Tools and techniques for software development

- "Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code ", Martin Fowler et al., Addison-Wesley
- "Test-Driven Development: By Example", Kent Beck, Addison-Wesley
- "Version Control by Example", Eric Sink, freely available from: http://ericsink.com/vcbe/vcbe_a4_lo.pdf

The students will learn the basics of common industrial practices of software development:

- refactoring techniques, addressing in particular automatico refactoring tools available in modern IDEs

At the end of the course the student will be able to apply these practices and techniques to the development of his own programs.
