Bob Martin on Software Craftmanship

After listening to this marvelous session, if any body related to Software development, who writes production code, does not write a unit test (i.e. automated test) for that production code, then he is not a software "professional" --> period.

Everything falls in place, like good design, good architecture when we have a set of test suite. It adds immense confidence to keep improving the software without any "fear" of breaking it. Good test suite == good software.

Craftsmanship is nothing but professional commitment of an individual to deliver "best" software to their client or the employer.

No finger-pointing, no blame-game, no wasting time how this mess got created - just get your hands dirty and start fixing.

Thanks Bob for the lesson.
