S.O.L.I.D. is a collection of 5 programming principles that allow you to build larger applications, while keeping the code maintainable, flexible and, in general, with fewer bugs. The business world has enjoyed this in many languages for many years, but may seem impossible in Unity. Productive Edge explains what each of the five principles mean, along with examples, and most importantly, how to apply them in your own Unity coding.

This talk also covers two great features as part of S.O.L.I.D. First, the use of DLL's instead of Scripts (optional), which allow you to add Unit Tests via MSTest or NUnit. Normally, this is impossible because of Unity's object duality (.NET/C++) throwing errors outside of Unity, but this talk teaches you how to get around that. Second, how to implement a Dependency Injection system, similar to Ninject, but designed for Unity, without requiring the designers to understand DI programming.
