Turning shaky code into future-proof software

Over the past years, we moved more and more towards web-oriented architectures, connecting to services in order to provide information. Along with the evolution of testing tools and development methodologies we can build crazily robust software. However, it happens that sometimes we will not build unit tests because of project constraints. Those reasons often go from time pressure on a project to laziness but I am not here to judge.

C# dynamic interface implementation at runtime

Posted in Development, and Professional life

Some context first

How did I come to write a class allowing dynamic interface implementation in the first place? Ever had to work on a huge company project over the weekend? Because it is the weekend you pick up fixes what should be easy configuration changes. Then you think it will take you only a couple of hours then you will be off to the gym. I thought that yesterday and boy I mislead myself, much mislead indeed. Basically, I had to update a couple of big projects to remove fields that are null from the JSON response. All of that listening to stuff like the Ding Dong Song, Purple Lamborghini and Slipknot’s Psychosocial. On the first project I had to add a little line to have that working, so the second one should be the same right? I actually thought I would grab another task before leaving that improvised hackathon.
