Development Experience(s)

I just found a nice article about applied TDD (Test Driven Development) in C# and thought I'd share. It's nicely condenced and to the point and will take you about 5-15 minutes to read, depending on whether or not you want to try out examples too. Improving Application Quality Using Test-Driven Development (TDD)

This post is dedicated the human performance, rather than the performance of the code we write. The past two nights, I have gotten less sleep than I need. Unsurprisingly, the result is that I am slightly more tired than usual. I have noted, however, that I do boring, repetative tasks much quicker and with less errors today though, than when I am more rested. At the same time, I am noticing that I have to correct more typos in this post than I usually have... I am currently developing a ASP.NET Forms application, and am writing code for a form with a gazillion or so inputs. I'm progressing much faster today, than two days ago. I need to stop writing this post, though ... my brain is not able to produce anything more creative. My quick conclusion is: Less sleep = More efficient in executing repetative tasks Less sleep = Less efficient in executing creative/improvised tasks Very interesting. :-)
