Aslak Hellesøy

I started out writing Aslak Hellesøy’s Planning Poker Timer for (you guessed it): Planning Poker.

We’re going to use the same timer to make speakers stick to their alotted 10 minutes at a lightning talk/open space conference I’m organising with other agile enthusiasts next week.

Johannes Brodwall (who’s one of the other organisers) suggested that the timer should go red when there is three minutes left and black when time is up.

So here you go – it’s now a whole lot more tweakable, and it’s got nice Scriptaculous transitions too.

RSpec is inspiring a lot of open source developers to write BDD frameworks. The last one on the scene is Erlend Oftedal’s .NetSpec

It builds on Microsoft’s unit testing framework which is interesting from a tools perspective.
