“You don’t need static type checking if you have 100% unit test coverage.”

  • Thanks to nCrafts team for giving me space and time to talk about things I love amongst so many people I admire
  • This draws on the past 2 years’ experience developing a peer-to-peer platform at Capital Match based on those techniques (see http://www.capital-match.com)

A Simple Event Sourced Service from Scratch

  • A counter service:
    • Initial value is 0
    • Can increment counter with a positive value
    • Can decrement counter with a positive value
    • Can query state of the counter
    • Counter’s value can not go below 0 or above 100

What’s been demoed

  • TDD w/ Property Based Testing
  • Purely functional model event sourced model
  • Services defined from composable effectful building blocks
  • Statically typed REST API w/ Servant (http://haskell-servant.github.io/)
  • Use the REPL, Luke!
