Gain the skills needed to solve real-world software development problems, and deliver fast, reliable applications. In this training course, you will identify and solve common design and architecture problems, apply best practices and design patterns to .NET application development, write code that is more maintainable, flexible and resilient, and apply design patterns for application reuse and flexibility.

You Will Learn How To

  • Solve complex programming problems using design patterns
  • Deliver bug-free code using test-driven development in Visual Studio
  • Create layered architectures for reusability and to eliminate functional duplication
  • Apply the S.O.L.I.D. principles for better class design

Important Course Information

Requirements:

  • Programming experience at the level of:
  • You should have experience:
    • Working with Visual Studio
    • Using object-oriented concepts
    • Building .NET applications in Visual Basic, C#, or C++

Software:

  • This course uses Visual Studio 2013, but is useful to those using an earlier version

  • Restructuring database tables without impacting code

Modelling a business area

  • Liberating rich Business Object Models from database structures using the Domain Model pattern
  • Mapping rich Business Objects to database tables with the Data Mapper pattern
  • Collapsing Business Object hierarchies with the Inheritance Mapper pattern
  • Exploiting declarative programming in Microsoft Entity Framework to implement Data Mapping classes
  • Applying Best Practices

Organising and implementing business logic
