Cost
Bugs
• Cost of bugfix = Number of bugs x Cost per fix, but...
• How many bugs do you plan to have?
• How hard do you think they are to fix?
4. Bugfixing
Tests
Cost
Bugs/Features
• Cost of tests = Number and complexity of features
• How many features do you plan to have?
• How complex they are?

13. a test is a good one if...
• Is really automatic
• Should be easy to invoke one or more tests
• Must determine for itself whether it passed
or failed
• Test everything that’s likely to break
• Must be independent from the environment
and each other test
• Should be repeatable, could be run over and
over again, in any order and produce the same
results
• The code is clean as the production code
14. the kind of test is not
determined by the used tool
15. Unit tests
A test is not a unit test if:
1. It talks to a database
2. It communicates across the network
3. It touches the file system
4. You have to do things to your environment
to run it (eg, change config files)
Tests that do this are integration tests

21. As a developer,
I want to learn TDD,
so that I can write
clean code that works
22. Clean code that works
Clean code is simple and direct. Clean code
reads like well-written prose. Clean code never
obscures the designer’s intent but rather is full
of crisp abstractions and straightforward lines
of control
Grady Booch
23. Clean code that works
Clean code always looks like it was written by
someone who cares. There is nothing obvious
that you can do to make it better. All of those
things were thought about by the code’s
author, and if you try to imagine improvements,
you’re led back to where you are, sitting in
appreciation of the code someone left for you,
code left by someone who cares deeply about
the craft.
Michael Feathers
24. Clean code that works
You know you are working on clean code when
each routine you read turns out to be pretty
much what you expected.You can call it beautiful
code when the code also makes it look like the
language was made for the problem
Ward Cunningham
25. Simple design
The code is simple enough when it:
0. Pass all the tests
1. Expresses every idea that we need to express
2. Contains no duplication
3. Has the minimum number of classes and functions
(In this order)
Adapted from Extreme Programming Installed by Ron Jeffries et al.
26. Clean code that works
• First we'll solve the “that works” part
• Then we'll solve the “clean code” part
28. ... then Refactor
Is the process of changing a software
system in such a way that it does not
alter the external behaviour of the
code yet improves its internal structure

assertEquals(5, a.add(2, 3));
}
}
public class Adder {

public class Adder {
public int add(int a, int b) { return a+b; }
}
88. The procedure
1. Write a test
2. Make it compile
Expected 5, was 0
3. Make it pass
4. Refactor
92. Clean code, why?
• Design is the great accelerator:
• If you drop quality for speed, you will get neither
• If you aim for quality...
• ... and you know how to get it...
• ... you will also be fast!
93. Test first, why?
• You think code from the point of view of the
caller
• This perspective makes for better design
• Test coverage is a useful byproduct
95. Refactor, why?
• What is clean code today could be bad code
tomorrow
• Refactoring is when I do design
• Design emerges, with thought, care and small
steps
• I don’t claim I can guess the right design
• Because I can: the tests support refactoring
96. No silver bullet
• Needs lots of practice
• Requires discipline
• Must think and be alert at all times!
