# Code from DevDays Belgium available: Design for Testability & Smart Client Offline Caching and Synchronization

I had a good time at DevDays Belgium and would love to go back there again sometime in the future. I just hope the crowd enjoyed my sessions. In any case, I'm making available the demo code from two of my presentations (Designing for testability and Smart Client Caching and Synchronization).

- [Smart Client Offline Caching and Synchronization](http://www.teamagile.com/downloads/SmartClientOfflineDataCachingAndSyncDemos.zip) (This code is adapted from [Brian Noyes](http://www.softinsight.com/bnoyes/)' excellent Original Demo code to fit VS 2005) (1.7MB)
- [Designing for Testability](http://www.teamagile.com/downloads/TeamAgile.Design4TestabilityDemos.zip) (200k)
- _**Note: Both downloads are built for VS 2005**_

One nice thing I noticed at the event is that there was noticeable user group activity. For example, there was a great booth from the [Belgian XP User group](http://www.xp.be/) right there, giving books and raffling nice stuff, and giving away a "planning game" tutorial. I'll have a separate post on this later on.

Rock on Belgium! I got to meet some great people, and had two lovely geek dinners while I was there. I just love those kinds of experiences :)
