# PPWCode.Util.Test



This library is part of the PPWCode project and is a collection of several

small helpers and utility code.



## Getting started



### PPWCode.Util.Test I



This is version I of the library, which is designed to work with Microsoft .NET 4.5.



The library is available as the [NuGet] package `PPWCode.Util.Test.I`

in the [NuGet Gallery].  It can be installed using the Nuget package manager from 

inside Visual Studio.



## Build your own



A couple of reasons come to mind as to why you would want to build your own package of

this library. One reason would be that you need a version of the library built

with the debug configuration. Another reason might be that you need features

that are available on master, but that are not yet released.



Building your own package of this library is very easy.  A [psake] build script is

added for this purpose.



Before executing regular [psake] tasks, the environment must first be initialized.

To do this, open a PowerShell prompt, and execute the following in the root folder

of the source.



    .\init-psake.ps1



This will initialize your environment. Note that the script assumes that the

[NuGet] commandline client is available on the path.



After the initialization, several [psake] tasks can be executed using the

PowerShell command `Invoke-psake` that is available now. Here are a couple

of examples:



    Invoke-psake

    Invoke-psake ?

    Invoke-psake PackageRestore

    Invoke-psake Package -properties @{ 'configuration'='Debug'; 'repos'=@('nuget'); 'publishrepo' = 'local' }



The last line builds a [NuGet] package using the 'Debug' configuration, and publishes

it to the [NuGet] repository with the name 'local'. The [NuGet] repository 'nuget'

is used to locate the dependent [NuGet] packages.

## PPWCode



This package is part of the PPWCode project, developed by [PeopleWare n.v.].



More information can be found in the following locations:

* [PPWCode project website]

* [PPWCode Google Code website]



Please note that not all information on those sites is up-to-date. We are

currently in the process of moving the code away from the Google code

subversion repositories to git repositories on [GitHub].



### PPWCode .NET



Specifically for the .NET libraries: new development will be done on the

[PeopleWare GitHub repositories], and all new stable releases will also

be published as packages on the [NuGet Gallery].



We believe in Design By Contract and have good experience with

[Microsoft Code Contracts] and the related tooling.  As such, our packages

always include Contract Reference assemblies.  This allows you to also

benefit as a user from the contracts that are already included in the

library code.



The packages also include both the pdb and xml files, for debugging symbols

and documentation respectively.  In the future we might look into using

symbol servers.
