Monday was the first technical meeting of ABE.pm, and I think it went well. I did a presentation on automated testing and test-driven development, largely stolen from Schwern, Andy, and chromatic. I think it lost momentum toward the end, which is a shame, because that's where I stuck the "Five things to do..." slides from Andy's testing talk. I think the whole presentation could use a second draft.
Anyway, despite my own feelings, I got some very nice feedback, some of which included my target response, "Now I feel like I should start writing tests." So, I'm happy.
After the slides we just talked for a while, and then we went down to McGrady's for a couple beers. I had some Boddingtons and some wings, and both were good.
