Test-Driven Development in Microsoft .NET (Microsoft Professional) by James W. Newkirk and Alexei A. Vorontsov

http://www.amazon.com/Test-Driven-Development-Microsoft-NET-Professional/dp/0735619484


The title says it all, this is a book about TDD in .NET Development. I advise you to read this book and Test Driven Development: By Example (Addison-Wesley Signature Series) by Kent Beck. Souce code snippets are in C# and the reference is .NET Development Framework v.1.1.This book is a great reference for TDD in .NET Development and there are a lot of examples, all examples are tested with NUnit.

It begins with a simple example about Stack class. Here the authors illustrate the 2 rules of TDD clearly in details:

1.Never write a single line of code unless you have a failing automated test

2.Eliminate duplication

The authors talk about refactoring and they refer to Beck and Fowler (Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code).

In the next chapters you can find more interesting examples about ADO.NET and ASP.NET, particularly regarding Datasets and WebServices.

The most interesting part of the book from my point of view is about "Customer Tests". There are some examples with FIT that show how to create customer functional tests.If you are lucky (I am not...:-((( ) you can try this technique with your customer IT department (or by yourself...:-)) ) and create complete functional tests for control your application execution flow.

Last part concerns about Transactions testing, refactoring Service Layer and an example of TDD with a Web GUI. All code snippets are really useful and you can understand how to create more efficient software in practice.


Pro:If you want to develop with with support of TDD in MS .NET this is the right resource, really good written and code snippets are from some real contexts. This book should be in your collection...

Contro:This book is based on .NET Development 1.1 and some pieces of information about ADO.NET, ASP.NET and Framework are obsolete for .NET Development 2.0, but it is not so important because the aim of the book is learnig TDD. I think that if you can apply for informations or better read the books of Beck and Fowler (I didnt again with Refactoring...:-(( ) which are cited by the authors so you will appreciate more this work.The Beck book's is the best-seller about TDD so if you can read it you will find the real book about TDD.
