  • Tackling real-world unit testing problems

    All the information, books and tools are out there, just pick up NUnit, and you’re good to go, right? Not exactly. Even before deciding to start unit testing, we need to sift through real experience of others; good and bad, horror stories and miracles (“This one test saved me a week of work!”). Then, we take the plunge, and realize: There’s so much to learn!

  • Cut off wrong dependencies in your .NET code

    Patrick Smacchia advises developers to treat each namespace in an application as a component, and make sure there are no dependency cycles between your components.
