Treat your code like a story and your tests like a story teller
Full Featured (30 min.)
Well-written code reads like a story, with tests as the story teller. How can we become better writers?
In this talk we'll revisit software development and our daily struggles from this perspective.
When do clean coding practices help us tell the story? When is it worth refactoring for clarity? How do we use tests to help the reader?
Finally, we'll talk about presenting our writing to our readers for the first time, in code reviews. How can we give the reviewers right context? And how can we get the most out of the review?
I hope you'll leave this talk thinking about code readability differently, writing better code, better tests and getting more out of reviews.
