A TDD Example

tjsinclair: I'd like to take the tips/tricks/best practice suggestions from this thread and compile them into a handout for my students.

If you are interested, I have a laboriously detailed account of a pair programming session at one of our XP user group meetings. Lots of test-first design examples and some refactorings are given. Feel free to use whatever you need.

Here's the URL: [link|http://w3.one.net/~jweirich/talks/tdddemo/index.html|http://w3.one.net/~j...dddemo/index.html]

(Note: that URL should be good until mid month when my ISP upgrades me from 100 Megabytes to 5 Megabytes of web storage. Needless to say, I'm working on getting a new site, but it won't be ready for a week or two).

He's still skirting the real issues to make his "point". - (admin) - (39) - May 9, 2003, 11:44:55 AM EDT

Good point - (tjsinclair) - (38) - May 9, 2003, 11:57:52 AM EDT

Do I use unit tests? - (admin) - (34) - May 9, 2003, 12:25:32 PM EDT

Apparently my question sounded dumber than it actually was - (tjsinclair) - (33) - May 9, 2003, 12:53:25 PM EDT

Lessons to be gleaned: - (admin) - (16) - May 9, 2003, 01:00:45 PM EDT

Great stuff! - (tjsinclair) - (2) - May 9, 2003, 01:09:15 PM EDT

Re: Great stuff! - (admin) - May 9, 2003, 02:04:17 PM EDT

C++ unit testing - sounds painful - (tuberculosis) - May 10, 2003, 10:16:03 PM EDT

More: - (admin) - (1) - May 9, 2003, 02:14:49 PM EDT

Code coverage - (Simon_Jester) - May 9, 2003, 03:33:25 PM EDT

How does JUnit (and the like) deal with web pages? - (drewk) - (5) - May 9, 2003, 02:45:32 PM EDT

Not really specific to PHP. - (admin) - (3) - May 9, 2003, 02:50:06 PM EDT

Also from that page - (drewk) - (2) - May 9, 2003, 03:05:10 PM EDT

HttpUnit is more useful for integration testing. - (admin) - May 9, 2003, 03:08:18 PM EDT

We use PHPUnit where I work. - (static) - May 10, 2003, 12:17:17 AM EDT

I'm experimenting with testing dynamic content ... - (JimWeirich) - May 9, 2003, 05:30:28 PM EDT

Can I quote this thread? - (tjsinclair) - (4) - May 9, 2003, 04:15:07 PM EDT

Even better: - (admin) - (2) - May 9, 2003, 04:21:19 PM EDT

No, you can't use my comments - (drewk) - May 9, 2003, 05:10:44 PM EDT

Thanks! - (tjsinclair) - May 9, 2003, 08:43:43 PM EDT

A TDD Example - (JimWeirich) - May 9, 2003, 05:09:24 PM EDT

Ooh, he left out the ^ - (tuberculosis) - (15) - May 10, 2003, 10:01:19 PM EDT

That's just evil to the core. :-) -NT - (ChrisR) - (1) - May 10, 2003, 11:37:38 PM EDT

It's C++, what do you expect? -NT - (tuberculosis) - May 11, 2003, 05:43:45 PM EDT

I would only use that if it were properly commented. -NT - (static) - (12) - May 12, 2003, 08:43:53 AM EDT

I'd probably never use it at all - (tuberculosis) - (11) - May 12, 2003, 10:35:20 AM EDT

Its a cool parlor trick... - (jb4) - (10) - May 12, 2003, 01:08:32 PM EDT

Not even really a C++ issue as such, is it? - (deSitter) - (9) - May 12, 2003, 01:25:21 PM EDT

Its a Duff Device - (tuberculosis) - (5) - May 12, 2003, 08:50:05 PM EDT

Yep - it's assembler in C -NT - (deSitter) - (4) - May 12, 2003, 11:25:43 PM EDT

Most ASM Languages have a SWAP instruction. -NT - (ChrisR) - (3) - May 13, 2003, 12:25:46 AM EDT

Yes, not my point - (deSitter) - (1) - May 13, 2003, 11:18:05 AM EDT

And my point... - (ChrisR) - May 13, 2003, 11:27:46 AM EDT

SWAP? - (JimWeirich) - May 13, 2003, 11:20:14 AM EDT

That's ANSI C?!? - (jb4) - (2) - May 14, 2003, 01:46:33 PM EDT

That's ANSI C?!? ... YES - (JimWeirich) - May 14, 2003, 01:58:08 PM EDT

Re: That's ANSI C?!? - (deSitter) - May 14, 2003, 02:22:19 PM EDT

Re: Good point - (JimWeirich) - (2) - May 9, 2003, 03:05:12 PM EDT

Another good point - (admin) - (1) - May 9, 2003, 03:10:26 PM EDT

Me too. - (static) - May 10, 2003, 12:19:54 AM EDT

FWIW, Squeak is undergoing a huge refactoring effort - (tuberculosis) - May 10, 2003, 10:07:09 PM EDT

Fighting and romance are weirdly similar in many ways. Two people lock eyes in a crowded room. Everybody can feel the intensity of the emotions between them. One of them suggests that they step outside. “Come on, just you and me.” It starts out dignified, but they end up rolling around, tearing at each other’s clothing.

Also, both fighting and romance tend to look a lot better in movies than they do in real life.
