Course code: BRAD-001

Years with company: <1

Years programming: 9

Primary programming language: C

Other programming languages: Java C++ C# Python VHDL

Unit test harnesses: None

Something else: I come from the defense side of embedded systems, so I've had a lot of experience with waterfall development. I am overwhelmed by the speed and complexity of the private sector, but am excited to become better under the pressure.

Test practice now: Build it and run it.

Target system: nRF54 and nRF52 devices and iMX93 devices.

Dev tools: vsCode Zephyr West

Build time: 11-30 seconds

Coding standard: We have a coding standard that we follow pretty well

Function too long: Typically if a function goes longer than a page, I take a second look to see if it can be "helpered"

Code reviews: We have a pull-request system and reviews must be done.

Code time: 3

Test time: 2

Debug time: 5

Favorite thing about dev: Making things work and building cool embedded projects.

Least favorite thing about dev: Build issues. Getting stuck debugging when no solution can be found.

Tdd knowledge: I understand its power and utility. I've heard it talked about. I have never seen it executed.

Why are you attending: My team is doing the class together to hopefully start doing TDD for all of our projects.
