Screencasting Framework

The following document is a written account of the Code School screencasting framework. It should be used as a reference of the accompanying screencast on the topic.

Why you should care about screencasting?

You're probably aren't going to take the time to read this document if you're not interested, but there are a lot of nice side effects caused by learning how to create quality screencasts.

1. Communicating more effectively - At Envy Labs we produce screencasts for our clients all the time. Whether it's demoing a new feature or for a presentation for an invester, they're often much more effective and pleasent than a phone call or screen sharing.

If you're coming to the Property-Based TDD As If You Meant It Workshop, you will need to bring a laptop with your favourite programming environment, a property-based testing library and, depending on the language, a test framework to run the property-based-tests.

Any other languages or suggestions? Comment below.

Python:

jrochkind

require 'delegate'

class Base
   def foo
     "foo"
   end
   def bar
     "bar"
   end
end

jrochkind

# some ./app/helpers/some_helper.rb, in my case actually in an engine gem
module SomeGemHelper
  def my_gem_decorate(model)
     # Here I'm hard-coding to always decorate with MyDecorator,
     # but it could also be passed in as a method arg, or guessed
     # from the model.class name, or from a differnet model attribute
     # like model.presenter_class, or taken from configuration, or
     # some combination -- whatever meets the needs of your design. 
     decorated = MyDecorator.new(model, self)
     yield if block_given?
