C# Tools and Frameworks
May 11th, 2006 by alpriest
It’s been a while since I wrote about the C# tools / frameworks i’m currently using, so here we go.
- log4net - for all our logging needs.
- nunit - automated testing.
- nmock - for mocking interfaces and writing more testable code. (see my blogpost)
- nant - automating our build cycles (although we’re looking at msbuild to replace Cruise Control, as it may fit better with our skill set).
- OpenSTA - for web-based load testing. Microsoft took a step back with ACT replacing WAST, and although the new version of ACT in vs2005 is supposed to be great, OpenSTA is providing an interim solution for us.
- Selenium - for web-based smoke testing.
- nHibernate - our chosen ORM. (see my blogpost)
- nSpectre - provides entity validation within our systems. Written mainly by my colleague Mark with occasional input from myself and another colleague Ben.
