This code is a short demo and example of how we can do acceptance testing using both tools. The presentation is a short one on what ATDD is, and why we should do it. It serves as a prelude to the tools demo.

Join us at the Owl and Thistle tonight in person for a pint and some good agile discussions!

The next Agile Beer Night is on Thursday August 21 2008 5PM to 8PM at the Owl and Thistle Irish Pub and Restaurant at 808 Post Avenue in downtown Seattle.

More information can be found here at the AgileBUG.com web site. There will be a presentation on Automated Acceptance Tests, and UI testing. It's a great opportunity for networking and just having a fun time.

Please tell everyone... track it back... spread the word... oh - and SHOW UP!!!

Carpool if possible. Bus if able. The location is on the corner of Post and Columbia, around the corner from the Mae Phim Thai restaurant, and just below the Fado Irish pub.

The food is good, they have lots of beers and it will be happy hour, so it's $3 burgers, $3 fish and chips, and $2.50 beers and well drinks!

Today's nerd dinner was successful... let's make this event successful also!

Practice agile? Want to? Like to meet some folks who do it well? Then let's get together in Seattle for a pint and discus Agile!

See you there...
