I didn't see this mentioned on the list yet (might have missed it
though), so I thought I'd forward it. XP PDX is talking about Unit
Testing and Rails tomorrow.

Aaron Johnson will be talking about unit testing web pages and UIs via Ruby.

If you've ever written a GUI- or web-driven application, you know the
difficulty of using TDD on the front-end. Aaron presents several solutions,
many of which use the Ruby language. He'll be discussing:

 * What GUI functional & unit tests look like,
 * Ruby on Rails,
 * Mock Objects,
 * An overview of Waitr.

Ruby, like Python, is an interpreted language with a very clean syntax that
supports OO, Functional, and Proceedural programming. This talk will also give
you an introduction to Ruby. You'll see several of the ways that such a
language can make your life easier, even if it isn't the language in which
most of your application is written.

The meeting is, as usual, at OGI at 6:30pm on the second Tuesday of the month
(tomorrow). The talk will start at 7. See
http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?PortlandXpUsersGroup for more information, including
directions to OGI.

We hope to see you there.

Arlo
