MSpec – Take 2 | Elegant Code

About a year ago, I remember first hearing about Machine.Specifications (github) and trying it out for something I was developing.

I liked it right away, especially the way it cut away a lot of the noise involved with writing tests/specifications I never really ended up using MSpec on things at workThere were lots of lame reasons: We were using MbUnit and MSpec worked with NUnit (like I really care, seriously) We already had lots of existing tests and didn’t want the disjointed feeling of having two ways to do things I was already struggling at work getting people to adopt the new things I had already introduced into our environment.

I took what I could out of MSpec and the other Spec Driven Development stuff I got from the community and kind of rolled my own style of doing spec driven development just using MbUnitI’ve since gathered that there are lots of people doing this.
