New Blog
My Blog
This is my new blog where I’ll be posting all my thoughts about testing the IronRuby implementation. I’ll also be posting thoughts on testing, language design, language interop, and applying testing theory to a language implementation.
Me
I’m a new hire at Microsoft, I’ve been working there since April. I’ll also try to post thoughts on working there too. My prior experience with Ruby includes playing with it since mid-2006, and Ruby on Rails programming for Genetree, Inc. I’m not an expert to the level of _why, but I know my way around. At Genetree, we did TDD/BDD using RSpec, which is where I learned about testing.
I’m a fan of Open Source software, and I’m proud to be part of one of the the first Open Source projects at Microsoft. In the past I’ve made contributions to Rails and RSpec (under the username parcelbrat), and I intend to get involved with them again once I get my head above water at Lake Microsoft ;).
More Blog Stuffs
I look forward to having conversations with you, and have kept commenting open for that reason. First time moderation is required, but it’s open after that. If you feel the need to contact me privately, you can reach me at jdevilleATmicrosoftDOTcom.
UPDATE: Changed heading sizes to not look like post titles

First comment to the blog is mine! Cool
Congrats, man. IronRuby is undeservingly underblogged.

Hi,
Great to see an IronRuby Blog shaping up.
I hope, i’ll see more informative news and blogs here. How about starting a mini blog/tutorial on Asp.Net MVC with IronRuby.
Thanks and best wishes.

Probably not much on the ASP.NET MVC stuff. I’ll post my experiences with it when I play with it, but I intend to focus on the internal testing of IronRuby, and the experience of using IronRuby to test other .NET programs. For example, using RSpec to test a WinForms application.
