The awesome Uncle Bob returns to Skills Matter. Book your seat now! Full content coming soon!

Be part of an intensive day of deep technical insight and friendly discussion to learn, adopt and share new innovative ideas, tools and practices in Agile testing. Keynote speaker Gojko Adzic will be joined by an array of leading experts, including Tony Bruce, Martine Devos, David Evans, and Christian Hassa - and many more!

Janet Gregory's three day practical agile testing course demonstrates how testers can become valued agile team members, how they contribute to delivering a continuous stream of business value, and provides ways to overcome common cultural and logistical obstacles in transitioning to an agile development process.

Gojko Adzic's two day workshop on Test Driven Development (TDD) enables you to experience and learn test driven development by doing it. You will be immersed in a realistic TDD project, allowing you to learn the practices and principles of test driven development and try them out in practice.

Learning how to cope with these changes, understanding how to work efficiently with tools and putting in place good practices for CI/CD can have a drastic improvement on your project, team and organization.

In this talk, Michael Feathers will take one principle: Postel's Law and expand upon it, showing that it ties to covariance, contravariance, and nearly every other aspect of systems thinking.

This three-day hands-on Advanced Test Driven Development will explain the principles and practices of Test Driven Development as described in Agile Software Development, Principles, Patterns, and Practices by Uncle Bob. You will also receive this book as part of the course materials.

In this two-day Clean Code Workshop you will learn the principles and practices of Clean Code as described in Robert C. Martin's book: Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship. You will also receive this book as part of the course materials.

Even bad code can function. But if code isn't clean, it can bring a development organisation to its knees. Every year, countless hours and significant resources are lost because of poorly written code. But it doesn't have to be that way?
