A test-first demo on the web
While I was mulling over what to demo for test-first development here in this blog, I chanced upon this CodeProject article.

What do you think about this? Actually the same problem was the one I demoed in my previous MSDN Connection events for Microsoft Philippines some months back. I've gotten tired of the problem, and I appreciate the inputs of those here who commented that there is a need to demo something that's more real-world than converting numbers into English words. In my TDD experience I've noticed that TDD is not a good thing to use in developing algorithms. TDD is, in my observation, a tool that's better put to use in determining class designs and interactions. Maybe I can demo this particular observation too.

Anyway if you have ideas on what real-world situation and/or requirement would be cool to demo, I'm all for it. Just send a comment here or drop me an email. Just remove the "spamMeNot" from the email address.

Hello Sir Cruizer Maybe you could do design a simple class for the NorthWind Database =)

well i'm not familiar with the Northwind database, so i'll put that in the back burner. but what's in it that you want to see in a demo? basically it seems to me that many of the class methods that will be demoed will simply do SQL to  do operations on the Northwind db. am i right?
