Detailed training description

We do not provide a detailed training description on this website, as our trainings are individually customized according to the requirements of our contractors. As we are not fans of generalizations, let's share how we perceive the professional, advanced, and beginner levels of coders we provide training for:

Technical Coaching

It is not just a training course or a workshop. It is the way to develop and retain skills, methods and team mindset in-house to ensure the

Consistent delivery capability,
Short development times,
Convincing product quality.

Speed of delivery is your strategic advantage in the market, when risks in software engineering are minimized and the scope for new ideas are created.

Clean Code

The clean code standards enable to create an intuitive and comprehensible source codes. The code concepts should enable a very fast and nearly effortless understanding of the content. If you do so following can be achieved:

• better code maintenance,

• much less bugs in code,

• faster code updates

Test Driven Development (TDD)

TDD combines the idea of test elaboration
preceding programming with that of “developer testing.”

Expected Benefits:

• Many teams report reductions in defect rates due to TDD.

• Although there’s a moderate increase in initial development effort, these overheads are often offset by reduced effort in the project’s final phases.

• Veteran practitioners believe that TDD leads to improved design qualities in the code.
  
  

Common Pitfalls:

• Individual mistakes include forgetting to run tests frequently, writing overly trivial tests, or writing tests for trivial code.

• Team pitfalls include partial adoption (only a few developers using TDD) and poor maintenance of the test suite.

Refactoring

Refactoring is the process of improving the internal structure or design of existing code without changing its external behavior.

The primary goal of refactoring is to

• make the code easier to understand, modify, and maintain,

• while also reducing the risk of introducing new bugs.

Purpose of refactoring:

• Refactoring aims to enhance code quality without adding new functionality.

• It focuses on improving the design, structure, and implementation of the software.

Benefits of refactoring:

• Maintainability: Refactored code is easier to maintain in the long term.

• Risk Reduction: By restructuring code, we reduce the chances of introducing new defects.

• Readability: Clearer code makes it easier for developers to understand and work with.

Software Technology Assessment

Which software technology exactly matches your requirements?

You would like to:

• start a new development

• replace or modernize a legacy system?

Consider which software technology best aligns with your individual requirements and priorities. Choose the one that excels in all the aspects that matter most to you. Additionally, seek concrete suggestions on how to approach and realize your project.

What can I do for you:

• Evaluation: Known evaluation criteria, weighted according to your preferences

• Presentation and explanation of the alternative courses of action

• Concrete recommendations

• On request, I can also support you in the implementation of the project and/or technology trainings.

Code assessment

We are getting to the meat of the story:

• Achieve transparency of the real state of your software system

• Compare the quality of several software systems you wish to apply

You have to:

• Eliminate bugs in code as they tie up your team capacity

• Face the problem of less and less time for implementation of new features

• Overcome the trap of high costs and lot of effort on further developments

These are typical symptoms of deficiencies in internal software quality. However, the origin of these symptoms is not clear and you have to know where to start best to rectify them. On the other hand the investing in the further development of a particular project might be the option. These are exactly the things you want to know.

What can I do for you:

• Code assessment and evaluation with your team

• Extreme coding training - performed directly on your projects

Testing Assessment

More confidentiality with less testing effort

Your system landscape grew significantly in the past:

• Do the system tests consume lot of time and financial resources?

• Do you face regular delivery delays due to cost-intensive tests?

• Are your tests confusing and hard to maintain?

Would you like to:

• Complete test runs in the "nightly build"?

• Achieve few system tests in leaner, clearer test structures?

• Implement a safety net of automated unit tests?

What I can do for you:

• Analyze and assess all dimensions of your testing environment.

• Derive a catalogue of measures from the results of the analysis and assessment to eliminate all bottle necks in your testing processes.

• Provide implementation support and special training courses to support you to code according to the principles of Test Driven Development (TDD).
