De la contraportada

ASP.NET MVC offers you control over generated HTML and scripts, clean and user-friendly URLs, and clean separation between your UI and code. While traditional ASP.NET Web Forms are beneficial for rapid web development, they are not test-friendly. Thankfully, Test Driven Development (TDD) and ASP.NET MVC provide you with a reliable methodology that decreases the risk for errors when developing web applications. Together, ASP.NET MVC and TDD are direct and clear about what is happening on your page, what gets rendered, and how it gets there, and they do not allow anything to appear that you didn't put there yourself.

This practical guide shows you how to write a real-world web site from conception to production. After a detailed description of the project you'll build, you'll encounter several problems during the process and learn the tools and techniques necessary to solve them. Each chapter introduces the various concepts and features of ASP.NET MVC that will help you implement a solution to a specific problem. Along the way, you'll be exposed to all facets of web application development, such as requirements, design, testing, deployment, beta releases, refactoring, and tool and framework selection, that will arm you with a thorough understanding of best practices for web development using TDD.
