This past Saturday I presented Rhino Mocks - The Basics & Not So Basics.. at Calgary Tech Fest. I think the presentation went fairly well considering it was my first time doing this particular presentation and only my second time ever presenting. I did end up running out of time but there was quite a bit I was trying to cover. The actual code from my presentation is available here. I'm thinking of doing a webcast of this presentation in the future. Though I do have a few other things on the go so at this point that's not a 100% guarantee.
In terms of the event there were a few issues that we'll contribute to it being a first time event. Having an event with food was definitely a nice thing but I would have given up the food for wireless internet access.
I ended up taking in two sessions given by Gerard Leszaros who is the author of the large but very good book xUnit Test Patterns. The first presentation was on agile stories and the second was on test smells. Both presentations ended up being longer then the allotted time but nevertheless they were both very well done. They definitely were the highlight of my trip to Calgary.
