Refactoring Superpowers: Make Your C++ IDE Do Your Work, Faster and More Safely
summary
Converts a C# Sudoku kata into C++, uses Tangible for initial translation and ApprovalTests plus Catch for verification, and gets 1200 lines with passing tests; extracts parameters and methods with ReSharper C++, compares with CLion slow on mac and Visual Assist (which fails this extract). Builds a Grid abstraction, writes a targeted solve test using ten seeded runs to reach full coverage, and iterates with small commits so each automated refactoring compiles, tests green, and leaves clearer, safer code.
