Summary

Congratulations—you have now completed all the technical sections of this book! In this chapter, we have explored creating a sample oven. We have built this project using a Waterfall-like methodology, and we have gone through most of the SDLC sections. In this section, we have built the code and HMI for a simulated real-world project. Now, we did find bugs in the code, and you will be responsible for finding bugs and retesting them. There are no right or wrong ways to solve these bugs and test cases; you are free to use your intuition and what we have covered to fix them. If you are completely stuck, I would recommend looking at the questions for a punch list of things to fix and a few more test cases to create. Once you are done with all that, you can move on to the next chapter and explore distributed systems.
