Cucumber Workshop

Vermonster and Plectix are hosting a free two hour workshop focusing on everyone's favorite new tool, Cucumber.

Grab your computer and come see what all the noise is about.

We'll give you a quick intro, do some hand-holding, and leave you to some pair exercises.

Food and beverages will be on the house.

Hopefully this will serve as the first of many such events in a series I call "The Newer Yankee Workshops" for New Englanders who want to get there Ruby on.

Recent versions of Git, Ruby and Gem required. Toolbelt and flannel optional.

Prerequisites

• OSX, BSD or Linux
• Git
• Ruby 1.8.x
• Rubygems
• Need to be able to compile C libraries (Xcode, build-essentials, etc.)
