I help Senior Software Engineers & Tech Leads move from zero TDD experience to TDD Expert so they can develop software more safely and faster at work.
I also help Engineering Managers help their teams adopt TDD.
We help Software Engineers, Tech Leads, Software Architects, and Engineering Managers to build Maintainable Software using:
Test Driven Development (TDD)

For Companies:
If you’d like your teams to practice TDD in their Real Life Project, then book a call to see how we can help and which plan is right for you:
I spent years studying TDD by reading books from Kent Beck and Uncle Bob, studying Hexagonal Architecture from Alistair Cockburn, studying Clean Architecture from Uncle Bob, studying Microservices Architecture & Testing Microservices from Chris Richardson, and studying Acceptance Testing and Continuous Delivery from Dave Farley.
It was hard applying it all in practice. It took years of trial and error, mistakes, and challenges. I was stuck. There were so many unanswered questions.
I’m now writing the TDD Guide that I wish I had to guide me in applying TDD in real-life projects. It would been such a massive time saver. I want to share it with you so you don’t have to spend years learning TDD.
