The Connected Tech Community of the GSA Technology Council
GSP Developers Guild - April 21st Meeting
The presentation will be on .NET code coverage using NCover with unit testing.
Daniel Waldschmidt the Technology Evangelist and Joe Feser the Lead Developer of NCover will present information on easy ways to understand and implement unit tests and how to use that information to write better code. NCOVER is used by over 100,000 people in 170 different countries.
Code quality is a topic that developers take personally. Poorly written code affects their livelihood, their reputation, and the time they spend on creating new solutions that people enjoy using and are willing to pay for. Taking a software product from idea to prototype to mass consumption is an amazing adrenaline- filled experience for a developer of any skill level. And yet, this process is not without issues.
Buggy code is expensive to fix and saps development momentum. Developers hate to deal with it. No good developer plans to write bad code. But very few developers plan to not write bad code. A plan is absolutely necessary to achieve maximum code quality results – and it is not too hard to do.
