Tailor-made Clean Code und Clean Unit Test practice courses for your team
(company exclusive trainings from 3 employees)
Clean Code and Clean Unit Test - The royal class of programming! This training is only suitable for:
This is exactly where we come in! It is definitely worthwhile to learn the proven rules and best practices for producing "clean code and clean unit tests" in a hands-on way and to apply the acquired knowledge in ongoing projects.
Why invest in this training?
The good news is that you don't have to massively change your programming habits or enter a whole new world. Clean Code is comparable to moving from apartment A to apartment B:
After step 3, the move is theoretically complete. We have arrived at apartment B and have our stuff there. We could leave all the moving boxes on the floor and get everything we need from the moving boxes, use it, and put it back in the moving boxes. Similarly, after step 3 in software development, our feature or system is also finished. We have programmed something that works and does what it is supposed to do.
However, when moving, we humans take a fourth and crucial step:
In other words, develop steps 1 through step 3 as before. However, you should learn step 4 in a practical way and integrate it immediately if you and your team want to produce above-average code every day. The good news is that any team can learn and immediately integrate Clean Code into their day-to-day work.
Why is the fourth step (Clean Code) missing in software development for over 80% of software developers?
We can even answer this question from our experience at elite universities and from our numerous trainings. Most developers don't even know how to do it. They have not learned the best practices for writing clean code. This is because such techniques are not taught in a practical way at university or college, nor in any computer science training. If at all, it is done through a lot of theory with little reference to practice. A second reason is that many developers have to meet one deadline after another and often have no time left for cleaning up. This saves time in the short term, but in the medium and long term it proves to be a strategic mistake as soon as problems arise. This is because 80% of the costs in software development arise later, for example when software errors and bugs are fixed or when the time-consuming and tedious adaptation of code and design for new features takes place.
A team that masters clean code is clearly at an advantage in the long run!
Briefly, any topic area can be covered in more depth if desired. Your needs have priority. You decide what your team needs. We create the concept.
Clean Code has three pillars:
We don't preach theory, we solve problems! Get the maximum knowledge for your team. Compile the topics according to your previous knowledge and needs, depending on the project. Because individual learning brings the desired success! Topics you click here will be automatically referred to us as soon as you send a request form!
You will find the topics "Clean Code and Clean Unit Test" summarized under the topics "Effective Programming: Clean Code and Clean Unit Test" for the respective language. You can even combine these topics with other focal points if you wish!
Depending on the language, an introduction to the corresponding unit test and mocking framework is introduced. For example, JUnit 5 for Java, Pytst for Python, NUnit for C#, Catch2 for C++, and Jasmine/Jest and Mocha for JavaScript.
There are a total of 72 classic refactoring patterns that are largely language-independent.
These modules cover techniques that help make teamwork more productive and improve the quality of the resulting software.
The Working effectively as a team module includes the following focus areas:
We offer different course formats: 3-day programs, 4-week intensive programs, and online training videos.
In 3 days (8 hours/day) you will be guided to the next level by an expert: Participate on-site at the Coding Academy Munich or online from anywhere in the world. With a practical exam for the certificate.
3-Day Online Course
The course takes place online. All you need is a computer with internet access. For some modules it is necessary to install specific Python packages or additional software. We will clarify details when compiling the course content. You will get access to the material on the first day of the course at the latest.
3-Days on-site at the Coding Academy
The course takes place in our modern and well-equipped training rooms. We provide each participant with a modern laptop free of charge during the training. Drinks are provided by the Coding Academy. Access to the material will be provided on the first day of the course at the latest.
3-days on your premises
If you wish, one of our experts will hold the course at your premises. Then you provide the technology, e.g. computers with the software needed for the course. With this format, there are additional costs for travel and accommodation.
The videos pick up the topics from the live trainings and show real programming examples from practice.
We also offer the courses as online-only training videos. You have access at any time and can access the modules at your pace. This way, you can benefit from our high-quality learning videos at a very affordable price. In our online forum you can discuss with other participants and get help from our Teaching Assistants in case of problems.
Contact us about the availability of the course you want.
In 4 weeks to the next level: You get 2-3 hours of teaching and video material on Mondays and take part in our online live training for 2 hours on Fridays. Here, all open questions can be discussed and clarified with the trainer. With a practical exam for the certificate.
This is a combination of online and offline training, sometimes referred to as "blended learning".
Schedule
Great extra: Our online forum. All course participants can get help from our teaching assistants at any time.
The content that is taught is the same whether you take the course online, on-site, in a 4-week program, or as a training video. We have had very good experiences with all formats.
Online or on-site training?
The online and on-site training courses teach the material in a compact, intensive form. You can reserve a block of time that is 100% dedicated to learning, which typically has a positive effect on the learning curve.
On-site trainings are often a little easier to discuss in a group than online trainings, but online trainings eliminate the time spent traveling to the training and allow you to work in your familiar environment.
4-week program and training videos?
With the 4-week program and video-only courses, learning is spread out over a longer period of time. This allows you to flexibly divide your time, learn in a more relaxed way and offers more opportunities to try out the concepts you have learned in practice.
Another advantage of these formats is that the team does not have to be completely removed from project work for several days. In addition, each participant can complete the video learning units and practice exercises at their own pace and does not have to wait for other participants or complete the assignments under time pressure.
In the 4-week program, you are responsible for completing the designated learning units and exercises each week to stay on track with the material.
Of course, as a participant in a Clean Code and Unit Test course you will receive a certificate. The prerequisite for this is the complete participation in all course units and programming tasks and the successful programming of a small final project. However, after an intensive Clean Code and Unit Test course, this will certainly give you more pleasure than stress.
We are very happy to take time for you. Use our contact form for a written contact. Our team will respond quickly and within 24 hours at the latest. In case of technical questions and to clarify the focal points, which are target-oriented for your team, please use the possibility of a non-binding consultation appointment.
