Morning chit chat

and coffee...

You will never believe what the new guy did!

Don't you have code review?

Yes, but...

Maybe there's a deeper problem...

The new guy is always a pain in the a**!

Except sometimes it's me...

And sometimes it's you

account.sendTransaction("John Doe", Date.now(), 100);

account.sendTransaction(100, Date.now(), "John Doe");

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

account.sendTransaction();

What needs
special attention
will eventually fail

What needs

reveals a flaw in conception

Compilation

Where do we find bugs?

Code review

CI/CD

Compilation Error == Impossible Error

        console.log(user.name);
    }

});

    // ...

with strictNullChecks


fetchUser(userId).then(user => {
    console.log(user.name); // Compilation Error!
});

export class Account {

    sendTransaction(recipient: string, 
                    amount: number, 
                    date: number): string {
        // ...
    };
}

account.sendTransaction("John Doe", Date.now(), 100);

account.sendTransaction(100, Date.now(), "John Doe");

account.sendTransaction();

export class Account {

Primitive Obsession

Only checked by the IDE in Java

sendEmail(new Email("wrongEmail.com"), 
          new Subject("Hello!"), 
          new Content(content));

private void sendEmail(Email email,     
                       Subject subject, 
                       Content content) {
    if(email.isValid()) {
        // ...
    }
}

sendEmail(new Email("wrongEmail.com"), 
          new Subject("Hello!"),

        if (!isValid(emailString) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException();
        }
        // ...
    }
}

An Email argument is
always a valid email!

sendEmail(new Email("wrongEmail.com"), 
          new Subject("Hello!"), 
          new Content(content));

Still catched at runtime...

class Email {
    public Email(String emailString) 
            throws InvalidEmailException {
        // ...
    }
}

class InvalidEmailException extends Exception {}

Better

try {
    Email email = new Email("wrongEmail.com");
} catch (InvalidEmailException e) {
    // Fallback
}

class Email {
    private Email(String emailString) {}
    static Either<Reason, Email> fromString(String email) {}
}

Even Better

Either<Reason, Email>

Reason

Email

Left

Right

Either<Reason, Email> email = Email.fromString(wrongEmail);

email.map(email -> sendEmail(email, subject, content));

class Email {
    static Either<Reason, Email> fromString(String email) {
        if (!isValid(email) {
            return Either.left(BAD_EMAIL);
        }

Study Case 1: Payment

class Payment {

Card(Payment) = Card(string) * Card(string)

Study Case 1: Payment

class Payment {
    private method: Method;

    private constructor(m: Method, s: CardState | CashState) {};

Dependent types

Study Case 4: Vector

interface UserRepository {

    private User findUserById(String id);
}

interface UserRepository {

    private Optional<User> findUserById(String id);
}

Optional<User>

User

∅

connection.connect(function() {
  connection.query(myQuery, callback);
});

connection.query(myQuery, callback);
connection.connect(otherCallback);

Temporal coupling

MySQL connector in Node.js

connector.connect(function(connection) {
  connection.query(myQuery, callback);
});

Temporal coupling

const passwordInput = new PasswordInput();

// ...

if (passwordInput.isValid()) {
  saveForm(passwordInput);
}

type Unvalidated = {_type: "Unvalidated"};
type Validated = {_type: "Validated"};

class PasswordInput<T> {
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
}

  static create(): PasswordInput<Unvalidated> {
    return new PasswordInput();
  }

  validate(): Error | PasswordInput<Validated> {
    // ...
  }

saveForm(input: PasswordInput<Validated>) {
  // ...
}

Phantom type

Make your code more explicit to avoid errors

Implicit is error-prone

upload:
  destinationPath: ./upload/images
  maxFileSize: 1024

upload:
  destinationPath: ./upload/images/
  maxFileSizeInMo: 1024

Paths.get(uploadPath, fileName);

Encapsulation

User user = new User();
user.setId(userId);
user.setName("Jordane");
user.setPicture(picture);

User user = new User(userId, name);
user.setPicture(picture);

class UserService {
    @Autowired
    private UserRepository userRepository;

    public UserService() {
        // ...
    }
}

class UserService {
    @Autowired
    public UserService(UserRepository userRepository) {
        // ...
    }
}

Honesty

getName : User -> String
getName user = 
    user.name

    user.password = 'p0wn3d';

function getName(user: User) {




    return user.name;
}

    sendLoveLetterToMyEx();


getMessage : User -> String
getMessage myUser = 
    "Hello " ++ (getName myUser)

admin@server /project/build:

Why did the error occur?
Can I make it impossible?
If not, can I catch it earlier?
Can I make it more difficult to happen?

Technical ? Human ?

Fail loudly (Option, Either, Exception)

Refactoring, focus on types

Feedback cycle, unit tests

Final thoughts

Get an IDE / linter
Reduce your domain (ADT)
Kill null and undefined

I call it my billion-dollar mistake. It was the invention of the null reference in 1965. [...] This has led to innumerable errors, vulnerabilities, and system crashes [...]

Make tests
Be honest – Modelize uncertainty

When you start to modelize your uncertainty, you quickly realize it's everywhere in your codebases
