			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In this period I&#8217;m teaching Test Driven Development in various teams in which this practice is unknown. During the course I use some non-Microsoft tools (mbUnit, RinhoMock, TestDriven.NET, &#8230;) and I see that one of the big obstacle is the use of these tools.</p>
<p>I ask myself why and the answer could be double.</p>
<p>The first answer is that the programmers are lazy and they don&#8217;t want to learn the use of new tools that are not always so easy to install and learn.</p>
<p>The second answer is that a lot of tools are not well integrated in the IDE and take time to get confident with their usage.</p>
<p>I think that for a massive use of these practices (Test Driven Development, Continuous Integration, the use of a Source Control System) the various supplier of these tools must do a little step to that lazy developers to give them the needed integration that a Microsoft developer wants. One alternative solution is to wait that Microsoft release some tools that are usable for these practices (and not too expensive!) and for what I see Visual Studio 2010 is on the right way.</p>
