Focusing on this aspect of testing brings about Acceptance Testing and products like Selenium & Fitness. Why Write Unit Tests? I've made a small video to go with this post Approval Tests have allowed us to focus on the parts of testing at a much higher level of abstraction. Things that had been too hard to see have become visible. The benefits of Automated Tests are one of the areas that we can now more clearly appreciate. First, there is Specifications. Everyone knows that good requirements help programmers to produce better software. Fast Feedback. When would you like to know that? - I know exactly what I want!
Agile has checkpoints that allow for quick feedback; while the product is under development, customers can see features as soon as they are completed, giving them an opportunity to accept it or to suggest changes. Well.sometimes When creating software, customers don't usually know exactly what they want at the beginning. Approvals give developers the same opportunity. As a developer, you may not know exactly what you want. The more insight you can get from a result, the more you understand where you want the design to go. That tends to lead us to a more natural flow of coding. %>

| The Latest from DevelopMentor | MORE | | Agile Clinic: Dear Allan, we have a little problem with Agile. Could it be that the Product Owners are not sufficiently flexible in what they are asking for and are therefore setting the team up to fail each sprint? 'Consider this blog an Agile Clinic. On Friday an e-mail dropped into my mailbox asking if I could help. The sender has graciously agreed to let me share the mail and my advice with you, all anonymously of course… The sender is new to the team, new to the company, they are developing a custom web app for a client, i.e. they are an ESP or consultancy. the Developers work in sprints, estimating tasks in JIRA as they go. And yo have Jira? Allan Kelly's Blog - Sunday, April 28, 2013 A Roundup of MongoDB Management Tools The data is a great asset when optimizing applications during development and potentially invaluable when diagnosing production issues. 'I’ve been working with MongoDB for a long time now. Back in the early days, there really were no management tools analogous to RDBMS tools (e.g. SQL Server Management Studio ). Since then, things have changed significantly. It’s time to look around and see what management / monitoring tooling is around these days for MongoDB. The news is good. There are many different options to choose depending on your platform and use-cases. link]. link]. Michael C. Kennedy's Weblog - Monday, April 22, 2013 Requirements and Specifications 'As I was saying in my last blog, I’m preparing for a talk at Skills Matter entitled: “Business Analyst, Product Manager, Product Owner, Spy!” So now I turned to a standard textbook on requirements: Discovering Requirements: How to Specify Products and Services by Alexander and Beus-Dukis. which I should just have entitled it “Requirements: Whose job are they anyway?” and so I’ve been giving a lot of thought to requirements. Bear with me, I’ll come back to this point at the end.) So I turned to my bookshelves…. turned to the index and…. nothing. Which bring us back to BDD. Allan Kelly's Blog - Monday, April 15, 2013 | -
| The Best from DevelopMentor | MORE | - Product Management an open secret, a differenciator
At the Skills Matter Agile Lean Kanban exchange the other week someone - sorry I missed you name - told me about a report from the BBC on Product Management. It turns out the report is from a branch of the BBC I didn’t know about, “BBC Academy” and it entitled “The State of Product Management 2010.” Its well worth reading if you have an interest in Product Management or the UK software development scene. Although I’ve not blogged about it for a while Product Management is one of my passions. In Silicon Valley there is a well developed role called the Product Manager. Allan Kelly's Blog - Tuesday, December 14, 2010 - Minimal Viable Team to create a Minimally Viable Product
Despite being a bit of a mouthful to say “Minimal Viable Product” and the even more difficult to say “Minimally Marketable Feature” (also known as a “Quantum of Value” or “Business Value Increment”) are very useful concepts. What makes gives them killer power is that they speak to a secret belief held by many people (not just managers) that teams gold-plate development and create products with more than is needed. The same applies to product development: saying Yes to a feature is easy, saying No is hard, but unless you say No a lot more than Yes you won’t have a MVP. Allan Kelly's Blog - Monday, October 8, 2012 - Productivity Power Tools 2012 – February 2012
A new update to Productivity Power Tools 2012! This update includes a couple of bug fixes including a crashing bug in the Custom Document Tab Well on debug. Download now! Link: [link].

12: public Product Get( int id). Loading the products with the original URL returns exactly the same result as before. This request “ [link] ” returns only product 11 to 15 ordered by the product name. Having the ASP.NET Web API as a REST service returning data is kind of nice but to be efficient on the wire we don’t want to return more data that required only to discard it in the client. As we have seen in a previous post just returning a collection data was real easy. As it turns out changing the service so the client can filter data is almost just as easy. 13: {. The Problem Solver - Wednesday, March 21, 2012 - EF4 compared to NHibernate
On the other side, NH is a much a more mature ORM product than EF and has better batching capabilities. It is also more extensible, especially as an open-source product. The end result will be greater parity between the two products going forward, making the choice even more challenging and determined mostly by philosophical and strategic factors. Last week while teaching my new LINQ and Entity Framework course I got a question asking me to compare EF4 with NHibernate. Not having worked extensively with NHibernate, I wasn’t in a position to address the question. Tony and Zuzana's World - Wednesday, January 13, 2010 %>
