eXtreme .NET
eXtreme .NET shows developers and team leaders
how to incorporate eXtreme Programming (XP)
practices with .NET-connected technologies to create
high-quality, low-cost code that will build better software.
This practical, realistic guidebook systematically covers key elements of
XP methodology in the specific context of the Microsoft .NET Framework, Visual
Studio .NET, Visual C#, and related Microsoft .NET-enabled applications. Leading
.NET and XP mentor Dr. Neil Roodyn covers planning, task definition, test-driven
development, user interfaces, refactoring, spiking, pair programming, and much
more. Dr. Neil offers field-proven advice for everything from automating builds
to integrating third-party libraries. He also incorporates valuable exercises and
presents a start-to-finish case study that shows exactly how XP and Microsoft
.NET interoperate throughout an entire development project.
