Joining the bash at CodeMash, man

As if seeing a groovy gal shave a dude’s head and hanging out with copasetic cats like my hip friends Neal Ford, Brian Sam-Bodden, and Chris Judd weren’t enough reasons to head out to Ohio for CodeMash, I’m pumped to have been invited to present two sessions and one open spaces event.

I’ll be speaking about BDD, Groovy, and a Martin Fowler inspired subject regarding the future of build languages. My BDD talk will obviously focus on how BDD can drive development more effectively than TDD and I’ll demonstrate some JBehave, RSpec, and a Groovy inspired RSpec knock-off. My Groovy session is a veritable crash course on using Groovy quickly– 101 style, baby. Lastly, the build languages openspaces session is an open discussion regarding Ant style (i.e. XML driven platforms like NAnt and MSBuild) build platforms versus more expressive platforms like Rake, Raven, and Gant, for example.

With sessions on Castle, Dojo, Grails, Rails, Scala, CI, and myriad other hip subjects, CodeMash looks like it is going to be a blast, baby– if you’re going to be there, let me know!
