Hi Cabe,

I like the Node idea. Not enough attention is paid to setting up your testing when you begin a new project.

As soon as you define what you plan to build, you should immediately ask yourself, "How am I going to verify that it works?"

I see a lot of the projects begun here at E14 do not show the testing process in detail. We need to do more of that type of demonstrations so that the beginners learn how to think through the entire engineering process before the run off to build neat things. Usually testing is ignored until your build is done, then its too late to realize that you need a lot of signal/event generation devices or software to establish a reasonable tesing environment for your new build.

Good post.
