At my workplace we are thinking about buying TestComplete but after using the evaluation version, I'm not sure if it will do us any good. Creating tests seems to be a lot of work and my boss is not entirely convinced that it's worth it. On the other hand, we don't have any unit tests, so we desperatly need some automated testing. Wh...
Would you be aware of any tools(preferably free) or browser plugins that would allow me to easily determine the styling properties of an element on the web page. For example it could be a tool that would import all the styling information from the css files associated with the page and presented it as an in-line styling. Eventually so...

Does anyone know if there's a way to get Eclipse to do a "Save all" before building java code? (I don't use the "Build automatically" option, I'm talking when you use "Ctrl+B" to do a build all) I've dug thru the preferences, and can't seem to find anything, so I figured I'd check the hive mind at Stack Overflow just in case. I'm usin...
I'm curious to hear about people's experiences with distributed version control in a corporate environment. Specifically: Was it difficult to gain adoption? Now that it's in place, is it well liked? What 'model' are you using (hub & spoke? Something else?) Allowing you use hub & spoke, are there any discipline problems with pushing t...

I was thinking about a tool to inspect objects at runtime, primarily for reverse-engineering and I'm wondering if such a thing exists. The way I was thinking about it was that you had two views, a graph of objects and a class list. From the class list, you can select a class and see the instances of it, either in a list or in the graph...
Hi all, I have been searching for some kind of tool to analyse log files that are in custom format (my own format for my own program for example). There are many tools that are designed for web-traffic log analysing, but I haven't found suitable tools for custom log files. I'd be happy to find one where I can collect for example all th...

Hi all, I'm working on a personal project and I'd love to be able to say at the end:"I've spend X hours on this project". Now one way to solve this, is to use a manual time tracker (worked from: to:). I've ran into problems with this, because I only manage to use it consistently for the first week or two. So I'd like to track developme...

Our build is annoyingly slow. It's a Java system built with Ant, and I'm running mine on Windows XP. Depending on the hardware, it can take between 5 to 15 minutes to complete. Watching overall performance metrics on the machine, as well as correlating hardware differences with build times, indicates that the process is I/O bound. It a...
I am looking for an easy-to-use db schema drawing tool for Mac. No reverse-engineering nor db schema generation needed, just a simple drawing tool with pre-designed db-related graphical components (boxes, relations-arrows, PK/FK symbols ...) Do you know any (non-commercial) good tool ? ...
My company sells developer tools. As a developer myself, it is hard not to assume that what is important to me is important to many other developers: In our case, the thing we lack the most is time. So, I'm willing to spend money on things like Microsoft Team Foundation Server which integrates well with Visual Studio and handles variou...

I'm playing with a PHP weblog application using a shared hosting service, as a part of my PHP learning process. The service provider has a typical LAMP environment with remote ssh access. Vim has been my best friend in exploring the PHP code. However, I found it sometimes hard to trace stuff in the code in case of error. For example, s...

Hi ... It seems like something like this should exist, but I have never heard of it and would find such a utility to be incredibly useful. Many times, I develop applications that have a database backed - SQL Server or Oracle. During development, end users of the app are encouraged to test the site - I can verify this by looking for entr...
