Silverlight Unit Testing slides — but no code :(

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

On June 7 PHINUG, PHISSUG and PHIWUG conducted the {no frills} - Heroes Community Launch event in the Microsoft Philippines offices. It was a great day of sessions and demos, and I certainly enjoyed delivering my talk on Silverlight Unit Testing.

Unfortunately (and this is my excuse for such a late post) several files of my demo code were corrupted. I dunno how or why it happened, but I'm surmising it's out of not properly shutting down the laptop after the demo. And then going on a gimmick with the MS Philippines crew. :P No luck in recovering them, sadly.

Anyway, if you want to download the slides of the Silverlight Unit Testing talk, click on this link.

You could also check out the talk I based this one on -- cruizer's Silverlight Unit Testing Talk he presented in Heroes Community Launch - Singapore. He likewise has slides and code there. :)

In behalf of the Philippine .NET Users Group, I'd like to invite everyone to attend this event. It will be held on Saturday, June 7, 2008, at the Microsoft Philippines Offices at 6750 Ayala Ave., Makati City.

A shoutout and big thanks to cruizer who conducted a similar Silverlight Unit Testing talk over at Singapore's Heroes Community Launch, and is likewise helping me with my talk, although there would be big differences between his and my presentation.

Abangan. ;)

I survived Launch {2008}!

Going cross-eyed while presenting

What I mean is, I survived my first time talking to a large crowd in a big event held in a full-sized convention center (actually the country's biggest yet)!

Can the real developers please stand up?

Pointing out something

I presented on the new language features of C# 3.0 and Visual Basic 9.0.

I'd also like to congratulate Edu Lorenzo who made a presentation on LINQ:
