      <title>Mar 31: Acceptance Testing Toolbox by Bryan Liles</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;The next meeting of the NovaRUG will be held Tuesday, Mar 31st at the FGM headquarters from 6:30 PM to 9 PM. Pizza and soft drinks will be provided starting at 6:30. The presentation will start at 7 PM.

&lt;p&gt; Register Here (just take the poll so we know how much pizza to buy):

&lt;p&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Topic:&lt;/b&gt; Bryan will review his toolbox for acceptance testing Ruby web applications.   This presentation
will be a demonstration of how to get the most out of your acceptance tests.  Bryan will talk about Cucumber, Webrat, Webrat with Cucumber, Integrity, his environment and then share a list of other resources.

&lt;p&gt;
We have some T-shirts to give out (Radrails/RubyNation), and some Radrails books, too.

&lt;p&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Speaker:&lt;/b&gt; "Only write code to make your tests pass." A simple statement for many, but a way of life for Bryan Liles. Writing tests and blogging, speaking, and demonstrating everything associated is a passion that Bryan expends way too much time evangelizing. Bryan started his professional life as a Unix admin and has slowly realized that writing code was his passion, so now he spends all his time hacking on the latest and greatest technologies.
