submitted by iftekharahmedamit(530) 2 years, 9 months ago

It is a great pleasure to announce our new product line - Telerik Extensions for ASP.NET MVC. As the name suggest we are building a new UI component suite targeting the ASP.NET MVC framework. The new product line will not be based on RadControls for ASP.NET Ajax nor will it depend on ASP.NET Ajax or ASP.NET WebForms. No page lifecycle, ScriptManager dependency, viewstat... read more...

Unit Testable HttpModule and HttpHandler - Kazi Manzur Rashid's Blog(weblogs.asp.net)

submitted by iftekharahmedamit(530) 3 years, 2 months ago

With the new System.Web.Abstraction namespace we can now easily write unit testable HttpModule and HttpHandler. In this post, I will show you how to write unit testable HttpModule and HttpHandler. Prior the release of System.Web.Abstraction the problem with unit testing of these web infrastructural items is HttpContext, it is sealed, no way to mock it with Rhino or Moq. The only option is to create the wrapper objects of these non-mockable objects but it has a very long tail like HttpRequest, HttpResponse, HttpSessionState, HttpServerUtility etc etc. And this is the exact thing that the System.Web.Abstraction provides, all wrappers around the non-mockable objects of HttpContext. But still, both the HttpModule and HttpHandler depends upon the original HttpContext which I hope will change in ASP.NET 4.0. till then we need to create a super layer for making it Unit Testable. read more...

Recently, in KiGG/DotNetShoutout we have integrated Twitter, nothing complex, very basic thing like when a story is submitted or appears in the front page it will broadcast in Twitter and like our feed it will post the short url of the original story (Cant resist to do some shameless marketing for DotNetShoutout). Since it is a new requirement, initially I have modified the StoryService constructor to include the twitter client as a new argument and use it after the story is added in the database, the code is something like the following:... read more...

submitted by iftekharahmedamit(530) 3 years, 2 months ago

submitted by iftekharahmedamit(530) 3 years, 3 months ago

As mention in my previous post that I will be discussing the technical side of **KiGG**. So this is the beginning and it will be a multi-part series. I will try to put as much detail as possible, do let me know if I missed anything.
