MS Test Report Generator
Architected and implemented a utility to read MS Test XML results files and generate formatted HTML reports.
- Used XDocument model to create a consistent data access abstraction for HTML and XML, allowing fluid translation between persistence formats.
- Created a tiered architecture using data access, domain, and service layers to allow application extension to other storage and reporting formats.
- Made use of IRepository pattern to facilitate persistence ignorance.
- Took advantage of flexible design to provide nearly 100% code coverage with unit tests.
Netsort
Collaborated on software interface for industrial mail sorters.
- Designed interoperation modules for exporting sortation data into accounting modules.
- Created and maintained a scheme for digital rights and subscription management.
- Analyzed database schema to improve indexing and retrieval efficiency.
No Exception
Implemented an open source library in C# for providing the no-throw guarantee.
- Created wrappers for common C# classes and literals that guaranteed no throwing of exceptions.
- Designed classes to supply customizable, sensible defaults for behavior and return values in situations where exceptions would have occurred.
- Designed the implementation to be extensible in that others can build on the no-throw guarantee classes to implement no-throw in more specific situations.
OBD Reader
Created a utility to allow lay-people to read car OBDII
- Collaborated on a tiered architecture for taking information received from a serial port connection and propagating results up to a visually appealing UI.
- Followed Rational Unified Process development model.
