How, and When, to do TDD and BDD Together
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
For a long time, folks (Rob included) misinterpreted Behavior Driven Development (BDD) as “Test-Driven Development done right,” as Acceptance Test Driven Development (ATDD) with better tools, or as an umbrella term embracing both TDD and ATDD. So, how is BDD really done, and where does TDD fit in, if at all? It turns out that the real problem may lie in trying to pin down rigorous definitions for these terms, and trying to determine when to do which style of testing. Rob coaches teams to be prepared to use the BDD cycle and the TDD cycle when appropriate, and to be willing to move fluidly between these two intertwined cycles on a daily basis. Rob has witnessed significantly improved levels of communication, alignment, quality, and enthusiasm on teams -- and just in mere days, when BDD is embraced as the central activity of the whole team.
You’ll help explore why, when, and how to use both TDD and BDD together to build the most valuable and maintainable software possible.
Rob Myers is principle instructor and coach at Agile for All. He has over 30 years of professional experience with software development teams, and has been training and coaching organizations in Agile engineering practices since 1998. His courses blend fun, practical hands-on labs, "Training From the Back of the Room” learning techniques, and relevant first-person stories from both successful and not-so-successful Agile implementations. His clients have included many start-ups as well as Fortune 100 multinationals. Rob is currently working on his first technical book, Essential Test-Driven Development. |

It's that time of year when we start to reflect and plan for the year ahead. LearnLife + PDXWIT want to help you roadmap your goals and connect with a community to champion your progress.
We are hosting a goal-setting workshop to test our idea that achieving goals isn't done alone, but with a community of champions.
The format: we'll share proven methods, highlighted in The Power of Habit and Drive, to help you identify and roadmap your own goals. Then we will collaborate as a group to create champion connections — then we can hold each other accountable to achieving them.
The workshop will be facilitated by Beth Long, Senior Engineer at New Relic + Jesseca Ryan, Product Manager at World Pulse / Founder of LearnLife.
Agenda:
10:00 a.m. - Doors open
10:15 a.m. - Workshop
1:00 p.m. - Workshop Ends
Event FAQ:
Q: Is the space ADA accessible?
A: Yes
Q: Will there be food and drink?
A: Bagels and fruit will be provided. Participants are welcome to bring their own food.
Q: What is the parking situation?
A: Free street parking
Q: Is there secured bike parking?
A: Yes
Q: Should I consider using public transportation?
A: There are bus stops right by the office, but driving is fine too
Purpose:
PDXWIT is a community-based non-profit organization. Our purpose is to strengthen the Portland women in tech community by offering educational programs, partnerships, mentorships, resources and opportunities. We are unifying a supportive environment for current and potential women in tech, all of whom are committed to helping each other. Our goal is to bring together and empower women in tech and to encourage others to pursue tech careers. This is our step towards reducing the gender imbalance in the industry and addressing the current negative effects of that imbalance on women.
Our events are inclusive. ALL people who support our purpose are welcome.

Interviewing for a new job can be a stressful proposition. It is hard to know what to expect and even how to prepare for it. Each company evaluates its candidates differently. Luckily, some upfront investment and preparation can really go a long way in helping you distinguish yourself from the rest of the candidates. In this seminar led by an Engineering Leader at Elemental, we will cover some common interviewing practices for technical interviews and what you may be able to do to get ready. We plan to cover many beneficial topics:
• Morning preparation, attire, mindset
• Preparation for the non-technical parts
• How to study for the coding interview
• How to execute the coding test
Due to the level of interaction required, attendance will be capped at 20. Never fear: we will be organizing this same event bi-monthly because we want everyone to have access to this workshop!
Agenda:
5:00 PM: Doors open
5:15 PM: Introduction

6:30 PM: Workshop ends

Clojure Lightning Talks

This month we'll have member provided lighting talks. We have two scheduled so far and room for more. Get in touch if you want to do one also.
First we have John Skilbeck talking about converting a traditional Clojure project meant to be run on a server or on docker into a AWS Lambda runtime, while leaving the original project's source code intact. He'll provide a brief background on AWS Lambda and how that works, and then a walkthrough of the project.
---
Then we'll have JR Heard's talk: An Introduction to Specter
Specter is a library that allows you to elegantly and performantly manipulate Clojure/Script data structures. In this sure-to-be-compelling lightning talk, we'll learn why Specter exists, how to use it, and how to write our own Specter "navigators". |

PDX Women in Tech (PDXWIT) Presents IP Law for the Tech Industry
Roll back
| description |
Trademarks, patents, trade secrets and copyrights are important assets to any tech company. Whether you want to advance at your current job or start your own business, familiarity with intellectual property will help you succeed. Listen to Carla Quisenberry and Alicia Bell talk about the various types of intellectual property law, including how they can be distinguished by what they cover, how to get coverage, and how long the coverage lasts.
Agenda:<br>
5:00 : Arrive and mingle<br>
5:15 : Introduction of ourselves and short overview of the different types of IP.<br>
5:20 : More in-depth discussion of trademarks, patents, copyrights, and trade secrets—how to get coverage, what is covered, how long does coverage last—including issues specific to the tech field.<br>
6:30 : Q&A<br>

Carla Quisenberry is an Intellectual property attorney at Miller Nash Graham & Dunn.

She assists clients with clearance, registration, licensing, and enforcement of their intellectual property assets, corporate transactions, and general business matters. Ali is the leader for the firm's Intellectual Property team. She also assists clients with issues related to their online presence, such as Digital Millennium Copyright Act compliance, domain name disputes, and development of website policies, including terms of use and privacy policies.

PDX Women in Tech (PDXWIT) Presents IP Law for the Tech Industry
Roll back
| description |
Trademarks, patents, trade secrets and copyrights are important assets to any tech company. Whether you want to advance at your current job or start your own business, familiarity with intellectual property will help you succeed. Listen to Carla Quisenberry and Alicia Bell talk about the various types of intellectual property law, including how they can be distinguished by what they cover, how to get coverage, and how long the coverage lasts.
Agenda:<br>
5:00 : Arrive and mingle<br>
5:15 : Introduction of ourselves and short overview of the different types of IP.<br>
5:20 : More in-depth discussion of trademarks, patents, copyrights, and trade secrets—how to get coverage, what is covered, how long does coverage last—including issues specific to the tech field.<br>
6:30 : Q&A<br>
7:00 : Event Ends
Carla Quisenberry is an Intellectual property attorney at Miller Nash Graham & Dunn. As a woman who has been in a male dominated field for the past ten years, she has a great interest in advancing the careers of other women. She believes that familiarity with intellectual property law is a big step towards increasing the number of women in leadership positions in tech companies and helps reduce the gender imbalance in the industry.
Alicia Bell helps develop and implement intellectual property strategies that are consistent with clients’ business priorities and corporate culture. She assists clients with clearance, registration, licensing, and enforcement of their intellectual property assets, corporate transactions, and general business matters. Ali is the leader for the firm's Intellectual Property team. She also assists clients with issues related to their online presence, such as Digital Millennium Copyright Act compliance, domain name disputes, and development of website policies, including terms of use and privacy policies. She is a member of Oregon Women Lawyers and has also been recognized as an Oregon Rising Star℠ by Super Lawyers® from 2013-2016.

During the event, we’ll have more to do than free-form networking:
- We are celebrating our 6th anniversary (yes 6 years!) with a photo booth courtesy of The Snapbar [https://thesnapbar.com/]
- An Activity Table where people can get creative. This is a fantastic way to meet others if large groups are not your thing. If you have trouble finding it, look for
Meg Aul, our Event Activities Director.
- Table Topics to help break the ice.
- A section for job seekers and those hiring, to ensure people get connected.

Optimizing Customer Experiences through Personalized Marketing | Camp Optimization
Roll back
| description |
nil |
→ |
For many years, companies have sought to personalize experiences for customers across websites, email marketing, ads and more. Yet many have found the available technologies lacking. Some technologies only work for one channel (say, the website). Others don’t create a complete profile of a customer using diverse data sources. And many technologies don’t take advantage of advances in machine learning and data science to predict what a customer might want or do next. Kim will discuss how leading brands such as Heineken, Dr. Martens and Madison Reed personalize interactions with customers in an omnichannel fashion.
Come network with Portland's top digital marketing, design and optimization professionals at the Assembly Lounge Bar located at Washington High School in Suite 213 on the second floor.
Don't forget to RSVP and spread the word. First round of drinks is on us with an RSVP! |

OWASP: AppSec Testing Beyond Pen Test
Roll back
| description |
<b>Abstract:</b>
Most web application security testing efforts are concentrated around penetration testing which is an art based on hacker’s psyche, thought process, and determination to exploit vulnerabilities. But, does it yield high level of confidence and sense of security in a developer’s mind? The answer is a “may be” especially when the bad guy is obsessed with figuring out new exploits to hack your application. The web application developers have to think about intrinsic security that is, building security throughout the SDLC. We build applications based upon well-formed customer requirements. Why should we not, then, build our applications based upon the fundamental principles of security and then harden security from the hacker’s perspective?
