Last month I started writing about the DevOps pipeline that I built out for a PHP project. Today I plan on filling it out a bit more. What I described last week is what many people consider a full CI Pipeline, executing unit tests, code coverage, and static analysis. I threw in a little more […]
I recently was put on a project where we are doing development for a website. There was already a large code, and we went in to add features in order to complete the site, and perform code refactoring when necessary. In order to accomplish this successfully, we decided to follow the SecureAgileTM, which involves ensuring […]
Problem with Default Validation While using Laravel to build a web application, I needed to perform custom validation on user input, such as a password parameter. By default, Laravel manages this through AJAX handled on the client side. However, I wanted a more robust solution. Also, helpful libraries, such as a check of whether an […]

This is a continuation of Spring Batch vs Akka. Batching I ran each of these with a commit size of 1 and 10 for a total of 100 records. I was curious what types of improvements would be seen for each batch job and how the increased processing would affect completion time. Additionally, the idea of […]
In this I will talk about Java batch implementations in two different frameworks: Spring Batch and Akka. I looked at both frameworks for a simple ETL program. I ran each of these with a commit size of 1 and of 10. I was curious what types of improvements would be seen for each batch job […]
The Problem When building any application, library or framework one of the design decisions you make again and again is flexibility. This is shown by many of the choices you make during development. But what about when you want your application, library or framework to be configurable. What is Typesafe Config? It […]
As I’m certain everyone is aware, a new version of SecureCI™ has been released! Many more tools have been included, and while the basic setup is the same, there is a bit more configuration that you’ll need to setup. My previous post of how to startup a new instance of SecureCI™ is still accurate, however […]
Introduction I just finished giving my talk at StarEast about testing on a rooted device, and it went wonderfully. The room wasn’t packed, but the people who were there were the correct people…and that is what I really care about.
