DevelopMentor Courses - Saturday, April 30, 2011 Using Reporters in Approval Tests Because of this, you might want to decorate your class or method with [UseReporter( typeof (FileLauncherReporter))] Comparing Results Of course, not only do ApprovalTests Reporters tell you the results, but also the results can help you determine what has changed since they last passed. Today I pushed new versions of ApprovalTests for both C# and Java to SourceForge. Updates include new capabilities around the Reporters feature set for ApprovalTests. These enhancements were driven by feature requests from Peik Aschan(@peikas). Why Use Reporters? png, *.html, html, *.mp3, DiffReporter.cs DevelopMentor Courses - Saturday, December 31, 2011 Concepts and Architecture of the STL There are no hands-on exercises, but participants are welcome to use their computers to experiment with the course material as it is presented. Participants will gain: An understanding of the architecture behind the STL, including its core components and concepts. Usage guidelines that explain how to avoid subtle STL correctness and performance traps. An understanding of the applications and limitations of STL allocators. Format: Lecture and question/answer. C++'s Standard Template Library (STL) is uniquely powerful and extensible, and it facilitates the creation of very efficient code. DevelopMentor Courses - Tuesday, March 1, 2011 |

My work in Cornwall, helping companies adopt Agile approaches to software development, is set to continue into the new year - so more jokey tweets about the Cornish Software Mines. hope to write more about this work - the benefits and what we’re learning in future. Oxford Innovation (who run the Grow Cornwall programme) have put out a press release about this. Allan Kelly's Blog - Sunday, December 18, 2011 Xanpan: refining the process Of course there are exceptions, of course there are other issues, of course they don’t cover every eventuality In my last blog entry I discussed a Xanpan board layout which allows for planned and unplanned work to co-exist in one workflow. Here is a picture of the board I had just put together with a team in Cornwall: This might be the perfect board layout for the team for ever. More likely it can be improved over time - in the words of Kevlin Henney , it is a Stable Intermediary Form. think of Xanpan boards like the Pompido centre in Paris , they externalise the plumbing.

| The Best from DevelopMentor | MORE | - The value of Pair Programming

Of course as always not every browser supports the new feature. There is a lot of new goodness in HTML 5 and one of these features is being able to drag a file from the Windows explorer into the browser and handling the drop event using JavaScript. If you are a GMail user you are probably familiar with this as GMail allows users to attach files to emails using this Drag&Drop style. This works just fine with the current versions of Chrome or FireFox though. The HTML page I am using is real simple and looks like this. 1: 2: 3: 4: HTML 5 Drag & Drop demo. 1: $( function () {. Enjoy! The Problem Solver - Thursday, October 13, 2011 - Easier Async for Silverlight Apps using MVVM
An example of where you might want to use the Notify method is if you have the need to prompt the user for input in the course of executing a long-running task on a background thread. It makes sense to execute long-running tasks on a background thread, in order to keep the UI responsive by not tying up the main thread. However, as is the case with other UI frameworks such as Windows Forms or WPF, you should not touch UI elements from worker threads. This has to do with how Windows apps process messages, which are always handled on the thread that created the visual element.

Of course if JavaScript is disabled Modernizr can’t add a css class to you must add the no-js class yourself. Yesterday I blogged about using the new Server-Sent Events or the EventSource object to send messages from the server to the client. But what happens if I try to do this in a browser that doesn’t support Server-Sent Events? These days that is no linger a recommended approach as browsers are updated frequently and keeping up to date base on browser versions would be a nightmare. better approach, and much more common these days. is feature detection. 2: // Good to go. 4: else {. The Problem Solver - Tuesday, November 8, 2011 - When did Scrum start loving project managers?
Indeed I once sat in on a course entitled “Agile Project Management” by a well known Scrum trainer. For example, take Martine Devos’ London Scrum Master Course , it is worth 14 PMI Professional Development units. Jeff Sutherland’s own Scrum Master course boast 16 PDUs (one assume these are PMI units although he doesn’t state so explicitly.) So, if the PMI are now crediting Scrum Master Courses, and the Scrum folks are making their courses compliant with PMI rules then one assumes that the two are reconciled. Note there is no role of project manager in Scrum. Allan Kelly's Blog - Wednesday, June 22, 2011 - Fire Programmers not using Source Control
They all agree on 1 thing: “ Use Source Control ” … Of course which source control is still up for debate. In our community development work we come across hundreds of good developers. Those developers rarely agree on anything. They ceaselessly debate the merits of Test Driven Development. They argue about why C# is better than Java, or Ruby, or VB. They relentlessly pontificate about the future of Cloud computing. What continues to confuse us is the lack of source control adoption in the wider development community. They are living in a bubble. Our industry moves incredibly fast. DevelopMentor Courses - Saturday, May 7, 2011 %>
