Our first try at Texas Hold'em

First we noticed that this kata was a little harder tp get started with compared to the katas we've done earlier.

We realized ( a bit late ) that we needed to focus on either evaluating separated hands or ranking hands in a game. We got stuck a little in some implementation details, and for a moment we lost our vision. Next time we will have a better focus on whar problem we are trying to solve right now. This indicates that we need better test cases…

This kata really has a difference between acceptance tests and unit tests, and show us how that need to switch between acceptance tests and unit tests to maintain both drive, focus and vision in our testdriven development. Unit tests for drive and focus and acceptance test for vision.

We concluded in our retrospective that we should continue next time where we left of, and see how the code evolves from there. Perhaps in two groups (as we were 13 people and chances are that we will be even more next time.).

Until next time…
