Translating routes (ASP.NET MVC and Webforms) (blog.maartenballiauw.be)

published 12 days, 11 hours ago, submitted by maartenba(5585) 14 days, 18 hours ago

Well, I’m slapping myself :) read more...

Somewhere along the line the definition of TDD has gotten lost and it is time to set the record straight; just because you write unit tests does not mean you practice TDD. read more...
