Quality and Code Coverage(lostechies.com)

submitted by Jacob(34) 3 years, 8 months ago

It's an age-old question: should our team's goal be 100% coverage? A valid question, but one I've never much cared about in practice. The idea is that the team, all practicing TDD, should dutifully measure and add unit tests until they reach the assumed pinnacle of unit testing: 100% coverage. read more...

Testability in .Net(theruntime.com)

submitted by adminjew(1490) 3 years, 9 months ago

Your environment can have a profound effect on how you develop software. The details of what I discuss here have zero practical meaning outside of the .Net world (though you can probably find parallels in other environments). That’s because .Net developers have access to tools that invalidate rules of software design that are fundamentally important elsewhere (before you question whether an environment can effect what is good design, consider the difference between good design in C and, say, Prolog). For .Net, the free availability of a tool like Typemock makes a major design consideration simply disappear—namely, testability. Typemock literally robs the term “testability” of meaning in .Net design considerations. That’s a freedom that should leave other developers gasping in envy. read more...

TDD or POUT(theruntime.com)

submitted by powerrush(3873) 4 years, 3 months ago

Because Unit Testing is the plain-Jane progenitor of Test Driven Development, it's kind of unfair that it doesn't have an acronym of its own. After all, it's hard to get programmer types to pay attention if they don't have some obscure jargon to bandy about. UT is too awkward, besides being a state abbreviation in the U.S., so for this post (and, if it catches on, future posts as well) I'll borrow from the telco folks and call unit testing Plain Old Unit Testing. read more...

Test Supported Development (TSD) is not Test Driven Development (TDD) (blog.troyd.net)

submitted by powerrush(3873) 4 years, 3 months ago

"Test Supported Development" (TSD) intends to characterize the creation of tests during ANY/ALL stages of development, that is, tests are not necessarily created before their respective System Under Test (SUT), but not necessarily created as an afterthought, either... read more...

Open source .NET libraries you should be already using(plentyofcode.com)

submitted by bayarsaikhan(830) 4 years, 9 months ago

As we know, there are many good, enterprise level, open source libraries, frameworks and projects implemented in Java. Most of them are being ported into different platforms like .NET and PHP, so developers are migrating to the these platforms with their familiar tools. For example, i have been using Ant, JUnit, Log4J, iText and many mores when i was developing in Java, but now i am still using Log4Net and Nunit in my current read more...
