16th February – Speedy TDD with Rails (the wrong way) / Sponsored by Fatsoma

Ash Moran will be giving a from-the-trenches talk on speeding up the Rails test loop.

This month’s talk is sponsored by Fatsoma.

If you practice Test Driven Development, then you know that one of the most important things to have is a fast feedback loop when running your tests. Unfortunately, Rails out of the box has a painfully slow boot time. In this talk Ash Moran will go over some techniques to help speed up this feedback loop and take control of your testing once again.

  • 8:00pm :: Post-talk drinks back at Common
