# Project White and a cool debugging tip

By Roy Osherove February 24, 2008 In [Agile](https://osherove.com/blog/category/agile), [General Software Devel...](https://osherove.com/blog/category/general-software-devel)

**Historical article** · Originally published February 24, 2008; technical details may be outdated.

Some cool stuff happening in the testing world:

\* [Project white](http://www.codeplex.com/white) seems like a nice takeoff on winforms testing (a la NUnitForms), from the thoughtworks Guys. [Bil Simser talks about it some more](http://weblogs.asp.net/bsimser/archive/2008/02/21/automated-ui-testing-with-project-white.aspx).

\* Gregg Miskelly came up with a brilliant debugging trick on his [blog](http://blogs.msdn.com/greggm/archive/2007/01/17/setting-conditional-breakpoints-using-object-ids.aspx). He shows how to set a breakpoint to stop only on a specific object instance using Object Ids during Debugging. (via [BugSlayer](http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/07/07/Bugslayer/#S6))
