I’ve been proclaiming the greatness of OpenRasta to anyone unfortunate to start talking to me about web development recently. I thought it was about time that I recorded the reasons I love it so much somewhere everyone can see. OpenRasta is by no means a finished product but it has principles at its core that I value greatly and give it massive potential. (more)

“What is BDD?” is a question that’s been doing the rounds lately within the altnetgroup and devbookclub. There’s a great deal of mysticism surrounding it as if it were some exclusive members club. I’m going to slay some of the myths and tell you what BDD really is. (more)

In part one I covered how to organise your tests into the Given-When-Then style through the use of an abstract base class. In this post I’m going to show how you can manage your mocks more efficiently. Though not really a part of BDD I’ve found it very useful in clarifying the behaviour described in my tests as it reduces the amount of noise caused by the definition of variables. (more)

BDD from scratch – Build your own framework (Part 1)

BDD is a higher level of unit testing, it creates better documentation of your system by recording its intent which makes your system easier to learn for new developers and relearn for when you revisit your code further down the line. I’m going to show you how to build your own BDD testing framework on top of a vanilla unit testing framework. For my example I’m going to use NUnit but I’ve applied the same principles with MbUnit, xUnit and it should work with any other unit testing framework too. (more)
