Introduction
So, this is absolutely incredible. Because we have decided to extract our feature’s logic into a proper observable object, we instantly get the ability to write tests. And these tests are covering very complicated logic, that we actually got wrong at first, and is even proving how focus moves around the screen.
So, while using a plain binding in the EditStandupView
was the easiest way to get started with the feature, it definitely is not the most future proof way to structure things. Using bindings directly in the view means that all of your feature’s logic is going to have to be in the view. It will be very difficult to get test coverage on that logic, so as the feature gets more complex you may want to upgrade the binding to a proper model.
And with that the EditStandupView
is feature complete and fully tested. It’s time to move onto the next piece of functionality in the application: the ability to drill down to a detail view so that you can make edits to an existing meeting.
Let’s quickly remind ourselves what that looked like over in Apple’s Scrumdinger application, and then see what it takes to rebuild.

Standups App
Brandon Williams & Stephen CelisA rebuild of Apple’s “Scrumdinger” application that demosntrates how to build a complex, real world application that deals with many forms of navigation (e.g., sheets, drill-downs, alerts), many side effects (timers, speech recognizer, data persistence), and do so in a way that is testable and modular.
