Agile 2008 - Emily and Geoff Bache - Programming with the Stars and the TextTest framework
19 Nov 2008
I spoke with Emily and Geoff at the end of the conference and we were all a bit tired. Emily performed in the Coding With The Stars stage at Agile 2008 and gave a great run for the gold. One especially interesting segment was the customer story testing segment. For this segment Geoff played the customer and wrote a story test in TextTest and then Emily and Michael Feathers made it pass. This appearance of the customer was well received by the audience and judges. Finally I get Geoff on a podcast. I recorded him last year but he will jump the queue with this one. Geoff works on a heuristic scheduling problem that is somewhat tricky to write acceptance and regression tests around. To solve this problem he did wrote his own test framework, TextTest.I hope you enjoy this power duo and I suspect we will see more of them in the agile space.-bob
