Test-Driven Development Using Mock Objects
Are you tired of writing bloated, fragile code that you can't maintain? Are you tired of spinning your wheels in a circle not sure what the next step in your product should be? Then come hear Jeremy Jarrell from Matrix Solutions speak to the .NET User Group about Test Driven Development (TDD), one of the fastest growing development techniques in the software industry today. An extremely powerful design tool, TDD can help you quickly determine the key features that your product will require, and will help you implement them in the fastest and simplest way possible. You'll develop only the code that you need, when you need it. So if you're ready to take your development skills to the next level, then come and learn how TDD can help you deliver the product that you've always wanted. |
