Unit testing is hot in Scandinavia

April 2, 2009 - PRLog -- Unit testing is hot:

Software development is a field that is always progressing and improving. Every few years a new methodology takes this field by storm. In the early 1990s it was Object Oriented Programming, a few years back it was Garbage Collection and today unit testing is becoming the hot methodology in the software development world, especially in Scandinavian countries. Unit testing, which is part of the XP (Extreme Programming) and TDD (test Driven Development) family, is a methodology that helps to ensure that the software code meets the software requirements and behaves as the developer intended. Ideally, each test case is independent from the others, so that we can be sure that the code works as intended.

And leading the way is Scandinavia:

As Scandinavians companies are on the cutting edge of software development, and for Scandinavian companies quality is very important, most Scandinavian companies perform unit testing in their software development projects.
Scandinavian companies, from financial companies to software and IT companies are discovering the benefits of unit testing, such as higher code integrity, shorter development time, and reduced development costs.

“Unit testing helps release software versions in a shorter time, and we can be confident that we’re releasing a quality product because, unit testing makes it easy to locate errors in the code” says Gil Zilberfeld Typemock’s Technical Evangelist.
Typemock, a leading company in the unit testing world, provide tools for easy, smart and powerful unit testing. With the Typemock toolkit, any .NET developer can start unit testing today, with a minimum learning curve.

Typemock offers a free demonstration for Scandinavian companies, and a unit testing web cast is also scheduled in the near future. Check out the Typemock site for more details.
