Coding Is Like Cooking

TextTest progress

by | Nov 26, 2009 | Review

When I wrote this post about the public Texttest nightjob statistics, I thought they were a bit confusing and hard to understand. Geoff has now rewritten the page to contain fewer numbers, and just report the passed and failed tests from the previous night. I think it’s a bit easier to read now. He has also ditched about 500 tests that were running on Solaris, since that platform is not used often, and these tests never found bugs that weren’t also found on Linux.

The statistics are still pretty impressive though, don’t you think?

Hi – I´m Emily!

I am an independent consultant with Bache Consulting and chair of the Samman Technical Coaching Society.  As a technical coach I work with software development organizations who want to get better at the technical practices needed to be agile, including Test-Driven Development, Refactoring and Incremental Design. I live in Gothenburg, Sweden, although I am originally from the UK. I’ve written two books: “Technical Agile Coaching with the Samman method” and  “The Coding Dojo Handbook”. I teach for both O’Reilly and  Pluralsight. I’m married to Geoff Bache, creator of TextTest. I am also on Mastodon as emilybache@sw-development-is.social.

If you’d like to know a bit more about me, my work, and the talks and workshops I offer, please visit my main website: EmilyBache.com. There, you’ll find information about my background, upcoming events, and the services I provide as a technical coach and consultant. It’s a good place to start if you’re curious about how I can support your team in improving coding skills and agile practices.
