TDD Lecture Notes

What is TDD?

  • write a test first
  • see it fail
  • write the implementation
  • see the test pass "the red green loop"

How much should you test?

Setting up your own Ruby Dev Environment on a Mac

Setting up the Ruby dev environment on a Mac

Tested on Yosemite. Should work on El Cap. Message me if it doesn't.

Why would I want to do that?

  • You are tired of using vagrant
  • You want to run guard
  • You want use Sublime plugins (like RSpec or Guard plugins)
  • You want your code to run faster in development
