Thanks for sharing – I don't know why but sometimes I *think* things need to be difficult or confusing. After watching this I realize I spend too much time forward thinking and fail to achieve the “make it pass as EASILY as can be” – which in hindsight has helped to falter my rhythm and lead to abandoning TDD.

Thanks for the smack on the head!

Excellent video, but didn't you skip requirement 3 entirely? I believe your code only allows for a single delimiter character within a numberstring instead of allowing different delimiters within the same string. I only see that because I've started doing this kata recently and step 3 adds significant complexity (the Split method doesn't help anymore – unless I'm missing something). I've had to go old-school with the string manipulation and add tests for multiple digit numbers.

Scott,

I use TestDriven.Net and I have mapped the Alt+T and Alt+R keys to this. It can then run the NUnit tests in Visual Studio. The out of the box Unit Testing framework will only work with MSTest test as you have found.

Are you running NUnit tests within VS IDE?? If so how do you enable this because running VS2008 and NUnit 2.5.3 the and decorating my test fixture with NUnits [TestFixture] attribute the test option in the IDE remains disabled?

[...] Andrew Woodward has recorded his version of the kata where he avoids using the mouse for the whole exercise so I tried to avoid using the mouse as well and it was surprisingly difficult! [...]

Do you have a ZIP of the solution you could include for us to refer to?

There’s a keyboard jedi program floating around that shows all your keystrokes – would be very useful for this kind of thing so others can see the keystrokes you are using.
