Pair programming
Refactoring
Build automation with NAnt and CCNet
Object-relational mapping with NHibernate
Automated unit and Integration testing

Separation of Concerns
Design patterns

What will I need to do to prepare for the training?
This advanced agile curriculum will cover everything involved in developing software in .NET, from setting up a new project and defining the architecture to implementing functionality in a loosely-coupled and testable manner. We will immerse ourselves in domain-driven design, test-driven development, design patterns, object-relational mapping, inversion of control (IoC), pair programming, automated builds, and continuous integration (CI). Students will discover which practices cause projects to fail and which practices help projects succeed. The course will include a strong focus on solid principles and values that can be applied to any .NET project. With a solid understanding of Agile values and object-oriented programming, students will emerge from the training with a refocused view on software development and the tools to immediately bring value back to their companies. All developers will take back working code developed during the course using the techniques and practices taught. This course is best for those who have already taken Part 1 or for senior development staff who have already mastered the topics in Part 1.
