I had a really great time today at Tesco.Com — thanks for inviting me to talk about acceptance testing and thanks again for the champagne. Here are the slides and links from the talk:

• L.G.Shattuck — Communicating Intent and Imparting Presence
• William Crain — The Mission: The Dilemma of Specified Task and Implied Commander’s Intent
• James Shore: How I use Fit
• FitNesse.Org — main FitNesse web site
• Fitnesse.info — Community site with lots of examples
• Fixture gallery — copy-paste examples for all important FIT fixture types

As always, it was a real pleasure to talk at Skills Matter yesterday. Thanks to everyone who attended the talk. There was quite an interest in this talk, and we might do a re-run for the people who could not make it this time. If you’d like to attend a re-run of the talk soon, drop an e-mail to the organisers and I’ll be happy to do it if there is enough interest.

Here are the slides from the talk. The video should be online at skillsmatter.com soon as well (subscribe to the RSS feed to get notified about that).

These are the links that I mentioned in the talk:

• Spring/Hibernate rollback example
• DbFit project pages on FitNesse.info

I’m doing a talk on effective test driven database development this Thursday in London (near Farringdon station, stating at 18:30). I’ll talk about unit testing stored procedures, test data management and best practices for java/.net integration testing that involves a database. In the talk I’ll also give a technical demo of my DbFit database unit testing library that provides DB management/unit testing capabilities to FIT/FitNesse.

The event will be organised by Skills Matter, and it is free but registration is required. For more info, see:
