Research

Often the hard part is not finding the answer, but asking the right question.

Interests

Software engineering methodology

How intent becomes working software, and which practices hold up when they are examined rather than assumed.

Task

Scenario

Test

Code

Each task traced to the scenario that describes it, the test that runs it, and the code it reaches. Point at any of them to follow the chain.

Executable specifications

Specifications that people can read, that run as tests, and that yield formal models from the same source.

    Edit the step to see how Cucumber reads it.

    Discrete mathematics

    Graph theory and finite-state machines, the structures underneath processes, workflows, and programs.

    Current state: Open

    A finite-state machine: every event is allowed in some states and not others.
