My tool belt

image

Earlier this fall I was tagged by Gøran Hansen. He wondered what tools I use besides Visual Studio. Here is my response to his post:

Addins:

- ReShaper (How can you program without this one?)
- Testdriven.NET (Great addin, but I don't use it much because of ReSharpers possibilities to run unit tests.)
- GhostDoc

Developer tool belt:
- NUnit (I know there are many frameworks out there, but this is a safe one that "everything" supports)
- Moq (mocking framework --> If you haven't looked at this framework, you should!)
- Tortoise SVN (code repository)
- Git (local code repository. I normally use this as a "shelf" for SVN.)
- CruiseControl.NET
- Team City (I really like this one. I don't like XML hacking :-) )
- MSBuild
- Nant
- RhinoMocks (Great framework, but maybe not so intuitive?)

Well, there's my list.
Do you have suggestions to tools I should look into?

Great new site for Q & A

Category: Miscellaneous | Recommendationsfossmo @ 11:50

Stack Overflow is a programming Q & A site that's free. I have used it for about 14 days now, and I find it very useful. For every question you ask, or answer, you earn badges. This makes it kind of cool to ask questions and answer questions on this site. The questions and answers can be voted for, and this way bad answers (or questions) are ranked low and good answers are ranked high. I really think this site will take off. The people behind the site is Jeff Atwood and Joel Spolsky, the first mentioned, being one of my favorit bloggers. They also run a podcast. It can be found at blog.stackoverflow.com. Check out the Stack overflow site at www.stackoverflow.com

What's your Circle of Interest?

Category: Miscellaneous | Thoughtsfossmo @ 23:47

There's a lot of bloggers posting about something called the Circle of Interest. I was encouraged by Gøran Hansen to post my Circle of Interest. The main idea of setting up this circle, is to show what you are focusing on at the moment. Circle of Interest was started by Paul Stovell. Other people I know posting on this is Jonas Follesø.

Gøran has a good description on what a Circle of interest is over at his blog.

Anbefaling av blog

Category: Miscellaneous fossmo @ 15:01
Hver dag prøver jeg å få tid til å lese noen blogger. En av bloggene jeg setter mest pris på er skrevet av Jeff Atwood. Han er en utvikler som har tenkt litt gjennom faget og har mange gode tanker omkring problemløsing, design og andre ting som en programmerer kommer ut for gjennom dagen. Linken til hans blogg er http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/

NY INTERNETT LEVERANDØR

Category: Miscellaneous fossmo @ 16:03
Jeg har hatt Nextgentel som internett leverandør i snart 5 år nå. Jeg har vært godt fornøyd med dem. Nå skal det sies at jeg ikke har hatt noe kontakt med kundesenteret deres. Frem til nå. Jeg oppdaget at jeg ikke fikk den hastigheten jeg betalte for. Så jeg bestemte meg for å ringe dem. Det var en frustrerende opplevelse. Jeg ble sittende i telefonen i 25 minutter før jeg fikk svar. Da ble jeg satt over til en annen avdeling, for supporten som jeg ble satt til på sentralbordet, kunne ikke hjelpe meg. Når jeg da havnet bakerst i køen igjen, kokte det over. Jeg la på og sendte en e-post. Etter noen dager var det en som ringte meg opp, og han testet linjen inn til leiligheten min. Den var for dårlig, så jeg sa opp hele greia og tegnet en avtale med Canal Digital. Nå har jeg en linje som er 5000/2000. :-) Godt fornøyd med det. Den koster bare 40 kr mer i måneden også.

GMAIL SKIN

Category: Miscellaneous fossmo @ 16:02
Jeg fant en utrolig kul plugin til nettleseren Firefox i dag. Den heter Gmail Skins. Du kan endre hele utseende til gmail. Det er også mulig å legge til SMILYer og bilder direkte i eposten du skriver. Sjekk den ut. Adressen er http://gmailskins.mozdev.org/
