Course code: SP-CPP-3

Years with company: 3.5

Years programming: 16

Primary programming language: C

Other programming languages: C++, python, bash

Unit test harnesses: pytest, googletest, cppunit

Something else: I chose embedded as my career because I really liked working with FPGAs at university, but due to the job market situation in my country I have been working mostly with embedded software. I like the challenge of resolving HW/SW problems.

Test practice now: On my current python project (3D camera calibration analysis software) I use a combination of unit tests and manual testing. For the camera side we develop Linux drivers and c++ demo and test applications, and this is tested by developers.

Target system: Nvidia Jetson with Ubuntu Linux, but also other similar SoC Linux platforms (NXP, TI ...).

Dev tools: Visual Studio Code, Git, RhodeCode

Build time: 1-5 minutes

Coding standard: We have an internal coding standard but it is not enforced in my team.

Function too long: It doesn't fit on my screen or I can't follow it

Code reviews: They are informal if any, we have been exploring making it part of the process but no consensus yet.

Code time: 33%

Test time: 33%

Debug time: 33%

Favorite thing about dev: The feeling of mastery, establishing order & repeatability, problem solving, making things work.

Least favorite thing about dev: Working on low quality software that behaves erratically. Chaos that ensues when requirements change

Tdd knowledge: I read your book "Test driven development for Embedded C"; my previous job used TDD in automotive.

Why are you attending: I think my software development skills have been stagnating, I hope to do more coding and learn.
