Legacy Code, OOP vs Functional Programming & MORE | Michael Feathers In The Engineering Room Ep. 10

When Michael Feathers talks it’s usually worth listening. Michael is thoughtful about software and software design, for example Michael is the person who invented the term SOLID as an approach to software design. Michael is also the author of a book that is on the “must read” list of nearly every real-world programmer “Working with Legacy Code”. In this chat, Michael Feathers describes this book as "scare tactics for TDD" - When you know how hard it is to write tests for existing code, you’ll write tests from the beginning! Michael and Dave talk broadly about automated testing, software architecture and design principles for quality code, and Michael claims that “OO, when it's done right, looks a lot like FP”.xxIf you want to learn Continuous Delivery and DevOps skills, check out Dave Farley's courses ➡️ https://bit.ly/DFTraining📖 The award-winning "Continuous Delivery" book by Dave Farley and Jez Humble ➡️ https://amzn.to/2WxRYmxMichael Feathers’ twitter ➡️ @mfeathers📧 JOIN CD MAIL LIST 📧 Keep up to date with the latest discussions, free "How To..." guides, events, online courses and exclusive offers. ➡️ https://bit.ly/MailListCDEqual Experts is a product software development consultancy with a network of over 1,000 experienced technology consultants globally.
