Detecting and removing duplication effectively is the cornerstone of emergent design and refactoring. Yet we are *never* taught or trained on how to do this. 
In this lab, we will use a combination of teaching techniques to learn to see and remove duplication form code. All hands on exercises will be available in java, javascript, c#, c++ & python.

Exercises will include:
Sparrow decks to train pattern recognition
Paper & Pencil exercises to learn conceptional techiques
Coding exercises to put it all together

 

Test Driven development is a combination for many microskills and a fluency that allows you to solve problems while focusing on the problem instead of the microskills.
This workshop will endeavor to learn the individual skills as well as build the fuency to use these skills with the additional burden of everyday work.

Prerequisites:
general coding knowledge in either: java, c#, c++, javascript or python (examples will be in all languages). 
a laptop with language & editor. (list at the bottom)
note: this is a very active hands on workshop. Please be well rested the night before

Microskills:

• Writing scenarios
• Transforming scenarios to steps
• Consume 1st programming
• Using your Editor effectively
• Verify results
• Using Coverage
• Seperating code
• Removing Duplication
• Fake it till you make it.

• java -> eclipse or intellij
• c# -> visual studio with resharper
• javascript -> webstorm
• python -> pycharm 
• c++ -> clion or visual studio with resharper
