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 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.

In Ayende Rahien's fast paced and hands on 3 day RavenDB workshop, you will learn how to use this quickly evolving Document Database efficiently in your applications to save time and effort on communicating with database storage.

This course extends upon the ideas found in Greg's widely attended first class (Greg Young's CQRS, Domain Events, Event Sourcing and how to apply DDD).

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?

We host the London Clojure Community for their monthly meetup. This month the group meet to hear two talks - including Kris Jenkins on the history of Clojure.
