ValueObjects
A ramble against objects containing DateStart & DateEnd pairs of properties.

DateStart&TimeSpanorDay/Month only in DateTime, etc.decimal Money&string Currencydecimal X/Yand/orWidth/Height

A small simple object, like money or a date
range, whose equality isn’t based on identity.

A concurrent test runner from the Andromeda galaxy.

So I tried it out and yup, AVA delivered.
