TheServerSide Interoperability Blog

TheServerSide.Com and TheServerSide.NET communities have assembled a group of industry authorities to discuss Java and .NET interoperability. The discussion is led by software expert Ted Neward [at left]. Neward and other charter site bloggers seek to shed light on sometimes murky issues of interoperability in computing. TheServerSide Interoperability Blog invites the developer and architect communities - across platforms - to take part in the discussion. The goal is to create a compelling dialog on the best practices and architectures that relate to this sometimes heated topic.

If you generate tests from code, is that TDD?

Posted by: Jack Vaughan on February 19, 2008    0 comments    last post: February 19, 2008
