Jeff “Cheezy” Morgan & Michael “Doc” Norton | 01:30 – 02:45
Abstract
There is an epic battle brewing. This battle is poised to shake the development community to its’ very foundation. It is the battle between the Innies and the Outies. Watch, in horror, as two well known belly buttons, one from Detroit and the other from London, direct Doc and Cheezy to take two radically different approaches to test driving the same application. One will take an inside-out approach to developing the application while the other will work outside-in. To add more intrigue to this battle, Doc and Cheezy will be using _TWO DIFFERENT EDITORS_. If you’re a craftsman this is one battle you will not want to miss because the winner of this battle will define the future of software development.
