Course rating:
Excellent
Most useful learnings:
Unit Testing Techniques. Followed by development processes and tools and the resources. I have added several books to my required reading list.
Concepts v exercises:
Good balance
Presentation v discussion:
Good balance
Course improvements:
More information. -- The course would have to be longer. -- Also possibly a workshop with my code. -- I would need to get my management buy-in for this. I would like to have setup a single unit test on some of my code.
Exercise rating:
Excellent
Exercise improvements:
The exercises were perfect. I was a little rusty on C. That seemed to be the limiting factor in completing the exercises. I still think I learned whet I needed.
Instructor comments:
Knows his stuff. Has practical approach that is not blindingly purist. Speaks clearly. The material was well presented. he was definitely prepared and rehearsed.
Better prepared:
Bring it on!
Start tomorrow:
I will start Monday! I need the weekend to recover from travel! I am doing mostly python at the moment. So, the unit testing concepts will be very helpful even if the C portion is not. I have a C application in my project. There is very little effort currently needed on that.
Challenges to applying:
I have to do it all myself. -- no local support. I want to introduce these concepts to our team in China. However, I need to show some tangible success from the Acceptance tesing environment I am working on. Nothing sells better than success. I think I can dot with in a month or two.
Other comments:
I would have selected a place where the hotels are less expensive. It took an extra half day of effort to get the hotels selected and approved since they were over the $200/night corporate limit.
