DDD Ireland

Monday, February 18, 2008

If you haven't heard, there is going to be a DDD Style event in Ireland called - wait for it - DDD Ireland.  Most of the agenda is now on the site, I will be going over to do my Red Green Refactor! session.

Abstract:

"Starting to unit test your first project is difficult, where to start? What to test? How do you even get started? In this session, Ben starts from scratch and implements an ASP.net 2.0 application using test driven development techniques. The application will have to deal with real world situations such as databases, web services and even some users! Ben will demonstrate how to design the application for testability and how unit testing and mock frameworks can make your life easier and your tests less fragile. At the end, will the tests go green?"

Should be a great weekend, can't wait! Hmm, will this class me as an international conference speaker? :)

Thanks for your comments. I had created a number of screencasts based on MbUnit, I really should sit down and sort them out.

For this talk, I don't at the moment, doesn't mean I won't in the near future. Keep an eye on the RSS.

What would you like to see/hear?

thanks for the reply Ben

I am interested in seeing anything you have on xUnit.Net, im in the process of getting my company to change from Nunit to xUnit as our testing framework

Also as a side note do you know if there is a way to integrate xUnit with nCover?

Haven't looked at XUnit and NCover - Sorry.

Hope this helps.
