Practical TDD in Javascript

SEE EVENT DETAILS
at Rithm School (see times)
Test Driven Development (TDD) is well known as a strategy for increasing feature correctness and test coverage in a project, but when setup for you, the individual developer, it can also be a powerful tool for writing rock solid code more effectively. In this talk, we’ll introduce TDD, go over how to set it up in a typical JS project, and show you how to use it as a practical tool to help you write better code in a hands-on project.
This is a hands-on workshop for developers with at least some familiarity with JavaScript. We’ll spend a good amount of the time tinkering in an existing JavaScript project and going over realistic use cases for these methodologies.
About Your Instructor:
Justin McCandless is currently working on bringing molecular simulation software to the web with React at Autodesk’s BioNano group. He is passionate about open source software and the software development community. Github: https://github.com/justinmc. 
Important Information:

Doors open @ 6pm. Lecture will start around 6:30pm. Come early, get signed in, grab a good seat and shmooze for a bit.
