“It’s not every day you get to work with a living legend. It was a privilege and blessing to work with Mr. Jon Reid, the authority on iOS TDD. He’s exactly how you see him in his videos: friendly, calm, and knowledgeable. As a coach at Ford, he brought so much more to the table. Some experts are frozen in time once they reach a certain level. Not Mr. Reid. He brings fresh new ideas to the table maybe it’s a new pattern or a new tool. You will not have a stale moment with him! His focus is always on quality software, and he so patiently and generously imparts his experience and resources for the often-overlooked interpersonal skills needed for successful pair programming. iOS devs would be lucky to have him on their team.”
