These are the slides for the GeekUp Sheffield presentation on encouraging discipline in software teams, from October 2008. This is the first presentation I made, since the start of PatchSpace / my agile coaching career. Despite being so old, I still agree with what I said over 18 months ago.
The nature of the session was a huddle, so the slides are brief, and most of the value was in the discussion after.
This is a repost, as I will shortly be dropping the aviewfromafar.net blog, but this one is worth preserving.

NWRUG (Oct 2009) - Uses & Abuses of Mocks & Stubs
These are the slides for the NWRUG presentation on mocks, from July 2009.
Note that most of the slides were written in the middle of the night, and I didn't have much time to trim them down. And I didn't get to beta test them on a real live human being. So the presentation goes on a bit long, and some things look a bit strange without me there explaining them. I've corrected the slide that I noticed was spectacularly wrong (ie, the spec didn't even pass), but otherwise it's as presented.

Also my opinions on some things may have changed since, so consider this an archive...
