Coming Soon: Unit Testing 101

Submitted by Bevan on Thu, 22 Oct 09 - 9:01pm

Coming up in just under a fortnight, on Wednesday November 4th, I'll be giving a presentation on the fundamentals of Unit testing.

We’ve all heard the hype – that unit testing is a good way, “the one true way” to improve the reliability and flexibility of our systems, to drive out good design, reduce coupling, increase cohesion, write less code, write better code, write faster code, decrease dependencies, write code faster, reduce our carbon footprint, plant native trees, save the whales, reduce orangutan unemployment, counter global warming and colonize the stars.

Towards Supportability

Towards Supportability is a presentation I delivered to the Wellington .NET Users Group on 5 August 2009.

In this presentation, I focus on the long term care and feeding of our systems once development is complete, covering five guidelines:

Documentation - It's not an optional part of a project. Start early, update it frequently and keep it up to date.

Rehearse - Never do something for the first time in production. Practice every process, simplify wherever possible, apply automation wherever appropriate.

Speaking at DNUG *tonight*

Update: I've posted my slides from tonights presentation - see Towards Supportability.
