Q1 2018 came and went quickly this year, and while I scrambled to get many things done, I did at least manage to push out a new version of Selenified! It’s out on GitHub, up in Maven Central, and also, yes, available on our site. We managed to cram in a bunch of updates and […]
I’ve talked before about how important it is to make your BDD glue code as specific as possible, so that anyone reading your Gherkin, knows exactly what that action is supposed to perform. Even my co-workers have noticed this as a problem, and have suggested implementations to help. In a post several years ago, I […]
In my last two posts, I talked about different options for securing your network traffic, and how to setup a machine to pass network traffic through. As promised, this last post in the series will walk you through some of the more complex steps in configuring the last 3 options. Please note, that each of these […]
In a previous post I outlined a bunch of ideas for keeping your internet usage private. Towards the end of the post, I indicated that I would provide follow-ups for setting up the configurations outlined. Well, this is the first of those posts. There were three examples that I had saved for working through. Each […]
I frequently talk about best practices when writing test cases in the Mobile Application Testing Course that I teach. I recently ran into an issue on a project and figured it was worth throwing this information out for all to share. Test cases are great; obviously, they’re important to have, whether they’re automated or manual, as […]
I recently wrote several blog posts about setting up a DevOps pipeline, and it was working great for our code. However, recently, I ran into an issue. My perfectly written and tested code somehow introduced a bug into our production environment! Luckily, we caught this issue quickly, and it was a relatively easy fix. So, I fixed the code, […]
I’m currently working on a DevOps project, heavily centered around AWS GovCloud. It’s important to point out I’m working in GovCloud, as opposed to AWS, as this means several key tools are missing. My colleague, Alan Crouch, recently pointed out how NAT Gateways are missing from the offered infrastructure. Another tool we found missing was Route 53, […]
I’m going to take a little turn this month from what I usually post and talk about what many (including myself) consider the ‘more boring’ aspect of testing: test planning. About a month a ago, I participated in a “Hackathon” as part of a proposal effort. To prepare for this, the Coveros team spent some time […]
Great news. I’ll be talking in Chicago on September 19th at the Agile Testing and Test Automation Summit 2016. I’ll be discussing different testing frameworks, with a focus on the team based decision to choose the correct one. Be sure to register if you’re in the area for the conference, as it’s sure to be […]
I recently needed to setup OpenLDAP for a client. We setup an entire pipeline, similar to SecureCI and wanted to tie all of the tools into one login system. The installation was pretty straitforward, but we wanted to ensure our tooling stack was secured, so we moved a bit beyond the basics. This is all […]
