Kata: Deciding victory in Go (acm.uva.es/p/v8/852.html) in Ruby

Schedule

: 20:15 ~ 20:30 Choosing and Discussing the Problem (as Usual)

20:30 ~ 22:00 Coding Session

The problem was solved in Ruby with Rspec in a RandoriKata style, switching pairs every 7 minutes. We thought that the problem was solved by the end of the session, but when running an integration test (with the sample input from the problem description page) it didn’t work. We had no time during the meeting to investigate further. Some decided to solve it again and present it as a PreparedKata in a future session. The code is available at groups.google.com/group/dojo_sp/files.

22:00 ~ 22:15 Retrospective

Some of the lessons learned from the session were: a lot of ruby and rspec; some people found it interesting to use pending specs as a todo list of the implementation steps we had in mind after the design discussion. Some of the things that could be improved: we discussed the importance/relevance of keeping a session recap in this wiki; some scribes said that the “template” is always the same and that not all information should be logged.
