Continuous Integration - Know your opportunities

Continuous Integration in a nutshell

Continuous Integration (CI) is an important practice every team should adopt in order to detect defects and errors early and solve integration problems easily. Roughly speaking we may say that CI is a practice that allows the growth of solid software by giving greater confidence to the developers and better products to the final customers.

The concept behind CI is fairly simple: the codebase is owned by several developers that continuously integrate their changes to a common version control system. For each integration the system runs a predefined set of tasks automatically; these tasks may vary from running all the tests to building all the components.

Semantic Commit Messages

See how a minor change to your commit message style can make you a better programmer.

Format: <type>(<scope>): <subject>

<scope> is optional, and may contain IDs of the task / user story we are changing the code for (e.g. SELL-123)

Hi! I'm Pietro 👋
I am a passionate coder, I like to build products that can change the life of people.
I am a coach and a trainer, I feel proud and happy when I can help my teammates get better every day at their jobs.
I am an agile developer, I try to embody the agile and lean principles in my professional life.
I love refactoring, testing and eating an elephant solving big problems one bite at a time, with tiny and safe steps.
My preferred programming languages are Kotlin and Ruby, but the one I know best is Java.

The people I owe the most are Kent Beck, Joe Rainsberger and Martin Fowler 🙏

Another precious TDD exercise by Kent Beck

Let's say you interested in TDD but you just can't figure out how to write a test before you write the code. Here's a foolproof exercise that let's you experience the TDD workflow in spite of that block:
