Inheriting code is something we all have to deal with, and knowing what you're getting yourself into is a big part of that initial deep dive. Just like anything else, this is a skill that needs to be practiced and perfected over time. This session will walk through some strategies to use when looking at code you didn't write, finding problem spots, as well as share some personal experiences I've had when working with other people's code. You'll leave feeling confident about digging into your next codebase, and have some new tools in your pocket for dealing with the unexpected.
