<p>I really enjoyed the screencast and I learned quite a bit in the process. I’m still learning about BDD and the “pending” behaviors was particularly interesting.</p>
<p>Hope to see more!

Additionally, I tried to make it interesting to a wider audience by really showcasing RSpec’s strengths, and trying to capture some of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test-driven_development" title="Test-driven development - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia">red-green-refactor</a> rhythm. NetBeans does work really well for this, but in my mind, the star of the show is <a href="http://rspec.info/" title="RSpec-1.1.3: Overview">RSpec</a>.</p>
<p>I’m pleased with how it turned out considering I hadn’t done this sort of thing before. Special thanks to Cindy Church for putting it all together, including all the production: setup, recording, editing, even the music!</p>
