P ing Pong pairing is a lot of fun and is my favourite way to pair. It has a game-like style that instils good pairing and TDD practices. So come along to the next XPDX meeting to try it out. It doesn't matter if you'v e been pairing for years or want to try it for the first time. This will be a chance to learn from each other. We'll spend a little time getting to know the mechanics of Ping Pong pairing\, do a brief demonstration\, and then all pair up for over an hour of practice. \;\n \;\nAbsol utely positively bring a laptop with you. We'll be using Java\, JUnit\, and Eclipse. A big time saver will be to ensure that you have the Java * SDK* installed beforehand. \;\n \;\n>\;>\;>\; Thanks to Vers ionOne there'll be pizza for thirty! <\;<\;<\; \;\n \;\nBe t here at 6:30pm for the pizza. We'll start at 7pm.

For those of you who have already done it you either extend the functionality of your api or help someone working on this for the first timee. We will be building a basic API. For this exercise you will need to do some prep before the meeting. We have setup steps for Ruby\, Pyth on\, and Node.js. If you are interested in a language outside of those l et us know and we can try to accommodate. There are some examples in our API challenge repo currently for other languages check it out here: htt ps://github.com/CodeBytes-PDX/rest-api-challenge   You can find the Ruby starting steps and basic app here: https://github.com/CodeBytes-PDX/res t-api-challenge/blob/master/ruby/setup.md The Python starting steps are here: https://github.com/CodeBytes-PDX/rest-api-challenge/blob/master/py thon/setup.md For now here are some resources to look through: Wiki: htt ps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_state_transfer Ruby: http:// apionrails.icalialabs.com/book/frontmatter Node.js: https://medium.freec odecamp.com/building-a-simple-node-js-api-in-under-30-minutes-a07ea9e390 d2 _____________________________________________________________________ _ We are asking for voluntary meetup dues to help cover costs.

A Ce rtified Scrum Developer is someone who has demonstrated through a combin ation of formal training and a technical skills assessment that he or sh e has a working understanding of Scrum principles and has learned specia lized Agile engineering skills. \;\n \;\nThis three-day class is aimed at helping software development professionals and teams be more ef fective when implementing Scrum and other Agile methodologies. You will learn how to create and maintain high quality systems through industry standard practices such as Test Driven Development (TDD)\, Continuous In tegration (CI) and common software design patterns. This class was speci fically designed to deliver the core Agile Development Practices Learnin g Objectives of the CSD program and should prepare the participant to su ccessfully pass the Scrum Alliance CSD Candidate Assessment. \;\n \;\nThis class focuses on automated testing\, TDD (heavily covered in cl ass)\, Continuous Integration\, Design Concepts (Design Principles and P ractices) and Extreme Programming (XP) practices. Class is hands-on\, an d you will participate in a project where you will build an actual featu re using Agile practices and learn about the technical practices. You'll learn about how team members interact during sprints. Other topics cove red include Technical Debt: Strategies &\; Techniques to help reduce technical debt. \;\n \;\nIn order to earn the CSD certification\, the Scrum Alliance requires at least five days of formal training follow ed by a CSD assessment/evaluation. This class fulfills 21 of the require d 35 hours and can be paired with the Certified ScrumMaster class to com plete the requirement.\n\nTags: agile\, scrum\, developer\, engineering\ , continuous integration\, continuous development\, technical debt\, pai r programming\, extreme programming\, xp\, framework\, test driven devel opment\, tdd\, bdd\, Business Driven Development\n\nImported from: http: //calagator.org/events/1250473404 URL:https://www.braintrustgroup.com/class/certified-scrum-developer-agile -engineering-ae-portland-9-11-april-2018/ SUMMARY:Agile Engineering Course - Certified Scrum Developer (CSD) LOCATION:Courtyard by Marriott - Portland: 550 SW Oak St\, Portland OR 97 204 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
