This topic covers the proposed theme for the PablosDaysofTDDOct3And4 event.

Purpose

The purpose of this theme is to try to keep all the presenters and attendees talking in a similar context to avoid confusion and to allow both presenters and attendees move from one topic to another without having to catch up on context.

Most developers are familiar with the requirements and workflow of authenticating a user via username/password login. So this context should generally be familiar and comfortable for everyone involve.

Base Application

To keep things simple, the application will be a basic Console application which prompts for a username and password and reports status back to the user via stdout (Console.WriteLine()).

For more details, see UserLoginApplication.

Specifications/Requirements

To appeal to the broadest set of attendees, we will use a simple requirements/specification format for determining which features/behavior this application will have. The major contexts are: "Login Attempt" and "Change Password". The later is there only in case we are able to get through all the first set.
