  • 1. First, Some History

2. Plan-Do-Check-Act0 Originally called Plan-Do-Study-Act0 Created by Walter Shewhart at Bell Labs during the 1930s 3. Iterative & Incremental Development0 The X-15 program in the 1950s used IID 4. Test-First in the Swinging 60s0 X-15 team members seeded Project Mercury 0 Time-boxed half-day iterations 0 Tests were written first 0 Reviews after each iteration 0 Top-down development with stubs 5. We were doing incremental development as early as 1957, in Los Angeles, underthe direction of Bernie Dimsdale [at IBMs Service Bureau Corporation]. He wasa colleague of John von Neumann, so perhaps he learned it there, or assumed itas totally natural. I do remember Herb Jacobs (primarily, though we all participated) developing a large simulation for Motorola, where the technique used was, as far as I can tell, indistinguishable from XP. When much of the same team was reassembled in Washington, DC in 1958 todevelop Project Mercury, we had our own machine and the new Share Operating System, whose symbolic modification and assembly allowed us to build thesystem incrementally, which we did, with great success. Project Mercury was the seed bed out of which grew the IBM Federal SystemsDivision. Thus, that division started with a history and tradition of incremental development. All of us, as far as I can remember, thought waterfalling of a huge project was rather stupid, or at least ignorant of the realities I think what the waterfall description did for us was make us realize that we were doing something else, something unnamed except for software development. Gerald M. Weinberg 6. Waterfall in the 1970s & 80s0 Blame the DoD and the CMMI 7. Other stuff was happening0 Object-orientation 0 Simula from the late 60s 0 Smalltalk in the 70s at Xerox PARC0 Software distribution 8. Into the 1990s0 UML evolves0 www arrives 9. What RUP was meant to be 10. What RUP actually was 11. RAD elaboration in the 90s 12. XP arrives 13. Test-Driven is in XP 14. Tests are Feedback in XP 15. Agile arrives 16. Agile is just XP, rebadged 17. and a Manifesto 18. The Philosophy of TDD 19. The Testing Game0 Red: 0 Write a failing test0 Green: 0 Pass the failing test0 Refactor 0 Clean the implementation 20. Write a failing test0 To know what test to write, you must: 0 Analyze your problem 0 Design your solution 0 Code intentionally0 To dislike Big Upfront Design is not to dislike design 21. Agile Problem Analysis0 System Metaphor 0 Arises from the Architectural Spike 0 A simple design with the defining quality of explaining the system design without reference to documents0 User Experience 0 Arises from the set of all user stories 0 Provides a canvas onto which individual stories can be painted0 User Story 0 Describes a specific user expectation 0 Provides the functional constraints of implementation 22. User Stories0 A user story comprises one or more sentences in the everyday or business language of the end user that captures what the user wants to achieve 23. Agile Solutions0 Walk the solution: for each user story 0 Understand how this fits into the user experience 0 Understand where the necessary functional implementation goes in the architecture 0 Design the functional implementation 24. Goldilocks Design0 Design only what you need0 avoid YAGNI (You Aint Gonna Need It)0 Reuse existing implementation 0 be DRY (Dont Repeat Yourself)0 Prefer sketched designs over definitive design 0 allow TDD to be part of your design process0 Dont experiment in code 0 use spikes where necessary 25. First Exercise0 Brainstorm a realistic candidate application0 Write a small set of user stories0 Elaborate a user experience0 Articulate a system metaphor0 Time limit: one hour 26. Analysis & Design0 There are a variety of approaches to functionalanalysis and implementation design0 The most commonly used are:0 The UML0 CRC Cards0 Design Patterns0 Linguistics & Semantics0 Personas0 Storyboards 27. UML0 The UML (Unified Modeling Language) 0 It has the advantage that many developers have at least some familiarity 0 It has the disadvantage of significant complexity 0 Most agile practitioners use sketch UML, typically on a whiteboard, in order to convey a mental model of a proposed solution 0 Be indicative, not definitive 28. UML Use Case Diagram0 Describes the functionality provided by a system in terms of actors and their goals represented as use cases 29. UML Activity Diagram0 Used to describe the business and operational step-by-step workflows of components in a system 30. UML Sequence Diagram0 Shows how processes operate with one another and in what sequence 31. UML Class Diagram0 Describes the structure of a system by showing the systems classes, their attributes, methods, and the relationships among the classes 32. CRC Cards0 Class Responsibility Collaboration cards are abrainstorming tool, proposed by Ward Cunningham andKent Beck0 They are typically used when determining which classesare needed and how they will interact0 CRC cards are usually created from index cards on whichare written:0 The class name0 Any base or derived classes (if applicable)0 The responsibilities of the class0 The names of other classes with which the class willcollaborate to fulfil its responsibilities 33. CRC Card 34. Design Patterns0 A general reusable solution to a commonly occurringproblem within a given context0 A design pattern is not a finished design that can betransformed directly into code; it is a description ortemplate for how to solve a problem that can be usedin many different situations0 Typically show relationships and interactionsbetween classes or objects, without specifying thefinal application classes or objects that are involved 35. Some Creational Patterns0 Factory method 0 Define an interface for creating an object, but let derived classes decide which class to instantiate0 Lazy initialization 0 Tactic of delaying the creation of an object, the calculation of a value, or some other expensive process until the first time it is needed0 Object pool 0 Avoid expensive acquisition and release of resources by recycling objects that are no longer in use0 Resource acquisition is initialization 0 Ensure that resources are properly released by tying them to the lifespan of suitable objects0 Singleton 0 Ensure a class has only one instance, and provide a global point of access to it 36. Some Structural Patterns0 Adapter 0 Convert the interface of a class into another interface clients expect0 Bridge 0 Decouple an abstraction from its implementation allowing the two to vary independently0 Facade 0 Provide a unified interface to a set of interfaces in a subsystem0 Proxy 0 Provide a surrogate or placeholder for another object to control access to it 37. Some Behavioural Patterns0 Chain of responsibility 0 Avoid coupling the sender of a request to its receiver by giving more than one object a chance to handle the request0 Command 0 Encapsulate a request as an object, thereby letting you parameterize clients with different requests, queue or log requests, and support undoable operations0 Iterator 0 Provide a way to access the elements of an aggregate object sequentially without exposing its underlying representation0 Null object 0 Avoid null references by providing a default object 38. Linguistics & Semantics0 Using the meanings andrelationships of words andphrases employed in the userstories and other material toconstruct a language map ofthe problem domain0 Especially useful whendealing with expert systems 39. Personas0 Fictional characters created to represent the different user types within a targeted demographic, attitude and/or behaviour set that might use a site, brand or product in a similar way 40. Storyboards0 A techniqueborrowedfrom thefilmindustry0 Shows theuserexperiencein sequence 41. Second Exercise0 Take one or more of the user stories from the firstexercise and apply a selection of the analysis anddesign techniques0 Draw up a list of the strengths and weaknesses of thetechniques in relation to these particular user stories0 Time limit: one hour 42. Testing Frameworks0 MSTest 0 Built-in to Visual Studio0 Pex 0 Experimental white-box testing from MS Research0 NUnit 0 Early open source port of JUnit for .net0 MbUnit 0 Another open source framework0 xUnit 0 Open source reset of NUnit0 SpecFlow 0 Open source behaviour-driven-development framework 43. Arrange, Act, Assert0 The default pattern for unit tests 1. Arrange all necessary preconditions and inputs 2. Act on the object or method under test 3. Assert that the expected results have occurred 44. Test naming conventions0 Ad-hoc 0 Anything goes0 Behavioural 0 Tests are named according to the behaviour under test 0 Good fit for collaboration tests (distinct from unit tests) public void customer_pays_in_cheque_to_current_account()0 Contractual 0 Names follow the unit contract under test http://alandean.blogspot.com/2011/11/unit-test-naming-convention.html 45. xUnit Assertions0 Fundamentals 0 Assert.True() or Assert.False() 0 Assert.Null() or Assert.NotNull() 0 Assert.Equal() or Assert.NotEqual() 0 Assert.Same() or Assert.NotSame()0 Exceptions 0 Assert.Throws() or Assert.DoesNotThrow()0 Type checks 0 Assert.IsType() or Assert.IsNotType() 0 Assert.IsAssignableFrom()0 IEnumerable 0 Assert.Empty() or Assert.NotEmpty() 0 Assert.Single() 0 Assert.Contains() or Assert.DoesNotContain() 0 Assert.InRange() or Assert.NotInRange() 46.

Refactoring Code0 A disciplined technique for restructuring an existing body of code,altering its internal structure without changing its external behaviour0 Usually motivated by noticing a code smell0 There are two general categories of benefits to the activity of refactoring 0 Maintainability0 It is easier to fix bugs because the source code is easy to read and theintent of its author is easy to grasp0 This might be achieved by reducing large monolithic routines into a set ofindividually concise, well-named, single-purpose methods0 It might be achieved by moving a method to a more appropriate class, orby removing misleading comments. 0 Extensibility0 It is easier to extend the capabilities of the application if it usesrecognizable design patterns, and it provides some flexibility where nonebefore may have existed 50. Refactoring Techniques0 Techniques that allow for more abstraction 0 Encapsulate Field: force code to access the field with getter and setter methods 0 Generalize Type: create more general types to allow for more code sharing 0 Replace Conditional with Polymorphism: move each leg of the conditional to an overriding method in a derived class and make the original method abstract0 Techniques for breaking code apart into more logical pieces 0 Extract Method: turn part of a larger method into a new method 0 Extract Class: moves part of the code from an existing class into a new class0 Techniques for improving names and location of code 0 Move Method or Field: move to a more appropriate class 0 Rename Method or Field: changing the name to one that better reveals its purpose 0 Pull Up: move to a base class 0 Push Down: move to a derived class0 Longer list 0 http://martinfowler.com/refactoring/catalog/index.html 51.
