Title	Test Driven Development using FLOW3
Authors	Karsten Dambekalns
Abstract	It is possible to develop code by starting to implement feature requests, yes. But this rarely leads to "clean code that works." It can, but if you are among the vast majority of developers, you must be extremely lucky to succeed with an approach like that. It is also possible to write tests for feature requests before the implementation is even started. This approach, called Test Driven Development (TDD), is much more likely to lead to such clean, working code through a small set of simple rules. You may think this sounds funny, interesting, stupid or smart. Whatever you think, you should attend of you want to develop working code of higher quality faster. During the session you will learn what TDD is about (and what not) and see how it is actually applied when coding an application.

Authors Description	Karsten Dambekalns, born in 1977, learnt the basics of web technology the hard way, by looking at other website's HTML source code, after having finally switched to Linux from OS/2 and Windows. All this happened after having learnt BASIC and Assembler on a good old Commodore C128... Karsten discovered TYPO3 in 2002 and got caught by it's immense possibilities. Having worked with TYPO3 for over a year Karsten joined the TYPO3 snowboard conference in 2004, only to use the newly knit web of contacts to become the driving force behind the actual implementation of a long planned database abstraction layer for TYPO3. Now he is part of the TYPO3 5.0 development team and an active member of the TYPO3 Association. Karsten mostly lives in Luebeck, Germany with his wife Liga, two kids and a nameless espresso machine.
