    The goal of modeling domain concepts through objects set by OOP has for a long time been handled in insufficient ways.

  • Service-Oriented Development with Consumer-Driven Contracts

    In this article, Ian Robinson discusses how "consumer-driven contracts", in the form of "stories for services" and unit tests exchanged between service development streams, can strengthen the service-oriented development lifecycle. In contrast to contracts defined from the POV of the provider, consumer-driven contracts result from combining the demands of all known service consumers.
