NHibernate, FluentNHibernate and the Repository Pattern in 1 Hour or Less
In this session we will discuss ORMs, how and why they are becoming so popular, and how to use them effectively. I will show you how to set up NHibernate, use FluentNHibernate to create mappings in code and use the Repository pattern to create a robust, easily maintainable data access layer.

Behavior-Driven Development from the Trenches
There has been a lot of talk about test-driven, acceptance-test-driven, behavior-driven, anything-you-can-think-of-driven development lately. I will talk about behavior-driven development, how it relates to and encompasses some of these practices. I will show you the tools related to BDD, and how they help you code and design always with the customer's requirements in mind. Then I will actually show you how to get started with BDD on the .Net (specifically C#) platform. You should walk away from this session armed with enough information to get you started towards tested code that really nails what the customer needs.
