  1. Spend the arvo doing a "Bowling Scoring" TDD exercise. 3 devs doing a rotating pair, knocked it over in 90 minutes. Great team builder!
  2. @bdrhoa Thanks man. All fixed!
  3. @deanmac5 Can't stand the stuff. But, as I tell my 5 year old, gotta keep an open mind to new tastes.
  4. @ColinHarrington hehe. No, but will link to it in the show notes :-)
  5. Had a great time recording @grailspodcast interview 132 with @bobrullo talking about JS frontend tech. Also discovered best US beer to try.
  6. @rpalcolea Thanks mate! No dates for the MEAP yet, but it shouldn't be more than a month or two away.
  7. Fantastic afternoon of capturing user stories on index cards, and a great morning defining done - applying @rowanb training in full stride
  8. @rpalcolea More than Planning. It goes out for 1/3 review next month.
  9. Amazing 2 days of training with @rowanb on building and replicating agile teams. If you live in .au, your team will find him inspiring #done
  10. @swichi293 That is pretty darn cute!
  11. The journey to a truly epic feature starts with a failing test #hardestpartisgettingstarted
  12. @bobrullo Can't stand the stuff myself (but I'm the only Aussie I know that can't!). Guess I don't feel so alone now :-)
  13. @steveswinsburg Yeah sure man. Sean Sullivan is the guy to talk to, he does all the magic these days. I'm not that hands on these days.
  14. Massive Gold Star to @tednaleid for annotation-driven build-test-data for Grails 2.0 Unit Test. bitbucket.org/tednaleid/grai… #grails #champion
  15. @1stvamp Thanks mate. Now have a reason to learn about webSockets!
  16. Having some fun experiments with @HipChat 's API to make a "HipWall" a wallsized chat display for a teamroom -- blogs.bytecode.com.au/glen/2012/04/2…
  17. And if you need to know how QUnit asyncTest is supposed to be used, this link was useful for me -- net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/java… -- #morewinning
  18. Need to mock out the return values for some REST calls in your JavaScript tests? Mockjax has your back -- enterprisejquery.com/2010/07/mock-y… -- #winning
