Abstract :
We teach a class on programmer testing with a primary focus on test driven development (TDD) as part of the software engineering curriculum at the Florida Institute of Technology. As of this writing, the course has been offered 3 times. Each session contained a mixture of undergraduate and graduate students. This paper discusses the evolution of the course, our lessons learned and plans for enhancing the course in the future.
