About
Ted M. Young (he/him) is a Java trainer, coding coach, speaker, and author. He’s been in software development for over 30 years, teaching and coding in Java since the 1.0 beta, and doing eXtreme Programming since 2000.
Ted has worked for eBay, Google, Apple, and Guidewire Software. He is now an independent educator, helping those new to the industry and experienced folks increase their joy in coding by making code more testable.
Ted’s favorite techniques are test-driven development, refactoring, domain-driven design, and testable architectures, such as Hexagonal Architecture.
