  I'll be attending the AltNetConf . Convenient for me that it's in Austin, TX. It's an open space conference, and I consider it the founding conference of a conversation that is "Alt.Net". I'll be proposing the topic: What are...

• Baking requirements - Developing with raw ingredients is waste

  I have learned an important lesson from my combined experiences at all the places I've worked. That is: raw requirements cause waste. A term I've used (and have heard others use) is that requirements are either "baked" or "not baked"...

• Integration testing demonstrated - level 200

  In this post, I'll talk about and demonstrate integration testing. If you are just starting out with integration testing, you want to test small before you test big.

• StructureMap 1.0 released - Don't create a loosely coupled system without it - level 200

  StructureMap is very easy to use, but it makes creating loosely coupled OO systems a breeze (ok, that's exaggerating. it still requires engineering). I use it in every project I work on, and I like it better than Spring.Net . Spring needs Xml configuration...
