What happened?

We talked about Jester and its use in xUnit other than jUnit, and MockObjects (can we do something to ensure objects in an ExpectationList? have an equals implementation? Or just a better error msg?)

We talked about the place of modelling within XP. We liked the idea of an overview diagram, maybe a system collaboration view, to give newcomers an overview. This might work on a whiteboard. We liked the use of event sequence diagrams and the odd class diagram to focus on particular problem areas. Mostly these are disposable.

We think CRC has its place too - if you use post-it notes you find that the best classes are those that don't stick at the end of the day (great tip from PhilDawes)

Rachel and Paul talked about the programme for XpDay, and decided its time to begin to form the real programme from the suggestions.
