Windows Developer Power Tools
Friday, January 19th, 2007
The time has finally come for the official release and availability of Windows Developer Power Tools. I briefly posted about the book before, but it was during the editing process and before the release of the book. I received my copy of the book about a week ago and it feels great to see everything in print. The book is a great reference guide and well worth the money. I still haven’t made it all the way through the book, but I learn something new every time I sit down and flip through it.
James and Jim have done a great job of writing and pulling together tool authors and contributors for the book. The book covers a lot of breadth and is well worth the time to read through the book.
The articles that I contributed to the book included:
- Finding Changes Between Assembly Versions with LibCheck
- Integrating Mock Objects into Your Testing with NMock 2.0
- Automating Web Application Testing with Selenium Core
- Extending MSBuild Capabilities with MSBuild Community Tasks
- Improving Team Communication and Collaboration with Basecamp
- Examining Logs with LogParser
There’s some great stuff in the book and it serves as a wonderful overview of many different tools.
