Seattle XP Practice Projects

Purpose

To practice the techniques of XP, such as pair programming, test first programming, and refactoring.

Schedule

Those folks interested in pairing meet each Thursday from 7:00pm-9:30pm at Tully's Coffee in Wallingford. There is no meeting on the second Thursday of each month. The regular Seattle Extreme Programming SIG meets instead.

It is not necessary to be present at at every meeting in order to contribute. The idea is that pairs will work on tasks that are sufficiently small that they can be completed in a single evening. By pairing with someone who has previously worked on a project, we should be able to accommodate "drop-ins" with no problem!
