Design Tech Talk Series Presents: OO Design for Testability

[vaulttech]

I've searched for the other 3 talks (since this is the fourh) but I couldn't find them. Can someone please give me the link?

Very nice talk. A bit ambiguous with the term singleton. There is the singleton pattern as described in the Gof4 book which is the one that is problematic to test and there is the single instance of a class throughout the life of the application. There is nothing wrong with the latter IMO.

Well I think he refered to the latter case as "the class with singleton lifetime" and not a singleton (I noticed this ambiguity only when he talked about the Login_class). And he did not say it was problematic to test because it had singleton lifetime, he said it was problematic owing to it's dependencies, and therefore that particular class might have been better as short-lived class with different dependencies, that wouldn't force it to break the law of Demeter.Am I getting it right?

I meant LoginPage, sorry.

I believe this is very helpful tip for all developers.

Another Great Talk- a summary of his other "Clean Code Talks".

The one thing I still lament that is not addressed well is how to simplify DI and Testing in C++.

I also saw his previous "clean code talks" (it's been a while, so it was a good opportunity to refresh it), but am I wrong or did he change his mind about null objects? iirc, before he was a proponent of using null pointers.

Great talk!
