A friend of mine has put together a set of documents which talk about do-it-yourself dependency-inject. Being that I am a fan of DI and how it helps with testability I wanted to share it with you. It is a good read for anyone interested in getting better at DI.

Open project blog/tdd/01_Calculator in Eclipse.
It should be set up to run all tests every time you modify a file.

You may [...]
