methodology

TDD is a heavily loaded concept with a lot of history leading people to think it's not right for them or doesn't really work for "real" applications or they don't have the time or budget to write tests let alone practice TDD. Well, I hope to dispel these myths by showing how I used TDD to develop actual features front to back from client projects and how it actually allowed me to develop those features **faster** and within a time frame that wouldn't have been possible without a test-first approach. Couple this with a continuous testing tool and you can have a blazing fast development feedback loop! You'll leave excited to go write your first failing test!

Prerequisites

Examples are in C# but prior experience with dotnet or C# is not required. Some familiarity with test-driven development will be assumed.
