Presentation: JUnit
------------------------------------------
JUnit is a regression testing framework written by Erich Gamma and Kent Beck. It is used by developers implementing unit tests in Java to accelerate programming and increase the quality of their code. This talk will provide an overview of what JUnit is, why you want to use it and design patterns used on a J2EE project to facilitate the use of JUnit. It will also describe strategies for automated testing as part of the build process with Ant.

A 128 kb powerpoint presentation is available.

Speaker: Matt Weber, Convergys
-------------------------------------------
Matt Weber has been working in object-oriented development for more than 10 years. Matt started in 1991 with a proprietary language that gave C a Smalltalk feel. He quickly migrated to C++ in 1992 and worked extensively with C++ in three-tier environments for several years. Matt began working with Java in 1996 and has been developing in Java exclusively since 1998. He relocated to the Orlando area in 1995 for the Time Warner Full Service Network interactive video trials. After that project ended, Matt consulted at various companies in the Central Florida area including a brief stint in the defense world with JSIMS before he rejoined Convergys.
