There's no arguing the value of unit tests these days but the real juicy action is often in the integration of two or more components. In this session we'll take a look at what a good integration test suite looks like including tips and tricks on how to work with external dependencies. We'll step out of the MS Test box and look at the benefits derived from test frameworks such as NUnit and xUnit as well. We will also touch on the joys of working with IIS Express, SQL Server LocalDB and more! 

About Colin:

With a nice blend of development and infrastructure experience in corporate, ISV and start-up organizations across a number of industries (from banking to rock stars as I like to put it) my job has been to get IT done. My past includes a tour of duty with Microsoft, being part of the founding team of officialCOMMUNITY, and working with teams to achieve the next level of craftsmanship in their development and infrastructure practices. Participating in the community is a key part of me - I speak at events both within Canada and internationally as well as co-organize the Metro Toronto .NET User Group. These contributions have resulted in being recognized as a Microsoft MVP for ASP.NET / IIS.
