A given for many software engineers, but a lot of php developers are still only prodding at it with a stick from a safe distance. This talk won't be an introduction to TDD. I'm gonna try to take away this fear by giving opinionated answers to the Difficult Questions. I hope it will lead to some good discussions at the end. 1. What is the purpose of TDD? 2. What are the pitfalls of TDD? 3. How do I TDD with the database? 4. How do I TDD with web services? 5. How do I TDD with the front end? 6. How do I stick to TDD when the deadline is approaching? 7. How much code coverage should we aim for? 8. How long may a test suite run? 9. How can I start with TDD in a legacy code base? 10. How to convince my boss TDD is good? Speaker: Bas de Ruiter Bas is software architect at Harver. He's been an Oracle and later PHP developer for about 12 years. Besides his enthusiasm for domain driven design, he is a big fan of test driven development. He has set it up and used it for all projects he has worked on in the past five years.
