# \[Article X 2\] 2 more of mine published on MSDNAA

By Roy Osherove November 4, 2003 In [.Net Original](https://osherove.com/blog/category/net-original), [Cool Articles](https://osherove.com/blog/category/cool-articles)

**Historical article** · Originally published November 4, 2003; technical details may be outdated.

Two more articles posted on [MSDNAA](http://www.msdnaa.net/):

[**Introduction to Test-driven Development with NUnit and the NUnit Add-in**](http://msdnaa.net/Resources/display.aspx?ResID=2365)
This article explores Test-Driven development (TDD) techniques.

[**Fun with Unit Tests–Testing Abstract Classes**](http://msdnaa.net/Resources/display.aspx?ResID=2364)
In this article I’ll be looking into a trickier part of unit testing; testing the functionality of classes that cannot be instantiated on their own, abstract classes. I’ll show how to overcome this obstacle using “Mock Objects,” a technique that has a whole methodology behind it all on its own. We’ll see how mock objects provide us with abilities that let us query what’s happening inside our derived class.

Boy, my [article list](http://msdnaa.net/search.aspx?SearchText=osherove&ResourceTypes=all&Mode=Search&Archives=False) on there beginning to look like something.
