With the clarity and precision intrinsic to the Test-Driven Development (TDD) process itself, experts James Newkirk and Alexei Vorontsov demonstrate how to implement TDD principles and practices to drive lean, efficient coding-and better design. The best way to understand TDD is to see it in action, and Newkirk and Vorontsov walk step by step through TDD and refactoring in an n-tier, .NET-connected solution. And, as members of the development team for NUnit, a leading unit-testing framework for Microsoft .NET, the authors can offer matchless insights on testing in this environment-ultimately making their expertise your own. Test first-and drive ambiguity out of the development process: Document your code with tests, rather than paper Use test lists to generate explicit requirements and completion criteria Refactor-and improve the design of existing code Alternate programmer tests with customer tests Change how you build UI code-a thin layer on top of rigorously tested code Use tests to make small, incremental changes-and minimize the debugging process Deliver software that's verifiable, reliable, and robust.

Ashley Friedlein's first book, Web Project Management: Delivering Successful Commercial Web Sites, became a bestseller and an essential reference for Web professionals developing new sites. Maintaining and Evolving Successful Commercial Web Sites addresses the realities of successful sites today, namely the notion that maintaining and evolving a site is actually a bigger commitment than launching it. Management wants to maximize returns and obtain reliable performance data, customers demand better service and insist on sites that are more advanced yet easier to use, and the Web site must increasingly be integrated with the entire business even as the amount of information it handles continues to grow. Maintaining and Evolving Successful Commercial Web Sites focuses more on process, reality, and pragmatism and less on strategic theory. It provides the reader with the knowledge, tools, approaches, and processes to manage key site maintenance and evolution projects, providing answers to the following questions: *How can I better manage changes and updates to the Web site? *How can I scale up to allow more contributions to the site and more content and still maintain quality and control? *What is content management and how do I go about it? *How do I go about personalization or community building? *What is Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and how do I actually do it online? *How do I measure and report on how well the site is doing? *How do I avoid information overload? *How do I maximize the value the site creates? The book includes case studies to demonstrate candidly how the issues discussed in the book translate into reality.
