The Curious Coders Chronicles recount the magical happenings in the wondrous world of programming. Bouwe, an Arch-Frontend-Mage, sparkles out beautiful React and JavaScript views, while the underground Backend-Necromancer Rich is conjuring Ruby and Rails with their little hob-goblins Hotwire with StimulusJS. With other friendly bards, they extol a variety of computer science topics and tech topics, like functional programming, code architecture, legacy code, test-driven development (TDD), pair programming, and much more.

    Social media is not always fun but as developers it's also a learning tool and a way to socialize. You can keep focused on Twitter too, even if it seems like the SM world (and sometimes your brain) is imploding. --- Coderily yours, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠bouwe.io⁠ richstone.io⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

    How to make testing more useful and fun

    In this episode, Bouwe and Rich discuss and give some guidelines on how to make testing more useful and (who knows!) more fun. As a developer, writing tests is a necessity. It automates the confidence that our code (or our app) works now, and will keep on working. And if you use TDD, it can even guide you in structuring code well. However, despite these benefits, many developers consider testing to be a necessary evil, sometimes not even useful, and definitely not fun. So let's talk about how we can make testing more useful and even perhaps fun, by deciding WHAT and HOW to test. Recources: - Book: Kent Beck - TDD by Example - Kent C.
