Reliable Object Oriented Software

Reliable Object-Oriented Software presents the underlying principles associated with object-orientation and its practical application. More than just another text on methodology, this 1998 book focuses on the fundamental concepts related to the process of software development and architectural design in order to lay the basis necessary for the development of robust, maintainable, and evolvable software. The authors present both formal concepts and practical applications. It includes proven problem-solving techniques designed to develop readers' engineering judgement and to focus their attention on the principles of good software design and its successful application. In addition, an extensive bibliography has been compiled to guide the reader in further studies and to crystallize what is commonly accepted in the field and what is still controversial.

In the demanding world of software development, the object-oriented technique stands out in its potential for software reuse and in its potential to turn the analysis, design and implementation of general software systems into a truly seamless process. This book focuses on Business Object Notation approach and includes case studies, exercises and comprehensive appendices.

Test-Driven Development (TDD) is now an established technique for delivering better software faster. TDD is based on a simple idea: Write tests for your code before you write the code itself. However, this "simple" idea takes skill and judgment to do well. Now there's a practical guide to TDD that takes you beyond the basic concepts. Drawing on a decade of experience building real-world systems, two TDD pioneers show how to let tests guide your development and “grow” software that is coherent, reliable, and maintainable. Steve Freeman and Nat Pryce describe the processes they use, the design principles they strive to achieve, and some of the tools that help them get the job done. Through an extended worked example, you’ll learn how TDD works at multiple levels, using tests to drive the features and the object-oriented structure of the code, and using Mock Objects to discover and then describe relationships between objects. Along the way, the book systematically addresses challenges that development teams encounter with TDD—from integrating TDD into your processes to testing your most difficult features. Coverage includes Implementing TDD effectively: getting started, and maintaining your momentum throughout the project Creating cleaner, more expressive, more sustainable code Using tests to stay relentlessly focused on sustaining quality Understanding how TDD, Mock Objects, and Object-Oriented Design come together in the context of a real software development project Using Mock Objects to guide object-oriented designs Succeeding where TDD is difficult: managing complex test data, and testing persistence and concurrency

TL;DR Compound variable names, validators, private static literals, configurable objects, inheritance, annotations, MVC, dependency injection containers, reflection, ORM and even algorithms are our enemies.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 23rd Ada-Europe International Conference on Reliable Software Technologies, Ada-Europe 2018, held in Lisbon, Portugal, in June 2018. The 10 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 27 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named: safety and security; Ada 202X; handling implicit overhead; real-time scheduling; and new application domains.

Beginning C# Object-Oriented Programming brings you into the modern world of development as you master the fundamentals of programming with C# and learn to develop efficient, reusable, elegant code through the object-oriented programming (OOP) methodology. Take your skills out of the 20th century and into this one with Dan Clark's accessible, quick-paced guide to C# and object-oriented programming, completely updated for .NET 4.0 and C# 4.0. As you develop techniques and best practices for coding in C#, one of the world's most popular contemporary languages, you'll experience modeling a “real world” application through a case study, allowing you to see how both C# and OOP (a methodology you can use with any number of languages) come together to make your code reusable, modern, and efficient. With more than 30 fully hands-on activities, you'll discover how to transform a simple model of an application into a fully-functional C# project, including designing the user interface, implementing the business logic, and integrating with a relational database for data storage. Along the way, you will explore the .NET Framework, the creation of a Windows-based user interface, a web-based user interface, and service-oriented programming, all using Microsoft's industry-leading Visual Studio 2010, C#, Silverlight, the Entity Framework, and more.

This comprehensive and well-written book presents the fundamentals of object-oriented software engineering and discusses the recent technological developments in the field. It focuses on object-oriented software engineering in the context of an overall effort to present object-oriented concepts, techniques and models that can be applied in software estimation, analysis, design, testing and quality improvement. It applies unified modelling language notations to a series of examples with a real-life case study. The example-oriented approach followed in this book will help the readers in understanding and applying the concepts of object-oriented software engineering quickly and easily in various application domains. This book is designed for the undergraduate and postgraduate students of computer science and engineering, computer applications, and information technology. KEY FEATURES : Provides the foundation and important concepts of object-oriented paradigm. Presents traditional and object-oriented software development life cycle models with a special focus on Rational Unified Process model. Addresses important issues of improving software quality and measuring various object-oriented constructs using object-oriented metrics. Presents numerous diagrams to illustrate object-oriented software engineering models and concepts. Includes a large number of solved examples, chapter-end review questions and multiple choice questions along with their answers.
