Here's my groups (Björn, Patrik and me) source code from the Behaviour Driven Design session. It might not mean a lot for people who didn't attend, but we figured we'd put it out anyways.

It has been a long time since I’ve been so much in the nerdy mood as today. I’ve been coding Microsoft Word (read: writing documentation) for almost 3 months now, so when I got a hint about the alt.net Öresund event today I knew that I had to attend and defy any of my normal Sunday traditions. No sleepy Sunday. No long brunch with Lydia. No café latte on some easy going café. Instead, it was all about getting dirty with code, brewed coffee and and Coca Cola. The meetup style was relaxed and open, and we got through, among other things, Behaviour Driven Design / Unit testing (with pair programming), the Command / Query pattern and SharpArchitecture. The event had sponsored lunch (thank you Microsoft Sweden!) and after-nerding beer (thank you Know It!).

Here are a few pictures from the event:

Got a nice little tip today from my friend and colleague Björn. Check out the difference in these approaches for testing strings, using the Equals method:

string someString = null;
if (someString == "gnu") //This is error prone if someString is null
{
}

if (someString.Equals("gnu")) //This is error prone if someString is null
{
}

if ("gnu".Equals(someString))//This returns false, if someString is null
{
}

Nice, huh? :-)
