I'm trying to write a test suite for a compiler (LLVM) and it works perfectly fine on every platform except for Windows. On Windows I get the "critical-error-handler" message box which stops the tests indefinitely. This problem makes it very difficult to test because, with compilers, a problem often means invalid code on the assembly l...
I'm debugging a really weird problem with a mod_wsgi-deployed application resulting in Django/Apache (not yet known which) giving status 500 errors to some users instead of the correct 404. I want to exclude Apache from the debugging environment to determine which part of the setup is at fault and send my requests manually to the WSGI ha...
I'm creating some tests for an ad server, and I want to test the validity / correctness of the returned ads. For this I would (from an assertion script) like to get the image link, and then retrieve the image and do some checks (width/height/format/does it exist, etc) Has someone done this before? I'm able to parse the link from the r...

What is the quickest way to isolate the source of an error amongst an ordered list of potential sources? For example, given a list of column mappings, and one of those column mappings is incorrect, what debugging technique would lead you to most quickly identify which mapping is invalid? (By most quickly, I mean, which approach would r...
I have a number of tests that run against a MySQL database which is pre-loaded with schemas and example data from a set of SQL files. Some of these tests, during their run, also create new data in the database. Normally, tests are responsible for cleaning up after themselves (and thus not polluting the database environment for other tes...

Hi, It's easy enough in EasyMock to do: EasyMock.expect(service.methodCall()); but I noticed that this does not test the order in which I execute the calls, which in a case that I am trying to test is very important. Is there anyway to do this with EasyMock? ...

Yesterday I was reading about debugging techniques and found Valgrind to be really interesting. It seems to use techniques from dynamic code analysis. And I followed a link from the original reference to something else called Path Profiling. I tried Googling but I guess I am using the wrong terms to search for a good reference on these ...

I have a set of model objects that have a public IsVisible boolean property. All I need to do is find if at least one of the set has that value set to TRUE. In other words, if I have 10,000 objects but the second one is true, I don't need to spin through the other 9,998. I already have my answer. Now I know I could write my own itera...

Hello, Is there an easy way to benchmark a piece of software across a wide range of processors? The software I am looking to benchmark is a piece of an SSL Library - I'm looking to test the performance of some of the algorithms as hardware changes. Because I don't personally have the wide range of physical processors which I would li...
