Speaker: Jeff Levinson (Northwest Cadence) 

Yes, I’ll admit it.  Not long ago I was a 90 pound quality weakling.  Other developers would kick sand in my face and flex their low bug counts, but I just couldn’t get my code integrated fast enough to fight back.  I didn’t even know if my entire application would compile, let alone if the pieces would all work together!  It was embarrassing… humiliating even.  But I showed them!  I started an automated build workout regimen and started flexing my low bug biceps.  I started out easy by automating the compile process, and working it out once a day.  But it wasn’t long before I was up to multiple build reps a day.  In fact, within a month I was integrating my code at every check in.  Then I started to add variety to my workout.  I threw in unit test first, and bulked up fast.  Then functional tests, and I really got strong.  I even started deploying my application with every build, giving me rock hard, six pack abs to bounce my tests against.  Today, I’m a quality stud, and no one challenges the quality of my code. 

Don’t miss this session.  You can be a Team Build body builder as well! 

See you there!
