Roy is author of "The Art of Unit Testing" (http://www.artofunittesting.com/), a leading tdd & unit testing book; he maintains a blog at http://iserializable.com (which amoung other things has critiqued tests written by Microsoft for asp.net MVC – check out the testreviews category) and has recently been on the Scott Hanselman podcast (http://bit.ly/psgYO) where he educated Scott on best practices in Unit Testing techniques. For a further insight into Roy’s style, be sure to also check out Roy’s talk at the recent Norwegian Developer’s Conference (http://bit.ly/NuJVa).

I’m currently reading Roy’s book now and it gives heck of a lot of good advise to a TDD novice like me when it comes to writing good and maintainable unit tests, and to have 5 days with this guy would be awesome to progress further in the TDD space :)

  1. I don’t know where you’re located, but I thought I’d mention that Roy’s Masterclass will be coming to Oslo as well November 30th.

    Keep up the blogging!

  2. Thanks, didn’t know that.

    I’m located in Trondheim, and there aren’t that much difference in the cost flying to Oslo vs UK and the hotels cost about the same too. Domestic flights are way too expensive when you start comparing them to flying out of country :)

    Related: Travelled to San Francisco in dec 06, and those tickets were cheaper than flying to Haugesund according to the travel agent ;)

  3. That’s crazy, but true. The SAS monopoly in Haugesund is lifting now though, as Norwegian is starting up there (yes, I’m from Haugesund).

    And I would for sure pick the UK class myself, but if I were located in Oslo that would be the best option I guess.
