| The Latest from Jason Diamond | MORE | | I fail at TDD? If I’m using tools like NUnit, NCover, and NDepend, I should be able to catch my “mistakes&# pretty quickly. 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. This is the project I’m going to use as an example of how I fail at TDD. decided the tokens would be instances of a class called Part. It has a method named Scan. DevelopMentor Courses - Friday, October 29, 2010 Autotest for Python The Growl version uses the growlnotify tool, but that didn’t work with the version of growlnotify.exe that works on Windows. 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. It doesn’t use nose , but that’s OK, because I wasn’t using anything that required it. install.

Using Visual Studio’s External Tools feature, however, it’s almost as good as an add-in. set up an external tool with the appropriate arguments and it’s good to go for all of my projects. Please note that you must have a file from your tests project open or selected in Solution Explorer when you activate the tool or your AutoRunner instance will be watching the wrong DLL!

Jason Diamond - Sunday, September 27, 2009 | | The Best from Jason Diamond | MORE | | Verifying JavaScript with JSLint and Visual Studio To help keep ourselves in check, he’s made his JSLint tool available years ago, but I always found myself too lazy to copy/paste my script into the tool to verify it. Since I do the majority of my work on Windows machines, I’m fortunate enough to have a built-in scripting engine that can run JavaScript without having to install any extra tools. If you set it up as an external tool, you can run it against your current file and hit F8 (the key bound to Edit.GoToNextLocation , by default) to jump to each line an error occurred on. from the JSLint web site.

It came in really handy while working on this: I really need to click that “Activate Autocompletion&# button so I can give Joseph Albahari the money he deserves for creating such a useful tool. On my new project, I needed to split a method name up into its constituent parts. For Ruby programmers, this is easy: just split on underscores. For us.NET programmers, we need something a little fancier since we like to SquashOurMethodNamesTogetherLikeThis. Here’s a little regular expression that can do exactly that: (?<!^)(?=[A-Z]). <!^)(?=[A-Z]). A-Z]). <!^)(?=[A-Z])"); Jason Diamond - Saturday, August 15, 2009 - Autotest for Python

| The Latest from DevelopMentor | MORE | | Agile Clinic: Dear Allan, we have a little problem with Agile. m no fan of Jira, or any other electronic tool but most team use one so nothing odd so far. 'Consider this blog an Agile Clinic. On Friday an e-mail dropped into my mailbox asking if I could help. The sender has graciously agreed to let me share the mail and my advice with you, all anonymously of course… The sender is new to the team, new to the company, they are developing a custom web app for a client, i.e. they are an ESP or consultancy. the Developers work in sprints, estimating tasks in JIRA as they go. Sprints last three weeks, including planning, development and testing. Yikes! Allan Kelly's Blog - Sunday, April 28, 2013 A Roundup of MongoDB Management Tools Back in the early days, there really were no management tools analogous to RDBMS tools (e.g. It’s time to look around and see what management / monitoring tooling is around these days for MongoDB. Robomongo — is a shell-centric cross-platform open source MongoDB management tool (i.e. My take : Robomongo is definitely my current favorite management tool for MongoDB. or.PHP file on your server and you get a well rounded management tool. The lack of management tools was hurting MongoDB’s adoption in the early days. The news is good. Michael C. Kennedy's Weblog - Monday, April 22, 2013 Requirements and Specifications Having worked through this I conclude that BDD is an excellent specification tool. Now, while BDD and SbE may well give Developers first class specification tools these tools should not be mistaken for requirements tools and shouldn’t be used as such. 'As I was saying in my last blog, I’m preparing for a talk at Skills Matter entitled: “Business Analyst, Product Manager, Product Owner, Spy!” which I should just have entitled it “Requirements: Whose job are they anyway?” and so I’ve been giving a lot of thought to requirements. So I turned to my bookshelves…. nothing. Allan Kelly's Blog - Monday, April 15, 2013 | -
| The Best from DevelopMentor | MORE | - Building Windows Machines in Amazon EC2
All information, source code, and especially tools are provided as is and on a "use at your own risk" basis. Tags: Articles Tools In this article I'm going to give you a simple, step-by-step overview of how to create a Windows 2008 server image in Amazon's Elastic Cloud Compute (EC2) infrastructure. Now I must admit I'd rather have found a good tutorial on The Internets or even in a book. Feel free to send me any I missed. My experience is they are either dated or about Linux and so on. First, briefly why does one care about EC2? Here we go. Create an Account. Enable EC2 Features. Michael C. Kennedy's Weblog - Saturday, January 30, 2010 - The NoSQL Movement, LINQ, and MongoDB - Oh My!
The NoSQL movement asks the question: “Is the relational database (RDBMS) always the right tool for data storage and data access?”. You may have to run a transformation tool if you’re making radical data changes, but that’s true in SQL systems as well. To get started, download MongoDB the tools and server here: [link]. Generally I look down upon that sort of development, but for an admin tool it’s just fine. All information, source code, and especially tools are provided as is and on a "use at your own risk" basis. Insanity!” Flat files? Related classes? Michael C. Kennedy's Weblog - Thursday, April 22, 2010 - 11 Killer Open Source Projects I Found with NuGet
All information, source code, and especially tools are provided as is and on a "use at your own risk" basis. Articles ASP.NET NoSQL Open Source Tools Visual StudioSo maybe I'm late to the party, but I recently started playing with NuGet. It's a killer new way to find, install, maintain, and manage references to open source libraries in Visual Studio 2010. Plenty of people have written about it ( Phil Haack and Scott Hanselman for example). Let's just say you should learn about NuGet if you don't know it already. RazorEngine at [link]. YUI Compressor for.Net at [link]. Here you go. Michael C. Kennedy's Weblog - Wednesday, January 19, 2011 - A Roundup of MongoDB Management Tools

Power Tools making it even easier to do Code First development with an existing database. The EF team at Microsoft just release a first CTP of the EF 4.1 Guess it isn’t really code first in that case but database first I did a quick test with an existing database, Northwind to be exact, and it worked pretty well. The only gotcha is you have to make sure the EF4.1 assemblies are available in your project otherwise you will receive the exception below. Adding Ef4.1 is easy though, just download the installer and install them or even better, just add a package reference using NuGet. Enjoy! The Problem Solver - Thursday, May 19, 2011 %>
