Some interesting new books on development

Posted by Jeremy Miller on June 3, 2007

I had to move my collection of software books to a different bookcase today.  I realized that I hadn’t read a new book on software development in quite some time (I don’t count books like WinForms 2.0 or Learn WCF in 24 days!).  Lo and behold, I see two new releases from Addison Wesley’s Martin Fowler signature series.

 

The first is xUnit Test Patterns: Refactoring Test Code by Gerard Meszaros.  I got the opportunity to be one of the technical reviewers for this last year.  I’d highly recommend this for anyone that writes automated tests at any level.

 

The second, via the Disco Blog, is Continuous Integration: Improving Software Quality and Reducing Risk (forthcoming soon).  Judging by the blurb, this looks like something I’m going to check out.
