Thank you everyone who came to my full-day workshop on ASP.NET MVC! Here is the link to the updated PowerPoint slides:

Rhino Mocks is the most popular Mock Object Framework for .NET. The purpose of this blog entry is to provide a brief introduction to Rhino Mocks. In particular, I want to describe how you can use Rhino Mocks when building ASP.NET MVC web applications.

The purpose of this blog entry is to explain how you can create unit tests by using Visual Studio 2008. I’m not interested in unit tests in general -- I’m interested in building a particular type of unit test. I want to build unit tests that can be used when following good Test-Driven Development (TDD) practices when building ASP.NET MVC Web Application projects.

The purpose of this blog entry is to describe, in painful detail, each step in the life of an ASP.NET MVC request from birth to death. I want to understand everything that happens when you type a URL in a browser and hit the enter key when requesting a page from an ASP.NET MVC website.

Typemock Isolator is often referred to the most powerful Mock Object Framework for .NET. I’ve heard people talk about it as “The Big Guns”, “The Nuclear Weapon”, the “Cleanup Guy”. In this blog entry, I’m going to provide you with a brief introduction to Typemock Isolator.

I stumbled across The Art of Unit Testing by Roy Osherove while researching Mock Object frameworks that can be used with ASP.NET MVC. Even though the author is still in the process of writing the book, you can download an early draft of this book at http://www.manning.com/osherove/.

Yes, you can use ASP.NET AJAX with ASP.NET MVC. Several people have asked me recently how you can use ASP.NET AJAX in an ASP.NET MVC view. In this blog entry, I’m going to explain the problem and the solution.
