, leaders can see the practical benefits of adopting slicing work techniques. The Future of Work with Full Adoption "By turning Agile up to 11, micromanagement becomes obsolete, and teams are empowered to focus on transparent, result-driven discussions." Anton envisions a future where complete adoption of slicing work principles leads to a significant transformation in how teams and stakeholders interact. With a focus on frequent, tangible results and pragmatic discussions, organizations can achieve greater transparency and reduce the need for micromanagement. About Anton Skornyakov Anton Skornyakov is the co-founder and managing director of Agile.Coach. He has coached nearly a hundred organizations and thousands of people in the art of slicing work. His insights are distilled in his latest book, "The Art of Slicing Work," which encapsulates a wealth of stories, lessons, and principles from his extensive experience.

Today we are talking about Test Driven Development, Why it's important, and How it improves development with guest Alexey Korepov. We'll also cover Test Helpers as our module of the week. For show notes visit: www.talkingDrupal.com/446 Topics What does the term Test Driven Development (TDD) mean Does Drupal make use of TDD What makes TDD different from other methods of Development Do you have to change your way of thinking What are some good resources to learn TDD Do you have any pointers for teams looking to get started Are certain kinds of projects better suited to TDD How have dev teams adapted to TDD Any advice on environment setup Any special tools Resources Open telemetry QA Engineer Kent Beck Test Driven Development: By Example Needs tests tag Local unit tests PHPUnit Guests Alexey Korepov - korepov.pro Murz Hosts Nic Laflin - nLighteneddevelopment.com nicxvan Martin Anderson-Clutz - mandclu Matt Glaman - mglaman.dev mglaman MOTW Correspondent Martin Anderson-Clutz - mandclu Brief description: Have you ever wanted an API that could dramatically simplify the process of writing Drupal unit tests? There's a module for that. Module name/project name: Test Helpers Brief history How old: created in Sep 2022 by today's guest, Alexey Korepov Versions available: 1.3.0 compatible with versions of Drupal 9.4 or newer, right up to Drupal 11 Maintainership Actively maintained, latest release less than 3 months ago Security coverage Test coverage, would be ironic if it didn't API Documentation is available, linked from the project page Number of open issues: 2 open issues, which are actually feature requests Usage stats: 5 sites officially, but modules or sites can leverage Test Helpers without enabling it, and this usage is recommended, so the number is actually higher Module features and usage Provides a new container that automated tests can leverage to perform common tasks with much less code. For example, you can create a user or a node with a single line of code You can also mock more complex operations like an entityQuery or loadMultiple call, again with a single line of code Traditionally, writing unit tests is more complicated because by design they run without fully bootstrapping Drupal That means that your test needs to mock functions or services in the code you're testing which can result in units tests being much longer than the code they're testing Test Helpers also allows your tests to leverage existing mocks and stubs for popular services The project page also links to the recording and slides for a talk Alexey gave about Test Helpers at DrupalCon Pittsburgh last year, if you want to do a deeper dive

Julie talks about her first conference, RailsConf 2022 in Portland, where she met Elise and Andrew and where Ruby for All was conceived.[00:06:12] Andrew asks Julie about her rise in popularity withing a year, moving from a newcomer toa recognized member of the community. The group jokes about autographs and fame within the Ruby community. Elise shares her role in the community, especially with the podcast she hosts. [00:09:33] Elise and Andrew discuss the technical aspects of testing and continuous integration within software development. She explains her background in Ruby and Rails, where she focused on testing and its challenges in larger applications, and she discusses strategies for testing and the importance of testing not every permutation but preventing major issues, [00:12:46] Julie asks Elise to explain parallelized testing.  Elise details using CircleCl or other runners to break up many tests across multiple workers to speed up the process.[00:13:56] Elise explains what Test Driven Development (TDD) means to her, and Julie asks whether TDD is always applicable, like when fixing a bug rather than creating a new feature. [00:15:30] Elise wishes TDD was still popular and stresses that TDD is a skill that must be developed. She describes the advantages of TDD, particularly in large applications, where having a robust test suite allows for faster development and less worry about breaking something inadvertently. [00:18:58] Andrew challenges the concept of TDD, suggesting that for a talented engineer, tests might seem like a waste of time.  Elise responds by emphasizing that TDD is a thinking tool that aids in understanding the problem. [00:20:59] The discussion turns to reviewing tests.  Elise explains her approach to reviewing pull requests by checking the problem solved, reviewing commits one at a time, and comparing her list of tests with the submitted ones, placing higher importance on the tests than the code itself. [00:24:02] Elise and Andrew compare their personal styles in reviewing code and the importance of preparing commit messages for review. Julie is curious how Elise and Andrew manage their commit history and whether they use the command line for combining commits. Andrew mentions using interactive rebase. [00:24:47] If you're interested in getting into TDD, Elise tells us she's working on a course about test driving in Rails applications coming out on early next year , but also recommends reading two great books: Test Driven Development: By Example by Kent Beck and 99 Bottles of OOP by Sandi Metz.[00:25:33] Julie questions how to handle TDD in a legacy codebase with complex and nested tests. Elise suggests pairing with someone more knowledgeable to break up the tests into smaller, more manageable files. Panelists:Andrew MasonJulie J.Guest:Elise ShafferSponsors:HoneybadgerGoRailsLinks:Andrew Mason X/TwitterAndrew Mason WebsiteJulie J.

They have a free-tier, so I signed up to try it out. And, I must say, I'm very pleased with the User Interface (UI) and the basic functionality. That said, I could not get the Java SDK (Software Development Kit) working with JavaLoader. As such, I hacked together some ColdFusion code that would do just enough to send data to the BugSnag API. What I have is far from feature complete; but, I thought it might be worth sharing.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4462-using-bugsnag-as-a-server-side-logging-service-in-coldfusion.htm 5/11/23 - Blog - Luis Majano - TestBox v5.0.0 Released!We are excited to announce the release of Testbox version 5, which brings a host of new features and improvements for developers.

November 1998), and CFMX_COMPAT was the only algorithm available.  The release of ColdFusion 7 (ca. February 2005) added native support for AES, 3DES, DES, and Blowfish.  But CFMX_COMPAT remains the default algorithm used by the encrypt() function.   https://hoyahaxa.blogspot.com/2023/05/why-you-dont-want-to-use-cfmxcompat.html 5/13/23 - Blog - Nolan Erck - Speaking at Into The Box 2023It's official...next week I'll be speaking at Into The Box in Houston!If you're not already familiar with it, Into The Box is the most modern leaning conference for CFML!

For the last few years, I've been using jSoup to clean-up and normalize my blog posts. And now, I'm looking to use jSoup to help me transform and cache GitHub Gists. At the time of this writing, Gist code is rendered in an HTML with cells that use white-space: pre as the means of controlling white space output. jSoup doesn't parse the CSS; so, it does understand that it needs to maintain this white space when serializing the document back into HTML. If we want to keep this white space in the resultant document, we have to disable pretty printing.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4463-maintaining-white-space-using-jsoup-and-coldfusion.htm5/16/23 - Blog - Adobe ColdFusion Portal - Introducing the 2023 Release of Adobe ColdFusionWe are thrilled to announce the highly anticipated release of Adobe ColdFusion 2023!  Packed with cutting-edge features and enhanced performance, this release takes ColdFusion to new heights of innovation.https://coldfusion.adobe.com/2023/05/coldfusion2023-release/ 5/16/23 - Blog - Luis Majano - Ortus Solutions - ColdBox 7.0.0 ReleasedIntroducing ColdBox 7: Revolutionizing Web Development with Cutting-Edge Features and Unparalleled PerformanceWe are thrilled to announce the highly anticipated release of ColdBox 7, the latest version of the acclaimed web development HMVC framework for ColdFusion (CFML).

This has been working great; but, I've never liked the idea of having to reach out to a 3rd-party system at render time in order to provide my full content experience. As such, I've been considering ways to cache the GitHub Gist data locally (in my system) for both better control and better performance. Unfortunately, GitHub Gists aren't provided in the most user-friendly format. To that end, we can use jSoup in ColdFusion to read-in, parse, and normalize the Gist contents.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4464-parsing-github-gist-embeds-into-a-normalized-data-structure-using-jsoup-in-coldfusion.htm 5/16/23 - Blog - Nolan Erck - My Into The Box 2023 ScheduleInto The Box 2023 starts tomorrow!

For more on the many features, see the following several Adobe blog posts and substantial documentation resources they released also today, about which I offer some additional comment below.I also discuss changes in OS support (saving you having to compare the docs discussing that), as well as the change to CF2023 running on Java 17 (which you could miss, as it's not highlighted by Adobe in any of the announcement resources.) I also discuss changes in the licensing document/EULA (again, to save you having to do that comparison), as well as an observation about pricing (it has not changed since CF2021).I also discuss some migration considerations and close by pointing out the Hidden Gems in CF2023 talk that I did, based on the prerelase. I plan to update that in time based on this final release.https://www.carehart.org/blog/2023/5/17/cf2023_released/ 5/18/23 - Blog - Ben Nadel - Using CSS Flexbox To Create A Simple Bar Chart In ColdFusionI'm a huge fan of CSS Flexbox layouts. They're relatively simple to use and there's not much to remember in terms of syntax. One place that I love using Flexbox is when I need to create a simple bar chart. I don't do much charting in my work, so I never have need to pull in large, robust libraries like D3. But, for simple one-off visualizations, CSS Flexbox is my jam. I thought it might be worth sharing a demo of how I do this in ColdFusion.https://www.bennadel.com/blog/4466-using-css-flexbox-to-create-a-simple-bar-chart-in-coldfusion.htm 5/18/23 - Blog - Charlie Arehart - FusionReactor 10 released, May 18: resources and thoughtsIf you're using FusionReactor, note that a new version 10 (10.0.0) released yesterday, May 18. While it's a new major release number, most of the items listed as new aren't really things that you will "see" as changed in the interface. I don't quite want to call it just "plumbing"--the folks had their reason to regard the new and changed features as warranting the major version number increase.For more, read on.Of course, I had just last week blogged on the release of FR 9.2.2, released March 1.

Mario Hyland, Senior Vice President and Founder of AEGIS, has more than 30 years supporting Information Technology having a variety of roles and responsibilities. Mr. Hyland initially served the Pharmaceutical Industry in the capacity of Product Developer/Manager for a Call Reporting system with more than 120 Pharma companies across Canada and the U.S. Mr. Hyland was instrumental in coordinating and forming a Pharmaceutical (Walsh Marketing) industry collaboration and steering committee. Mr. Hyland served as a member of the Litton Systems Guidance Division, where he participated in Testing that served to address numerous Engineering Change Orders (ECO) associated with the performance and accuracy of the U.S. Cruise Missile System in U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) program. Mr. Hyland has taken this experience of driving better testing practices to a number of industry engagements with AEGIS. Mr. Hyland's duties have included a broad range of Executive Leadership, Board and Advisory services, and Global Operations, including financial, budgeting, and marketing duties. Mr. Hyland has been a board member of industry organizations such as Application Service Providers (ASP) Executive Consortium, the HL7 ARB, and various HIMSS Chapters. Mr. Hyland's focus on testing was spawned by a desire to ensure "PRODUCTION" systems have the highest data quality as possible. By leveraging this Test-First approach, Mr. Hyland has seen AEGIS engage with MCI/WorldCom (FTS2001 - 65,000 concurrent users), US Army AKO (Army Knowledge Online - 2M concurrent users), and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) My HealtheVet program. Mr. Hyland's introduction to Health IT standards first began with the VA, and HL7 V2 (MLLP) with VistA. With Dr. Kolodner's (formerly VA Executive Director My HealtheVet) appointment to the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC), Mr. Hyland and AEGIS were engaged to support several IHE Profiles, and the NHIN (predecessor to eHEX) National Exchange. While working with the VA, DoD, ONC and other federal partners in support of VLER, Mr. Hyland advanced the concept of Standards based development to align with cloud testing services with the Developers Integration Lab (DIL). Through the DIL, more than 500 Organizations including vendors, implementers, and exchange participants were able to self-service and test conformance 24x7x365 to ensure continuous interoperability. Mr. Hyland led AEGIS efforts on the DIL and leveraged that program level experience to advance the Touchstone project, a cloud platform designed to support FHIR implementations around the globe. Touchstone is a Test-Driven-Development (TDD) environment which engages the community from the early stages of standards development, through early-adopters, and wide-industry adoption. Touchstone currently supports programs like Da Vinci, CARiN Alliance CARiN BB, Ontario Health, Nictiz, and Medcom (to name a few). Mr. Hyland was recently recognized as a Federal Health IT Top 100 Executive for 2022, an award issued in collaboration with HHS, the Department of Defense and the Department of Veterans Affairs. Mr. Hyland continues to speak about the benefits of standards based approaches to Interoperability, including leveraging HL7 Standards such as FHIR and numerous Implementation Guides (IG's). Mr. Hyland's desire to support the HL7 FHIR FAST Accelerators in the role of Steering Committee member will be to leverage his experience with the NHIN and other national exchange and information sharing networks to ensure FHIR continues to offer the community a reliable and robust "Continuously Interoperable" platform “At-Scale” for better Patient Care Coordination by accelerating adoption, reducing burden for implementers, and ensuring the highest level of standards compliance across the Integrated Ecosystem.

You may have heard of London style Test Driven Development (TDD).  You also may have heard of Detroit or Chicago style TDD. However, what do these two styles look like "out in the wild" in real production code? How about on teams collaborating via Ensemble Programming? Come join Chris and Austin as they share about their mob programming experiences of London TDD and Detroit/Chicago TDD. They not only talk about the pros and cons of each style in practice but they also talk about when they have seen each style done well and each style done poorly. Then they get practical about when to "shift gears" to experiment with a different style to fit the situation of the code and the team/mob. Video and Show Notes: https://youtu.be/n3thEwckXIs

This is the third and final installment of a 3-part series where Joe Alaimo and Andy Rallis discuss the different types of software testing, what they are, how they are performed and ways that they apply to the software development that actuaries are involved in.  Full Description: Have you ever been involved with a software development project?  One thing that all software development projects have in common is testing.  You may have been involved in some of the testing of these systems or maybe you were in meetings where testing was discussed or perhaps you are interested in doing more testing in the work that you are doing.  You may have heard some terms such as unit testing, integration testing and functional testing but are not sure what the differences are. You may also not work with software development but want to understand elements of software testing so that you can apply them to your actuarial work. In this final installment of a 3-part series, Joe Alaimo and Andy Rallis cover related topics to software testing: Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD), How to write a test, Test Driven Development (TDD), and Agile's relationship to testing. The two explain what each topic is, how each topic relates to the types of testing discussed in earlier installments and why each topic is important. They also discuss considerations and tradeoffs when thinking through implementing CI/CD, TDD or Agile testing.

What is Test-Driven Development (TDD)_ Agile Basics for PMI-ACP & PMP

In this episode, we'll start by separating out Agile from DevOps, and then bringing in CI/CD pipelines.  We'll also discuss DevSecOps and some of the best practices in engineering that a developer can adopt. We'll also give an overview of what a CI/CD pipeline looks like, what a pipeline stage is, what a pipeline's purpose is, and how it is related to DevOps.  As a bonus, I talk about tools for Static Code Analysis (SCA) and Static Application Security Testing (SAST)!  We'll also touch on Test Driven Development (TDD).  ----- Accelerate: The Science of Lean Software and DevOps: Building and Scaling High Performing Technology Organizations Storytime with Dad Podcast

And so, you continue writing your code without tests. And, everything is fine, until one day it isn't. And in that moment, you finally see for yourself what value automated testing could have brought to the table.On today's show, the crew talks to Scott Stroz about his experience with Test Driven Development (TDD); and, about how he has come to understand that testing makes possible what would have otherwise been impossible. With solid testing practices in place, Scott was able to refactor an exceedingly convoluted intake form that rendered 25 buttons, 6 unique workflows, and took the user through up to 28 steps. Crunch those numbers and try telling me that the chance of making a mistake isn't absolute. And yet, thanks to a rigorous test-first coding methodology, Scott was able to completely refactor this workflow - from the ground-up - and delivery it on-time and without error!Notes & LinksSandi Metz: RailsConf 2014 - All the Little ThingsSandi Metz: No Private MethodsFollow the show and be sure to join the discussion on Discord!

What is Test Driven Development (TDD) and why is it so useful? Learn how to use TDD to speed up your software development.

Guest Goerge Stocker cuts through the often polarizing debate about Test-Driven Development (TDD) and offers his view on when the practice does and DOES NOT make sense, based on technology as well as human factors which are often overlooked.  We discuss the concept that TDD is one of a vast array of techniques to choose from, and some of what goes into selecting the right tool for the job.ResourcesBoundaries talk by Gary Bernhardt of Destroy All SoftwareIs TDD Right for Your Team? by George StockerToday's GuestGeorge Stockerhttps://georgestocker.comTwitter: @gortokWatch this episode on YouTube.

Kent Beck is an American software engineer, writer and thought leader. He has been, and remains, one of the most influential figures in the field of software development over the past 20 years. He is best known as the creator of the eXtreme Programming (XP) software development methodology and proponent of Test Driven Development (TDD). In 2001 he was one of 17 signatories of the Agile Manifesto that started a movement which revolutionised the world of software development around the world. He first visited South Africa in 2005 as a guest of the JCSE. This initiated a long association between Kent and the software engineering community of South Africa and Africa. In this episode Kent is in discussion with Prof Barry and his co-host Kerryn Gammie. If life is a relay race, what is the baton he will hand over to Kerryn and her generation of Africa's future digital leaders.

This podcast is all about Test-Driven Development (TDD). TDD can significantly increase productivity and software quality, eliminate regressions, and contribute to developer happiness.

Test Driven Development (TDD), good idea in theory, but in practice? Carl and Richard talk to John Callaway and Clayton Hunt about their success with TDD. At it's simplest level, TDD is about writing tests first, before coding. In practice, everything is more complicated than that. Writing testable code isn't as simple as it seems, and refactoring existing code to become testable can cause it to break - which is why you wanted tests in the first place. John and Clayton talk through their experiences getting things right and exploring the advantages that TDD brings - more reliable software that sustains for longer and can continue to evolve!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/net-rocks/donations

Test-Driven Development (TDD) is a mature methodology now, right? So how do you get it right? Carl and Richard talk to Justin Searls about his experiences helping teams implement TDD. As Justin says, TDD is just a tool in the toolbox for making long-lived software. In its maturity, different flavors of TDD have emerged, and Justin digs into the Detroit or Classical TDD versus the London TDD. It's all about testing, but with some style variations. How do you keep your tests resilient as software evolves? Justin talks about the right amount of abstraction and organizing a hierarchy of tests so that you can manage change effectively. TDD works!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/net-rocks/donations

While at NDC London, Carl and Richard talk to Ian Cooper about hexagonal architectures. Turns out the important part is not the six sides - it's the idea of ports and adapters. Originally talked about by Alistair Cockburn, this is an architectural approach that focuses on being tolerant to testing as well as separating commands from querying. It's not quite Command Query Responsibility Segregation (CQRS), but you can see it from there! Ian discusses testing in a hexagonal architecture and how Test Driven Development (TDD) works so well with the separation of concerns that ports and adapters offers. If you're working on a long lived application that needs to be maintainable, you should be looking at hexagonal architecture!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/net-rocks/donations
