• The value of Pair Programming
  
  Of course, another value of the pairing overlap comes from just looking at the mistakes. Gary Filer made an interesting comment to me the other day; “I use to think that the value of pair programming was the shared brain” “But after seeing you pair for the last week, I realized that the shared part is actually the waste. But pairing reduces the cost of mistakes constantly. What Gary was seeing was the countless times Jason or I would say “Let’s do.” only to have the other one say, “No, your forgetting about.” or “No, there's a better way.”. Finding dead code and deleting it.

• Testing Difficult Code
  
  Of course, to do that you need a nice seam that passes in the default dependency. I recently did 3 videos in my ‘ Using ApprovalTests in.Net’ series that deal with how to test difficult code. These video actually have very little to do with either.Net or ApprovalTests, but they are common issues you run into when unit testing. Seams Testing difficult Code comes down to 2 things: Can I call the Method? Will the Method run to completion? And there are 2 techniques I use to deal with these, that individually are useful, but together are amazing. Here’s the video: The Peel 2. The Slice 3.

• Agile: Where's the evidence?
  
  If you want something a little more grounded there was a recent Forrester report (sorry, I can’t afford the full report) which said: “Agile enables early detection of issues and mid-course corrections because it delivers artefacts much sooner and more often. A few weeks ago I was presenting at the BCS SIGIST conference - another outing for my popular Objective Agility presentation. Someone in the audience asked: “Where is the evidence that Agile works?” My response was in two parts. It is rarely a question aimed at a rational decision. to which the answer is certainly No. Scrum? Finance?

• Secure WCF REST Services with a Custom UserNamePasswordValidator
  
  Of course, you’ll want to employ a more sophisticated technique, such as hashing the password to compare against entries in a database table.). Download the code for this blog post here. When securing WCF services you’re faced with a choice: Message versus Transport security. Unless you need to conceal messages from an intermediary, your best bet is to stick with transport security and use SSL to secure messages traveling over HTTP. This means you can eschew the complexity and overhead of message-based security in favor of the simpler and leaner model of transport-based security. Enjoy.

• Using SignalR for real time data updates
  
  Of course we can add some code to actively check for changes to the data but usually there will be no change so that results in a lot of useless network traffic. In a previous post I showed how easy it is to create a simple chat application using SignalR. And chatting on the internet might be popular but as it turns out there are rather a lot of applications that need to do more than just chat. As it is there are a lot more CRUD style applications, where users edit data usually stored in a database for some purpose, than chat applications. And that will remain so until reloads the data.

• Using Reporters in Approval Tests
  
  Because of this, you might want to decorate your class or method with [UseReporter( typeof (FileLauncherReporter))] Comparing Results Of course, not only do ApprovalTests Reporters tell you the results, but also the results can help you determine what has changed since they last passed. Today I pushed new versions of ApprovalTests for both C# and Java to SourceForge. Updates include new capabilities around the Reporters feature set for ApprovalTests. These enhancements were driven by feature requests from Peik Aschan(@peikas). Why Use Reporters? png, *.html, html, *.mp3, DiffReporter.cs

• Flowcharts in Workflow 4 and the Switch activity
  
  Of course the FlowSwitch should just to a ToString() on the expression result , anything else would be pointless as any comparison fails. Flowcharts are a nice addition to Windows Workflow Foundation 4. They allow for a lot of pretty complex behavior that is hard to do in a sequential workflow. In WF 3 we used to model these complex behaviors as state machine workflows. That worked but they weren't really state machines or event driven and things could get a bit tricky. No it is just another activity to drop in a workflow. guess you get the picture. So far so good. Next (5). Enjoy!
