• Don't Use Mocks

  A very good way to use mocks (not like illustrated here) is explained in the GOOS book by Freeman and Pryce: http://www.growing-object-oriented-software.com/

• Steel threads are a technique that will make you a better engineer

  On the subject of TDD, the way I've done TDD has been very similar to the technique described in the article. Work in very small increments, try to get a very thin vertical slice of functionality working through the system as soon as possible and, whatever you build, try to get it working end-to-end as soon as you can. Of course, I use tests to drive the work but I find it very helpful to use tests to drive those thin vertical slices of functionality.

  The book that really helped me to start working in this way is Growing Object Oriented Software, Guided by Tests by Steve Freeman and Nat Pryce [0]. The book has been around for a few years at this point and tech has moved on since then, as have some of the techniques, but it's still a very interesting read. (Disclosure: I was lucky enough to briefly work with one of the authors a few years ago but I was a fan of the book long before then.)

• Unit testing best practices
  1 project | /r/csharp | 21 Jan 2023

  I think this is still the most referenced work. You probably know that one like the back of your hand, but it's still good to reference in general to convey confidence in the topic.

  [3] Have a look at the testing asynchronous systems examples in the GOOS Code examples repository for a more object-oriented implementation of helper for the polling for changes strategy, and also examples of the capturing notifications strategy.
