Good Programming is about Balance
This post hits the nail on its head: When good programming practices are just too good.
What struck me … is the ridiculous amount of code required to implement simple things.
I love this paragraph
We all love rules - with them, you don’t have to think much, you just apply what the smart guys think is the […]
Design vs. Process
Oren Eini has posted Tools vs. Design about the Really Simple Dialog post.
It is NOT the design that will give you the freedom to expand and build extendable and maintainable systems. It is impossible to see the future and to implement the best design, that is what YAGNI is about. It is the process that will allow us […]
Extending Test Frameworks
One really nice feature of TypeMock.NET 4.0 is the ability to extend any/all testing frameworks.
Each test framework has (or lacks) its own extension mechanism, making it hard add extension to all the frameworks. With TypeMock we can now write an new test decorator that will work for all frameworks, including vsTest and nunit, and all runner-tools including […]

The Humble Dialog (and famous musketeers)
I have read Jeremy’s Build you own CAB series (Build your own CAB Part #2 - The Humble Dialog Box). Jeremy is building the series with the help of d’Artagnan the famous Musketeer wanna-be.
Due to both his pride and an urge to ingratiate himself with those he wished to join, d’Artagnan is challenged to a […]

There is a lot of new stuff in this version. you can read about it in the Release Notes.
Some nice stuff are:
The new TypeMock Decorators.
Using these decorators will work for […]
TypeMock Case Study in Corillian
We have completed a case study of implementing TypeMock in Corillian. Corillian is the company that creates Online Banking Software, and you can imagine how important security and quality is.
Corillian is the company that Scott Hanselman is the Chief Architect. Scott has promised me that he will write an article about TypeMock as well.
We found that […]
How did we do that?!!
If you have read my previous post about the TypeMock Test Attributes you probably have noticed that the attributes are test framework agnostic!
So how did we do that?
We tried to add our attributes using implementing the hooks of each framework. But we found this way to be unstable:
mbUnit is the easiest framework to extend, it is […]
New Best Practice Pattern
In our next release TypeMock.NET will enhance the Best Practices to use Mocks and we have added 2 new ways to use mocks
Scoping the Mocks
Using Test Attributes
Scoping the Mocks
In this way the mocks are scoped using the following pattern
using (new MockScope()) // can set an optional timeout
{
// setup mocks

Problems with NUnit 2.4 Add-In Extensions
NUnit 2.4 has a new extension feature called NUnit Add Ins. With these Add-Ins it is possible to extend NUnits capabilities without hacking the NUnit code base. This is a great step forward, although it is a feat that MBUnit has been doing for quite some time now.
The best way to understand how to write an Add-In is […]
