The Full Stack, Part 10: Accidentally Pair Programming and Writing Unit Tests

Update: 2011-05-18

Description

In this episode of The Full Stack, Jesse and Jon continue their reboot of the windows phone client project. Having set up an MVVM application and decided on using a repository pattern on the phone that mirrors the server's repository, Jon throws caution to the wind and gives it a shot.

Some highlights:

Moving to the repository pattern breaks the application workflow causes some interesting changes in how state is maintained
Jon and Jesse decide it's time to start moving towards separate client and server databases with a sync process
Jon writes a buggy save method and actually decides to write a failing unit test before fixing it

Note: This episode was actually recorded in May and nearly got lost in the shuffle with MIX. We still think it's a good one since it explains where we're going with the client/server data storage, so here it is.
