Senior Developer, AWH
Actions
I've been a professional programmer since 1995, and a .NET developer from version 1.0. I'm currently a Senior Consultant with AWH in Dublin, concentrating on C#, ASP.Net MVC, and REST API solutions, with a heavy focus on testing, testability, and overall coding craftsmanship.
Context is Important
Are your test suites brittle and hard to maintain? Does making the simplest of changes trigger an avalanche of red? Then maybe it's time to start treating your test contexts like the first-class code that they are. Test contexts that are easy to read and understand are the key to maintainable test suites. Stop reinventing the universe for each and every test, and instead, factor it out into shared, reusable test data generators using helpers like the Object Mother and Builder patterns. I'll even show you how to automatically generate the generators so you can get back to working on the interesting stuff.
Works well with others... from a distance
In early 2020, our industry flipped from being largely on-site to fully remote, but sometimes there's just no substitute for live collaboration. Learn how to pair up with your team and work together on code no matter where you are using “Live Sharing” in Visual Studio, VS Code, or even through a zero-installation, disposable online editor.
