Yet object-oriented development princip les and TDD have failed to gain traction in the database world. That’s b ecause database development involves an additional driving force—the dat a. \;\n \;\nMax Guernsey shows how to treat databases as objects with classes of their own—rather than as containers of objects—and how t o drive database designs from tests. He illustrates a way to give these database classes the ability to upgrade old data without introducing und ue risk. Max also shares how to apply good object-oriented design princi ples to database classes and how to enforce semantic connections between databases and clients. Max demonstrates how it all works together\, ens uring that your production databases work exactly the same as test datab ases\, minimizing the risk of design changes\, and enabling client appli cations to more easily keep up with database changes. \;\n \;\nCom e for pizza &\; networking from 6:30pm. The program starts at 7:00 pm . \;\n \;\n__Speaker Bio__ \;\nMax Guernsey is currently a Man aging Member at Hexagon Software LLC. He has 15 years of experience as a professional software developer. For nearly half that time\, he has bee n blogging\, writing\, and delivering lectures on the topic of agile and test-driven database development. For much of Max’s professional career \, he has been a consultant\, advising a variety of software companies i n many different industries using multiple programming and database tech nologies. In most of these engagements\, he spent months or even years h elping teams implement cutting-edge techniques such as test-driven devel opment\, object-oriented design\, acceptance-test-driven development\, a nd agile planning. \;\n \;\nMax has always been a “hands-on” consu ltant\, working with teams for long periods of time to help them build b oth software and skills. This series of diverse\, yet deep\, engagements helped him gain a unique understanding of the database-related testing and design problems that impede most agile teams. Since 2005\, he has be en thinking\, writing\, blogging\, lecturing\, and creating developer-fa cing software dedicated to resolving these issues. \;\n \;\nMax po sts regularly on his Twitter account (@MaxGuernseyIII) and his blog (max g3prog.blogspot.com).\n\nTags: agile\, software development\, tdd\, pear l\, it\, agilepdx\, Information Technology\, Portland downtown\n\nImport ed from: http://calagator.org/events/1250463707 URL:http://agilepdx.org SUMMARY:Agile PDX presents Max Guernsey\, "Test-Driven Database Developme nt" LOCATION:Puppet: 308 SW 2nd Ave Fifth Floor\, Portland OR 97204 US SEQUENCE:2 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130402T175415Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130417T201500 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130417T183000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130402T175415Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20130402T175415Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250463952 DESCRIPTION:What do a 17th century painter’s workshop\, an international photographic cooperative\, and an early 20th century design house have i n common with a modern software development team? On the surface it may not seem like much\, but bringing a group of makers together to work pre sents special challenges and opportunities\, regardless of field. \;\ n \;\nIn this session we’ll explore what worked\, and didn’t\, for se veral groups of historical makers. We’ll draw parallels with agile softw are development teams\, and discuss coaching strategies around the examp les provided. \;\n \;\nNathaniel Cadwell has over thirteen years o f strategic consulting experience in software development\, Agile enable ment\, and change management\, helping organizations achieve dramatic im provement in the efficiency of their software delivery.
