Kent Beck
Kent Beck Biography
Kent Beck is a software engineer and the creator of extreme programming and one of the 17 original signatories of the Agile Manifesto, the founding document for agile software development. Extreme and Agile methods are closely associated with Test-Driven Development (TDD), of which Beck is perhaps the leading proponent.
Extreme programming is a software development methodology that eschews rigid formal specification for a collaborative and iterative design process.
Beck pioneered software design patterns, as well as the commercial application of Smalltalk. He wrote the SUnit unit testing framework for Smalltalk, which spawned the xUnit series of frameworks, notably JUnit for Java, which Beck wrote with Erich Gamma. Beck popularized CRC cards with Ward Cunningham, the inventor of the wiki.
In addition, Kent is the author of numerous books on the topic of programming, including Implementation Patterns and Extreme Programming Explained: Embrace Change.
He lives in San Francisco, California and worked at social media company Facebook.
