Schwern is Mad!
Wednesday, September 18th, 2002Went to hear Schwern talk on Advanced Testing. Schwern arrived at the conference with only minutes to spare and had to set his machine up whilst the audience watched. Taking the whole audience interaction thing to extreme he asked members of the audience to present him with problems they had faced when testing with Perl. Only a mad man would write Perl code samples at a conference full of pedantic Perl geeks!
He also got Marty and Greg to give short presentations on Mock::Apache and Mock::Object. Marty also spoke briefly on Test First Programming. The things Marty will do for an invite to the speaker’s dinner!
