Richard Hopton started his long-term relationship with development at the tender age of 8 when writing text adventure games on the BBC at school, followed by several years of dabbling in Amiga games and demos. He moved onto writing applications in Delphi until 2008 when C# became his language of choice, and .NET his new spiritual home.
Richard now works as a development team leader for SalesAchiever, an independent software company specialising in producing a market leading industry-specific CRM solution written in C# and WPF. |

| Test Driven Development to save, time, money and your sanity

The normal answer to these questions is many and forever, that is unless you are practicing Test Driven Development. NxtGenUG Oxford coordinator Richard Hopton walks through what it is, some guidelines to follow, how to get started implementing it in new projects as well as tips to help apply these same techniques to existing applications.

|
| INotifyPropertyChanged relies on magic strings when creating PropertyChangedEventArgs... wouldn't it be nice to remove the need for magic strings and make this more refactor friendly? Richard Hopton shows how it can be done in lightning speed.
