The beauty of jMock 2

Today I had the pleasure to play with the current CVS version of jMock 2.

Most important changes in jMock 2:

Integration testing new bean scopes in Spring 2.0

The last few days i’ve tried to find a bug in a bean that had session scope, so I attempted to do some integration testing with the new bean scopes. I’ve searched the spring forums, but I found no convenient way to do this.

Then I had a look at the RequestContextFilterTests (RequestContextFilter or RequestContextListener is needed for doing these new scope things). I thought there should be a way to get some integration testing with the filter. And it seems to work nicely!

Jasper 2 compiler troubles

Since I’ve played with integrating a servlet engine (Jetty5) into my unit tests I ran into problems when it comes to jsp page compiling.

Web application and acceptance testing with selenium

Selenium is a great framework for testing the user interface of web applications. I’m very impressed by the simplicity of it and the yet powerful features it has.

Make your software worth reading – with fluent interfaces

Fluent interfaces can definitly make your software worth reading.

View objects

At work we’re currently evaluating development methods for our new product. After using the great XT framework developed by Sergio Bossa, I came up to google his blog and found this interesting idea of building view objects.
