Growing Object-Oriented Software, Guided by Tests (Beck Signature Series)
Steve Freeman, Nat Pryce
Addison-Wesley Professional, 2009
Summary Mock Objects is an approach to Test-Driven Development that changes the way programmers think about code.

Ann Catherine Jose, 2004
This article provides an introduction to aspect-oriented programming (AOP), specifically in the context of ASP.NET programming. Although the .NET Framework and ASP.NET do not implement AOP as such, there are features of ASP.NET, such as HTTP modules, whose basic design evinces AOP-like methodologies, and we can use these features to provide a greater understanding of AOP principles.

Craig Larman
Addison-Wesley Professional, 2003
Excellent survey of iterative and incremental development (IID) methodologies

However, rather than serving as a guide to determine ...
