Welcome TDD workshop attendee!
This Tuesday you are going to participate in a workshop inspired by CodeRetreat format ( http://coderetreat.org/ ).
Before the workshop, please prepare yourself by following those steps:
- Read and think about this article: http://www.jbrains.ca/permalink/the-four-elements-of-simple-design
- Write working implementation of Game of Life ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway’s_Game_of_Life )
- a) Your program should allow user to set initial state of a board via graphical user interface
- b) User should be able to see subsequent states of a game by pressing “next” button.
- Optional: Watch http://agile.dzone.com/videos/pair-programming-show
Our discussion will be based on knowledge you gain by reading the article. By implementing GoL beforehand, you will familiarize yourself with a problem, which will allow us to make best use of our short time available during a workshop.
Best regards,
Grzegorz Dziemidowicz
