Tonight was the second Brisbane Alt.Net meeting. Attendance was WAY down. I guess some people came along last time and discovered it was not for them. :)
We started with a quick look at Sharp Architecture. Since no one has used it that didn't go very far.
Next was our usual, ongoing "discussion' about the merit of various TDD features. Mocking was a particularly contentious technique. When should you mock and when should you stub? This was in conjunction with a lilttle demo I did introducing BDD. I worked through the typical login scenario in the BDD fashion. These are stories we implemented:
As a user
I want to be able to authenticate
so that I can access the applications functionality
As an evil hacker
I want to get rejected by the authentication process
So that I don't spoil it for everyone else
As a user with a "special case" login (not a user in the database)
I want to be able to authenticate
so that I can access the applications functionality
Here is the zip of the solution we ended up with.
Finally we decided that we need to get a bit more organised and publish an agenda in advance of each meeting.
