Danijel Arsenovski's Refactoring Dojo
Event Info
Description
Why Dojo?
The Refactoring Dojo is hands-on right from the outset and promotes “learning by doing”. Dojo provides a rich group learning experience where participants get to share and discuss different approaches and solutions. It is a focused, challenging form of “deliberate practice” for software developers. And finally, compared to a traditional method of delivering courses and workshops, it is 100% guaranteed more fun!
What is Refactoring?
Refactoring is a technique used to restructure the existing code without changing its external behavior, in order to improve a code structure and design, making the code more maintainable, easier to understand, as well as to modify and add new features. It is an essential tool for controlling the Technical Debt and a fundamental part of the Test-Code-Refactor TDD Cycle.
