This week's goals

Although it took me a week to jumpstart myself after the Career 2.0 talk, I'm setting a set of public goals for this week.

Each day, I need to do at least 1 of the following, and each must be done at least once by the end of the week:

• Write a new JUnit test. In particular I'd like to write my first test that uses Abbot *
• Read a new puzzler from the Java Puzzlers book I keep at my desk
• Fix a Findbugs warning

* Abbot is a framework for writing tests that exercise your GUI components directly, as if the user is using a keyboard and mouse.

For my weekly goal, I want to contribute a patch to Hudson. Even if it's something very minor or just documentation.

I'll check back at the end of the week to report on how I've done.
