Presentation: "TDD in a DbC World"

Time: Thursday 15:45 - 16:45

Location: Olympic

Abstract:

Design by Contract is slowly moving its way into the mainstream. Many wrongfully find Test Driven Development and Design by Contract to be in conflict with each other.

This session will familiarize the audience with some some basic concepts of Design by Contract and the use of a theorem prover for the static checking of contracts, discussion will then look in more depth at how we can maintain a Test First mentality in a Contract First world.
