Software developer and entrepreneur from Switzerland. Tue, 22 Sep 2009. This post is part of the Setting up a full stack for web testing. The initial setup of the testing framework is very crucial. You need to make it as easy and fast as possible for all developers to run the tests. You also need to make sure those tests are executed automatically even when developers become too lazy. That second part I’ll cover in the continuous integration post at a later stage. I recommend you start by just adding a.

Software developer and entrepreneur from Switzerland. Fri, 13 Nov 2009. This Python on the Toilet issue is also available as PDF. Is a Python standard for how web servers can interact with web frameworks. It’s one of my favorite standards: it’s simple yet very powerful. To write a WSGI. Web application you only need to create one function. Def my app(environ, start response): start response(200 OK, [(Content-Type, text/plain)]) return repr(environ). The function receives a. Which is a good read. Slides f...

Software developer and entrepreneur from Switzerland. Wed, 26 Aug 2009. Is one of those technologies I’ve heard so often that I got tired of it. But lately I’ve become more interested in one aspect of the whole Semantic Web: graph data. Graph databases are basically one of the many different ways to store data – something which is currently being hyped under the awful name “NoSQL”. So much so that Neo4J. One of the well-known graph databases, even uses that term in their title now.

Software developer and entrepreneur from Switzerland. KeePass for password management. Fri, 30 Sep 2011. I have a simple password policy: every account gets its own password. To manage this I store them in a password manager. When switching to Windows. Agents that store their passwords in the Keychain. And for non-integrated applications, getting a password out is relatively easy using a simple keyboard shortcut. That is topped off with secure notes for credit card information and similar. Using it is ve...

Software developer and entrepreneur from Switzerland. Paris: There is an App for that. Thu, 27 May 2010. I spent the past weekend in Paris and tried to go paperless with the iPhone. At the same time I wanted to keep data roaming deactivated. So before the trip I researched some offline applications to make the best out of this vacation. And was very surprised by the selection of very good apps that do not need permanent Internet access. I’ll quickly introduce the apps I used. OffMaps compiles that POI.

JavaScript testing - Patrice's Weblog
http://weblog.patrice.ch/2010/02/10/javascript-testing.html
Software developer and entrepreneur from Switzerland. Wed, 10 Feb 2010. This post about JavaScript testing is part of the Setting up a full stack for web testing. JavaScript tests are sufficiently special to deserve a post outside of unit. Testing. You need a special set of tools to write these tests. But then again for JavaScript the usual split between unit and functional tests is still applicable. So what I wrote about those two topics is also relevant here. Personally I only use Selenium RC, so I won...
