Hello folks. Today, I would like to write about something close to my heart recently. I’ve been fiddling with Packer, Windows and Vagrant these days. Trying to get a Windows box up in running is a pain in the arse though, so I thought I share my pain with you nice folks out there. Let’s begin. ...
Not a great many people know that I’m actually into Lock Picking as a hobby. This will not be a tutorial on how to do it, or I won’t really talk about how I do it; I would like to write about something completely different. So if you came here for that, here are a few very good resources: http://www.lockpicking101.com/ - Tutorials http://www.ukbumpkeys.com/collections/lock-picking - Tools ( UK ) http://www.reddit.com/r/lockpicking/ - Reddit For my post, click on. ...
Hello folks. A quick post about an interesting idea. I want to elaborate on a possibility to use the Strategy Design pattern. ...
Hello guys. I’d like to share a little something with you. It’s what I cooked up in Python to check an unknown number of content items in a web application. Basically the script runs from a script folder under Grails. It goes through all the configured folders where there is static content like images, javascript, css and so on and so forth. And then with curl it calls these items up in using their respective paths’....
Hello everybody. I’d like to explain a lot about a topic that is very near my heart. If your job is in an office you will understand this. Why offices? So why are we sitting together in one big place cramped up with 20-300 other people? Why bother the catering and the ventilation and what not to accommodate these people at one place? Why not just leave them be and let them work at home?...
Hello everybody. I’ve been messing around with sublime for some time now. And been using it to write entires and stuff. So here I was thinking why the hell I should not us it as my main blog entry writer. And being the curious guy I was I thought that creating a plugin that let’s you submit your post from your favorite editor is just the thing I need. So without any further ado here it is....
Hey folks. I find out something new about cucumber-jvm every day. If you want something that is executed after all of the tests have finished you must use the Java shutdownHook. It’s simple really you add in a block of code that can run right before the JVM quits. I know I know. It sounds awful but I found out that this is the actual way of doing this with java / cucumber....
Hello everybody. I would like to show you a gem today that I found out. Apparently there is no easy way to get to the name of an executing cucumber scenario in cucumber-jvm You can try something like that: @After //this is cucumbers @Afters public static void afterExecution(Scenario scenario) { logger.log("The status of the test is: " + scenario.getStatus()); } But that isn’t giving you too much now is it? And the API of scenario is as small as it can get....
Hello everybody. Today I would like to write about something I experienced over the years of being in the software industry. Some History I’ve been a tester for a long time now. I’ve been up and down and down and up. I struggled for a very long time until I became somebody who I am today. And I still have many things to learn ahead of me. I learned from many people....
Dear Readers. Today I want to talk to you about something I discovered over years of working and experience. Also something that I can see in the world repeating over and over again. Not just in Software business but also in History in Human nature in Physics and Systems. So let’s see what I’m talking about. What is Chaos? Chaos is a state of utter confusion. Chaos is the opposite of order....
