Thanks very much for writing this blog post. I’m sure a majority of NZ’s .net community wonders how things are done at Trademe as NZ’s leading website.

If you haven’t come across them already, your team might like to add NCoverExplorer and TestDriven.Net to the toolkit. They complement NCover and NUnit very nicely.

Cheers,

Tim.

I remember the first time I came to your office in Wellington and sat down with you nutting out what .Net 2.0 could do. It’s hard to believe that was almost 2 years ago. Since then we’ve had Kit George, WebStock & Tony Chor, Tech.Ed & of course Scott Guthrie and the rugby ( http://static.flickr.com/69/219498068_317b9727be.jpg ).

I remember in the car that night the conversation you had with Scott Guthrie about blogging. Did that conversation help you choose to start this one up?

P.s. I’m absolutely loving Ken’s Kuban Trade Me coffee!

Well done mate!
Nigel
