Towards Code Correctness: Integrating Software Contracts and Unit Testing

May 18th, 2012

We all agree that writing tests is helpful, recommended and even sexy. However, unless you associate it with some test-driven design methodology, writing tests risks being an end in itself. On one hand you have the classes to test; on the other hand, you have classes that promise to test other classes. And nothing in the middle that guarantees that tests are appropriate and meaningful. An approach that creates the environment for a much more effective refactoring, while not excluding unit testing, is based on software contracts. A software contract defines the terms and conditions for each method in each class. That gives you an optional run time checking mechanism as well as concrete guidance on how to refactor when you have to. Software contracts are not a new concept in software, but only now they have a widespread implementation in .NET. Join Dino Esposito as he shows you why you should look seriously at software contracts—Code Contracts in the .NET jargon—and what’s the appropriate angle and perspective for that.

                    How to Use the Solver Tool in Excel

                    April 22nd, 2012

                    In this tutorial, I introduce you to the powerful SOLVER Tool in Excel, Solver is an “Add-in” program in Excel. It is easy to “activate” as I demonstrate in this video. The “Keys” to understanding how to effectively use SOLVER are: 1) Determine the “Target Cell” – which will return the result that you want SOLVER to produce. This cell MUST contain a FORMULA! 2) The “By Changing cells” that SOLVER will work with – These cells MUST feed into the TARGET CELL! 3) The CONSTRAINTS that you establish for SOLVER to observe as it finds a solution. I think that you will enjoy my explanation of how to use this powerful and complex tool to generate the “real world” results that you are looking for in Excel.

                            Link: www.teamviewer.com TeamViewer has a freeware version of its program that allows you to remotely connect to other PCs. It’s a great tool that I live by, and one of the main reasons why I love it is to remote control other PCs on my home network! See the tutorial to learn more! Youtube tutorial request form spreadsheets.google.com More links and our wiki in the GameDexterity Channel! Other Misc Trivia Info: 1) I realize the tutorial is somewhat “short”. I tell it how it is. I save no time for long winded explanations. 2) If it sounds like I am rushing, well, I am. Fact is people enjoy shorter tutorial videos. If you are not one of those, sorry, learn to deal with it. I cannot win. People complain if videos are short, and if videos are long. It’s so hard to reach a compromise with the Youtube community. *sigh* 3) I use TeamViewer 6 primarily to do file transfer, and to check up on remote torrent downloads. I also used it more times than I can count to remote connect to gamers around the world to fix their port forwarding issues on their router. Isn’t that what my port forwarding tutorial video is for?!

                                                      Invited Talk given by Kent Beck of Facebook, Inc., at the 2011 USENIX Federated Conferences Week, held June 14-17, 2011, in Portland, OR. Abstract: As deployment cycles shrink, what constitutes effective software engineering changes radically. Practices that bring improvement to a quarterly release cycle can be fatal with an hourly release cycle. This talk outlines the changes required of software engineering and organization at different cycle times: quarterly, monthly, weekly, daily, and hourly. Speaker Bio: Kent Beck is the founder and director of Three Rivers Institute (TRI). His career has combined the practice of software development with reflection, innovation, and communication. His contributions to software development include patterns for software, the rediscovery of test-first programming, the xUnit family of developer testing tools, and Extreme Programming. He currently divides his time between writing, programming, and coaching. Beck is the author/co-author of Implementation Patterns, Extreme Programming Explained: Embrace Change 2nd Edition, Contributing to Eclipse, Test-Driven Development: By Example, Planning Extreme Programming, The Smalltalk Best Practice Patterns, and the JUnit Pocket Guide. He received his BS and MS in Computer Science from the University of Oregon.

                                                            **READ DESCRIPTION – UPDATED Nov 2011** First download the debugging tools from either 2 locations.
