Rare as these circumstances may be, it'll help to be prepared for them. Because it won't be as fun as you are probably imagining right now. For example, how do you automate a test for a web form that connects to a database, displays a form, then posts that data back to the database?

Développement piloté par les tests (TDD) par l'exemple

Durant cette session nous développerons un Mastermind en se basant sur la méthode TDD (Test Driven Development). Nous aurons ainsi l'occasion de répondre aux questions suivantes par la pratique :

• Quels sont les avantages de cette méthode ?
• Quels sont les bonnes pratiques et les aides mémoire qui m'aident à faire du TDD ?
• Quand mes tests doivent ils évoluer ? Comment ?

But fear not! We have studied our enemy and have altered our attack plan accordingly. No more frontal assaults. We must liberate the code in focused skirmishes from its bourgeois oppressors! Patiently, we shall advance, tightening our grip in an ever-widening net of unit tests as we hunt down bugs like the dogs they are!

So join me, brethren and sistren! With our allies, the Design Pattern Legionnaires and the Dependency Liberation Front, we will train you to take your rightful place in the movement toward a better world, where features are not divided into tasks that are meted out to the "database gal" and the "guy that does the UI because he has PhotoShop installed". Rather, they will be fully and utterly DEMOLISHED by fully armed, multi-functional, and domain-inspired programmers full of KNOWLEDGE AND FURY!!!1!!!

So you missed Folklorama again, eh? Of course, you did. It's in Winnipeg. Well, fear not, coders! In this session, we'll throw so much culture at you, you'll think you're back in high school biology.

A very important aspect of Brownfield applications is shifting the culture of your team. This starts with your project's ecosystem. Many developers in Brownfield applications don't even realize how many hoops they jump through during the course of a day to do simple things like checking in code and building the application.

In this session, we'll implement a full-fledged ecosystem for a Brownfield application. Working from the perspective of a single developer in a team, we'll cover topics such as the structure of your version control system, your check-in process, automated builds, and continuous integration. In the process, we'll talk about common pain points and common areas of friction that we can overcome with a few simple tool choices and a couple of mindset tweaks.

De .NET 2.0 à LINQ, les nouveautés des langages C# 3.0 et VB 9.0

LINQ apporte une petite révolution dans les développements d'applications .NET. La principale force de cette technologie est qu'elle permet d'accéder à plusieurs types de données grâce à un langage de requêtage unifié, et ce, directement en C# ou VB. Mais au delà de cet avantage, LINQ représente une vraie évolution des langages C# et VB.

Come discover how to create a business oriented application: that means manipulate data and build a rich UI with Silverlight!

This talk introduces many of the basic patterns in Domain-Driven Design but instead of focusing on the patterns themselves it focuses on the interactions and intentions of the patterns. In other words, we will talk about "entities" for about 30 seconds before we get down and dirty on some real life problems and handle the tough stuff like determining aggregate boundaries and the roles of application services.

Non-Functional specifications are at the core of any architecture. Learning to balance non-functional specifications with each other and align them with business needs is the most important skill an architect can possess.
