I want to measure the performance and scalability of my DB application. I am looking for a tool that would allow me to run many SQL statements against my DB, taking the DB and script (SQL) file as arguments (+necessary details, e.g. host name, port, login...).

I'm programming in python on windows and would like to accurately measure the time it takes for a function to run. I have written a function "time_it" that takes another function, runs it, and returns the time it took to run. def time_it(f, *args): start = time.clock() f(*args) return (time.clock() - start)*1000...
I have created an MS Access 2003 application, set up as a split front-end/back-end configuration, with a user group of about five people. The front end .mdb sits on a network file server, and it contains all the queries, forms, reports, and VBA code, plus links to all the tables in the back end .mdb and some links to ODBC data sources li...

The question is...how can I arrange these so that I can setup the class so I can fake a repos or executing process?? This is a simplified ...
I signed up for the iPhone Developer Program (now awaiting approval) using a new Apple ID, this ID is different from the one I used on my iPhone for iTunes/AppStore purchase. I only have one iPhone and want to use the same device for app testing and day-to-day phone use. I can not try out yet but I guess iTunes/XCode will use the new A...
I'm developing an ASP.NET website that will need to support non-flash users. In case the user's browser doesn't support Flash, or they have Flash disabled, I'd like to download a large splash image to the browser. However I don't want to waste bandwidth downloading it if the Flash does render properly. So is it possible to test, from ...
What I mean by this, is that sometimes architects look to simplify and improve testability, at the expense of other important forces. For example, I'm reviewing a very complicated application, made so by extensive use of design patterns that overly favor testing, e.g. IoC, DI, AOP, etc... Now, typically I like these things, but this ...
I'm writing some test cases, and I've got a test case that is using Mock objects. I need to check to see if two class methods are called from another class method. Here's what I've done: First I generated the Mock: Mock::generate('Parser'); Then, inside my test I called: $P = new MockParser(); $P->expectOnce('loadUrl', array('http:...
I'm developing a Java Web Application that runs a series of financial calculations for a user. When a financial calculation is run, roughly 30 different inputs are used to calculate 15 different values over a maximum of 18 years (max 15*18 expected values). As you can tell, there is a considerable amount of information to compute and val...
When writing test cases which are supposed to have 100% branch coverage, is it ok to have one of your cases that covers two branches and another case that only covers one. note: we are assuming there are only three branches in the code. edit: 3 branches means three basic if statments that are all seperate to each other within a body of...

Is there any simple mechanism for overriding Django settings for a unit test? I have a manager on one of my models that returns a specific number of the latest objects. The number of objects it returns is defined by a NUM_LATEST setting. This has the potential to make my tests fail if someone were to change the setting. How can I ove...

I want to reuse some cucumber steps but can't seem to find the right way. I want to write a step like: Given /^I login with (.*) credentials$/ |type| # do stuff with type being one of "invalid" or "valid" end But then have another step like: Given /^I login successfully$ # call "Given I login with valid credentials" end So in ...

I honestly cannot follow the mechanism given in the MSDN article Using a Summary Results File with a Generic Test. It is clear how to use xsd, and again it is clear how to wrap my existing application in a generic test. But right in between, the article says; Next, edit the program you will wrap as your generic test. Using the clas...
