Beyond Test Driven Development: Behaviour Driven(video.google.com)

submitted by Maruis(65) 6 years ago

Description: Google TechTalks March 17, 2006 Dave Astels Dave Astels (co-author of "A Practical Guide to eXtreme Programming" and author of Jolt Award winning "Test-driven Development: A Practical Guide") has over 2 decades of experience in the software field, most of that involved with object-oriented technologies and techniques. Dave has been studying, practicing, teaching, evangelising, and coaching XP and Agile Processes since 1998. Dave's experience ranges from embedded process control systems to consumer products (both consumer electronics and shrinkwrapped software) to energy trading systems. Dave is an independant software consultant specializing in the areas of agile process, programming practices, and object design/architecture. Dave is one of the thought leaders in the area of TDD, and now BDD. ABSTRACT Test Driven Development (TDD) has become quite well known. Many developers are getting benefit from the practice. But it is possible that we can get even more value. A new practice is getting attention these days: Behaviour Driven Development (BDD). BDD removes all vestiges of testing and instead focuses on specifying the behaviour desired in the system being built. This talk will be focus on Ruby and will introduce a new BDD framework: rSpec. The ideas, however, are language independent. read more...

Google Calendar API(code.google.com)

submitted by gavinjoyce(25.7k) 6 years, 1 month ago

Google Calendar allows client applications to view and update calendar events in the form of Google data API ("GData") feeds. Your client application can use the Google Calendar data API to create new events, edit or delete existing events, and query for events that match particular criteria. There are many possible uses for the Calendar data API. For example, you can create a web front end for your group's calendar that uses Google Calendar as a back end. Or you can generate a public calendar for Google Calendar to display, based on your organization's event database. Or you can search relevant calendars to display a list of upcoming events on those calendars. read more...

Uncrippling Windows XP's IIS 5.1(codinghorror.com)

submitted by JGregory(375) 6 years, 1 month ago

Windows XP's IIS 5.1 is thoroughly crippled out of the box. It allows only one root website, and a maximum of ten concurrent connections to that website. Microsoft really, really doesn't want us hosting slashdot.org on our XP Pro box. These limits are so aggressive that they can get in the way of legitimate localhost development. But there are workarounds. read more...
