I'm (manually) testing a RESTful API that makes full use of GET/POST/PUT/DELETE methods. Rather than using cURL on the command line to quickly test different input options, it would be handy if there were a windows GUI application to make this easier. Does anything like that exist? ...
Is it possible to mock an EF model so that I can test code which uses the model classes without getting rid of LINQ to Entities code strewn throughout my project? Or will it be necessary to set up a test database for the model to hit instead? ...
I'm writing a test for a piece of code that has an IOException catch in it that I'm trying to cover. The try/catch looks something like this: try { oos = new ObjectOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(cacheFileName)); } catch (IOException e) { LOGGER.error("Bad news!", e); } finally { The easiest way seems to make FileOutputStrea...

Hi, I really want to be able to go: (in C++) assert( num > 0, "The number must be greater than zero!"); In C# XNA, they have a method that does exactly this: Debug.Assert( num > 0, "The number must be greater than zero!"); Is there some way to do this so that the runtime gives me a meaning full error not just "an assertion failed" ...
We're testing a web application using SilkTest 2008R2, and need to check the value of the cookies periodically. We currently use javascript via the ExecLine function: BrowserPage.ExecLine ("alert(document.cookie.split(';').join('/n'))", TRUE) and then just read the text off the resulting popup. This is somewhat errorprone. Is there...
In the bad old days of interactive console applications, Don Libes created a tool called Expect, which enabled you to write Tcl scripts that interacted with these applications, much as a user would. Expect had two tremendous benefits: It was possible to script interactions that otherwise would have had to be repeated by hand, tediousl...
First, some background: I will have to work on code for a JSP that will demand a lot of code fixing and testing. This JSP will receive a structure of given objects, and render it according to a couple of rules. What I would like to do, is to write a "Test Server" that would read some mock data out of a fixtures file, and mock those obj...

What I would like to do is capture an object that's in memory to disk for testing purposes. Since it takes many steps to get to this state, I would like to capture it once and skip the steps. I realize that I could mock these objects up manually but I'd rather "record" and "replay" real objects because I think this would be faster. Edi...
As I'm developing unit tests for my django application I find myself running manage.py test over and over and over again. I'm using a MySQL backend and have many models in the project, so the ramp up time to create all of the test databases is about 30 seconds. How can I use make each unit test faster by keeping the database tables c...
I will be frequently running testcases for my django project. But one fine day it occured to me that django actually checks the settings.DATABASE_NAME db actual existence while running testcases. Why is this so. All I thought was django will be taking the settings.DATABASE_NAME and creates a test db called 'test_' + settings.DATABASE_NAM...

The appointment mirrors the functionality available for a Google Calendar appointment (...

Keeping my production db(postgresql)in mind I tried building a query which uses "coalesce". But sqllite3 doesn't recognize this. How do I get pass this. I can use postgresql_ps...
Does anyone have any suggestions on what Model Based Testing Tools to use? Is Spec Explorer/SPEC# worth it's weight in tester training? What I have traditionally done is create a Visio Model where I call out the states and associated variables, outputs and expected results from each state. Then in a completely disconnected way, I data d...
