The other day I posted about “Automated functional tests using Watin and MSpec” which we do at Jobping as a spike to automate our functional tests on our ASP.NET MVC 2 site. Yesterday evening I was facing an issue in my base class WebBaseSpec which led to really strange side effects. Basically when I was running one unit test alone it was Green, running all or more than one unit test will fail miserably with the well known STA issue of Watin. So I thought that I had an issue with the ReSharper MSpec pl... (more)

Marks asp.net / mvc blog: Set Default Outgoing Repository with hg (Mercurial)

http://markkemper1.blogspot.com/ 1127 days, 11 hours, 39 minutes ago

Firstly if you are new to Mercurial check out http://hginit.com/ its a brilliant little Mercurial tutorial. When creating a hg repository locally, at some point later, I often need to set the default outgoing repository to push out my changes. Creating projects locally using hg (hg init) without cloning from anther location is ideal for playing with new projects locally and having your source code version controlled. There are so many times where I spend about 10 minutes going down a path the... (more)

With my Quickly Trim all your model's string properties post causing quite a stir (2 comments), I have decided to post a follow up and actually test the speed. For the actual benchmarking I used a slightly modified version of this nice little class http://www.yoda.arachsys.com/csharp/Benchmark.cs, which I found from this page http://www.yoda.arachsys.com/csharp/benchmark.html I tested 4 different methods that use reflection to trim all the string properties on an object and the 'long hand' m...

Marks asp.net / mvc blog: Jobping Open Source URL Shortener. Goes to Version 0.5

http://markkemper1.blogspot.com/ 1132 days, 6 hours, 31 minutes ago

We have updated our url shortener for Jobping. jobp.in has moved along to Version 0.5. While maintaining as little features as possible! Since the initial version we have placed a restriction(web.configurable) on the domain names that the shortener will shorten. We did this so only domains under jobping.com would be processed by the shortener. We wanted to maintain the integrity of the jobp.in domain. With this in place you can be sure that if you click a link shortened by http://jobp.in it will alw... (more)

I am conducting a spike for a couple of evening on the way we might automate our functional tests at Jobping.

Marks asp.net / mvc blog: Quickly Trim all your model's string properties

http://markkemper1.blogspot.com/ 1134 days, 8 hours ago

While developing a internal application for http://www.jobping.com using ASP.NET MVC 2 I had the old problem of trimming all string properties on the model before saving to the database. My first reaction was to start adding trim() everywhere but this causes problems when properties are null. Checking for null pushed me over the edge and I quickly came up with some code to do what I needed via reflection. The code is below, it will quickly trim any string properties on your model object (n... (more)
