... Well Gary, you'd be wrong. I was one of the first (years and years ago) to suggest TDD was really about design - not testing. In fact, I used to call it...
Gary et al, I agree with others who say that TDD is design, and analysis. Since we write the tests first, we have the opportunity to design the interface of...
Hi Mel, I am interested to see your write-up on your MVPR usage. I would love to take a peek at your encounter and experience with it. I am a tech lead of a...

Ilja, Thanks for the response, I will play with this also but I am fairly certain that a WinForm wants a Control. If I could create an interface that...
Matt - I have a suggestion that would take you in a sharply different direction, but it *might* be what you're looking for. First, create the view interface....

Let us know what you come up with this Matt. I would like to see a little example code if you have time. It seems I have done something similar (maybe?) where...
