jQuery Webinar
Thursday, August 4th, 2011
I’ll be doing a webinar for DevelopMentor tomorrow at 11 AM Pacific. The title is “Spice Up Your Web Applications with a Dash of jQuery!”. I’ll be enhancing a simple MVC application so that it “feels” a bit slicker for your users. If you know JavaScript and jQuery, it’s basic stuff, but the goal is [...]
An Even More Useful Fiddler Bookmarklet
Tuesday, March 29th, 2011
It’s actually the same bookmarklet as the one I wrote about before, but this time it’s in the form of a link that makes it easier to add to your browser: fiddler-ify
jQuery Deferreds
Monday, March 28th, 2011
I’m absolutely loving the new Deferred objects in jQuery 1.5 and am using them heavily in a new project at work. I just spent a bit of time trying to figure out why they weren’t working the way I was expecting them to, actually having to step into the jQuery code to realize my mistake. [...]
Asserting without Equals
Saturday, October 30th, 2010
Arnis suggested that implementing Equals just for NUnit was wrong so I thought I’d try doing without it. The CollectionAssert.AreEqual method accepts an optional IComparer implementation. If specified, that will be used instead of Equals. So I put together a class called PartComparer. Since I switched to comparing the state of the objects outside their [...]
I fail at TDD?
Friday, October 29th, 2010
I actually think I’m pretty good at TDD. Every now and then I get reminded that I’m not as good as I think I am. I’ve been working on a new project (an implementation of the Mustache template language in C# that I’m calling Nustache) and have been having a lot of fun with it. [...]
Why won’t my iterator throw?
Wednesday, October 27th, 2010
I ran into a spot of confusion last night doing some TDD on a method that returns an IEnumerable<T>. I was using multiple yield return statements in it which made the method an iterator and not just a normal method. Even though I know how iterators work, I don’t use them enough to remember their [...]
New BehaveN Release
Friday, September 3rd, 2010
This is a minor, bug fix release. You can see the changes here. I’ve also updated the wiki with some more documentation.
BehaveN
Sunday, July 11th, 2010
I’ve been using a Cucumber-inspired BDD framework for .NET called BehaveN at work for the past year. Today, I just released the next major version. There’s a little documentation on the wiki, including a tutorial, but there’s a lot left that I haven’t documented yet. I’ll be getting more and more documentation up as time [...]
Autotest for Python
Friday, June 18th, 2010
I recently went looking for an autotest equivalent for Python. This question on StackOverflow pointed me to autonose. It wasn’t that easy to install using easy_install since one of its dependencies (snakefood) failed to install so I had to do that manually. Unfortunately, autonose has a few issues, especially when running on Windows. Since it [...]
