This was a great nugget. More please.
Robert Minchin
tempo was just right , best of all was how to write the code from the tests, always been a struggle in the past. Liked the intro to Mock objects. never enough info on the wiki!
James Coulter
Another good session from NxtGen. Great to see Ami doing his first nugget. Ben Hall has clearly come on in leaps and bounds since joining RedGate and this showed through in his talk. Would have been a 9 but for the shortage of pizza. Perhaps write a test to calculate the number of slices per person.
Neal O'nions
Ben obviously knows his stuff and presented in a confident and clear way, he was obviously well prepared.
Stuart Wells
Excelent presenter - good style and content, however whilst it covered the 'how' it didn't really cover the 'why'. I would have liked to have seen costs (both time and finance) of using it/not using it...I suspect using it adds time and money to initial delivery, but saves time and money in subsequent deliveries...but I have yet to meet a client prepared to pay more up front for the promise of savings later!!

Event Breakdown
Ben Hall Red, Green, Refactor!
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?
