SLC.NET Presents: Micro API Design with Consume 1st - Llewellyn Falco

Let’s get back to basics.

One of the microskills often used in TDD is Consume First Architecture, which simply means using the fields and methods before they exist. Sounds easy? Well yes and no. Even simple lines of code can have HUGE implications on your architecture. The real skill in consume first is to be able to see, question and respond to those implications on sight.

Tonight, we are going to geek out over a single line of code. We will take it and turn it into 40-50 variations and explore how each variable impacts the resulting design.
