Building Dependable code with Dependency Injection – Slides & Source

02 Sep

Here are my slides and the source code to the TDD & DI talk I gave at CodeCamp Auckland 2008. My intent with the talk was to explain how TDD can be really good, and how DI can make TDD easier.

If you weren’t at my talk and have any questions – I’m in the market for more comments.

I’ve got one more link to add, these podcasts were what actually inspired my subject: http://channel9.msdn.com/shows/ARCast+with+Ron+Jacobs/ARCastnet-Presenter-First-Pattern-Part-1/

Here is my source code (perfectly commented), and here are my slides

Stay tuned for a bigger (50 line) do-it-yourself DI container that would be useful in production.

Best Codecamp Evar

31 Aug

Wow – just attended the best codecamp ever. It’s gotten me so excited about silverlight, wpf and asp mvc. Jonas, who’s girlfriend is a silverlight designer, has some really great insights into how to do some funky silverlight stuff, go read his blog. I was also pretty impressed by Scott’s speaking style – he was a LOT funnier than I expected.

The fact that I got to speak wasn’t what made the day so great for me. No – it was the content of the other speakers and having such interesting conversations with everyone else who came. The people that turn up to these community things are the ones who really care about what they do.

My slides & source will go up here very soon I promise! I just have one thing to ask you guys: If you came to my talk, I’d love to get some feedback about how my presentation went. One of my colleagues told me I need to walk around a lot more – so thats some good advice for me to take on board. But I want to grow up to be a fantastic presenter one day, so please, leave me a comment or send me an email. All criticism will be gratefully, gracefully received. Unless you weren’t actually there.
