Learning the Test Driven Development methodology can teach you many techniques and good habits that make you a better developer even when not following the strict TDD process.
In this talk we'll look at some of these techniques, why we use them when following the TDD process and how they still apply when not doing TDD.
For example:
Powerful IDE code completion
Encapsulation, single responsibility principle
Code Coverage (and its pitfalls)
Automated testing strategies: unit, integration, acceptance, etc...
This talk is for software engineers of all levels that are new to, curious of, or skeptical about Test Driven Development. Forget the rules of TDD and focus on the benefits and you will become a better everyday developer

When we write code, we often prioritize completing our feature over performance. However, performance may become a bottleneck, requiring additional resources and time. When we reach that point, how should we proceed?
In this session, we will explore tools that can help us identify performance problems and focus our code improvements in the most beneficial areas. Some of these tools include AsyncProfiler, JMH, JFR, and others. Expect a session with lots of demos, live coding, real-life examples, and tips and tricks to help you get started on improving your code’s performance.")
