Certifications Received

Laurent Bossavit certifies that Christophe Thibaut is, at a minimum, qualified to teach others the skill TDD, based on this evidence:

I attended the Coding Dojo in Paris for a couple years at the same time as Christophe and had ample opportunity to witness his sharp skill at crafting elegant code, often in languages he had recently picked up such as Haskell, then demonstrating to others how they themselves could have arrived at the same results in a few clear and simple steps; Christophe's recreation of Monads stands out as a neat example.

Antoine Contal certifies that Christophe Thibaut is, at a minimum, qualified to help others in the use of the skill automated acceptance testing, based on this evidence:

In winter-spring 2007, Christophe helped my team in setting up a FitNesse infrastructure for testing a complex clustered J2EE telecom application. He worked both with the developers to design and implement the test fixtures, and with the domain experts to grow a meaningful shared vocabulary. He helped us on test organization, test expressiveness and the use of powerful metaphors. After one year of systematic automated acceptance testing, the team has become very mature in this field. Yet, everything Christophe taught us is still as relevant as it was on the first day.

Certifications Given

Christophe Thibaut certifies that Bernard Notarianni is, at a minimum, qualified to help others in the use of the skill The McCarthy's Core Protocols, based on this evidence:

On several occasions, Bernard has made evident to me the effectiveness of and the shared vision behind the Core Protocols. He showed me, by just doing it with me, why and how to use the Investigate Protocol. Interacting with Bernard, be it on virtual or live meetings is always a remarkable example of the very effective, painless, exhilarating communication levels we can reach when we decide to be really present and focus only on better results/effort ratio.

Christophe Thibaut certifies that Antoine Contal is, at a minimum, qualified to help others in the use of the skill eXtreme Programming methodology, based on this evidence:

I have been in contact for several years with Antoine and continually heard of, and seen for myself, what results he can get with a team, starting at any given level of initial effectiveness. In several occasions, Antoine managed to bring his team members, to a greater efficiency level with the help of the XP practices. His analysis skills and his integrity can help a team to overcome the many internal and external obstacles that a deriving or seemingly failing project can have. For at least the five past years, his work has been to transform such projects into successes.
