How Long Before Microsoft Releases a Mock Object Framework
Interesting and strong opinions. I’d like to find out the reasons behind each so that I can make an informed judgement when push comes to shove and everyone in our organisation is moved to TFS based technologies exclusively.
It’s a bit early for predictions for 2008… but here’s mine, anyway…
NUnit wasn’t invented by the borg, so they made their own (crappy) developer testing framework…
NAnt wasn’t invented by the borg, so they made their own build script and runner…
Cruise Control wasn’t invented by the borg, so they made their own (crippled) build server…
Windsor wasn’t invented by the borg, so they made their own (lame) IoC container…
Aspect# wasn’t invented by the borg, so they made their own aspect framework…
NHibernate wasn’t invented by the borg, so they made their own (mostly crappy) ORM framework…I guess RhinoMocks is next.
