This interactive workshop will show you how to rescue code, starting with a legacy code analysis, then walking through refactoring code examples to learn how to understand, untangle and add testing to even the most challenging legacy codebases.
You'll walk away from the workshop with a deeper understanding of refactoring legacy applications and new techniques for holding on to context during development. We'll also go over adding unit tests to legacy code and adding functionality with minimal impact on existing code.

Noel Rappin is our principal software engineer — he helps us build products, leads the apprenticeship program and hosts the Tech Done Right podcast. On his own time, he’s the author of multiple books on development best practices, including Rails 5 Test Prescriptions and Take My Money: Accepting Payments on the Web.
Noel also has a Ph.D. in educational technology and user-centered design, and while we tease him about being Dr. Noel, we’re lucky to have his mind on our team — and to be able to share it with others.
