This “deceptively simple” reversal, however, fundamentally changes the role that testing plays in the development process and challenges assumptions about what testing is for.  Starting with an overview of TDD, Freeman and Pryce fill in the practical details that actually make it work in object-oriented systems. They also present an extended example that tries to strike a balance between being large enough to be realistic and small enough to fit in a book. Addison Wesley ProfessionalSteve FreemanNat PryceAgile ComputingFebruary 27, 2009http://safari5.bvdep.com/9780596007393Few .NET developers have the luxury of unlimited code testing once their application is complete, and rushing through the testing process is both problematic and stressful. The open source NUnit framework provides an excellent and efficient way to test and improve .NET code as it's written, saving hundreds of QA hours and headaches. NUnit is one of the most mature and widely-used .NET open source projects even Microsoft uses it internally. NUnit is a unit-testing framework for all .Net languages. Written entirely in C#, NUnit takes advantage of many .NET language features, such as custom attributes and other reflection related capabilities. It automates unit testing and reduces the effort required to frequently test code while developing it. NUint is invaluable for .NET developers in test-driven development under agile methodologies such as Extreme Programming (XP) as well as for developers who use for unit testing for software quality assurance. Unfortunately, some of those valuable hours saved by using NUnit can be wasted trying to master this powerful but under-documented framework Proof that good things come in small packages, the NUnit Pocket Reference is a complete reference to NUnit, filling in the blanks left by the existing documentation and online discussion. It offers developers everything they need to know to install, configure, and use NUnit; the NUnit user interface; and a reference to the NUnit framework classes in a slim but well-organized package. This handy little book even offers practical, real world NUnit examples. And with the NUnit Pocket Reference, IT managers will know to expect when they implement unit testing in their projects. It is the only book you'll need on this popular and practical new open source framework.O'ReillyBill HamiltonSafari IT BooksAugust 25, 2004http://safari5.bvdep.com/9781587058349This is the Rough Cut version of the printed book.The official study guide helps you master all the topics on the IIUC exam, including: Connecting IP phones to the LAN infrastructure CME installation CME IP phone configuration CME voice productivity features Gateway and trunk concepts and configuration Cisco Unity Express concepts and configuration Smart Business Communications System Configuring and maintaining the UC500 for voice CCNA Voice Official Exam Certification Guide is a best of breed Cisco exam study guide that focuses specifically on the objectives for the CCNA Voice IIUC exam.

Effective FPGA system design requires a strong understanding of VLSI issues and constraints, and an understanding of the latest FPGA-specific techniques. In this book, Princeton University's Wayne Wolf covers everything FPGA designers need to know about all these topics: both the "how" and the "why."Wolf begins by introducing the essentials of VLSI: fabrication, circuits, interconnects, combinational and sequential logic design, system architectures, and more. Next, he demonstrates how to reflect this VLSI knowledge in a state-of-the-art design methodology that leverages FPGA's most valuable characteristics while mitigating its limitations. Coverage includes: How VLSI characteristics affect FPGAs and FPGA-based logic design How classical logic design techniques relate to FPGA-based logic design Understanding FPGA fabrics: the basic programmable structures of FPGAs Specifying and optimizing logic to address size, speed, and power consumption Verilog, VHDL, and software tools for optimizing logic and designs The structure of large digital systems, including register-transfer design methodology Building large-scale platform and multi-FPGA systems A start-to-finish DSP case study addressing a wide range of design problems PRENTICE HALLProfessional Technical ReferenceUpper Saddle River, NJ 07458www.phptr.comISBN: 0-13-142461-0Prentice HallWayne WolfInformation TheoryJune 15, 2004
