Community Day

The foss-north community day is a day of community activities taking place on April 26.

We have invited a number of projects to Gothenburg and provided them with venues. Now it is up to you to visit them and explore!

This day is free of charge, but we would be happy if you could RSVP this meetup for us to know how many your are. Some of the projects also require you register your participation. See the descriptions below for more information.

Notice that you do need a ticket to get one for the rest of the conference. Get your's here!

Please notice that the list below is tentative!

Workshop: Test Driven Development for Everyone
Daniel Raniz Raneland hosts a workshop on test driven development
Test Driven Development (TDD) is a powerful approach that yields better, less buggy code. So why isn't everyone doing it?
In this hands-on workshop, I'll explain what TDD is and why I think it's so good. We'll also try it out for ourselves, using real-life examples. You'll get to see how TDD makes writing great code simpler and gives you a safety net for when you have to make big changes to your code.
We'll explore how to plan tests, the role of refactoring in TDD, and the benefits of incremental software design. Working in pairs (or triplets) is actively encouraged. Grab your laptop, a language you're comfortable with, and let's go!
NOTE: sign up via the meetup link!
Locations:
  • Intunio, Korsgatan 24, 411 16 Göteborg
