• Best practices for QA / testing in an Agile (Scrum+XP) team?

  - by Srirangan

  Hey guys, We're getting a QA for the first time in our project. We're not sure how to best use him. We work in an Agile environment. Pair programming, user stories, short sprints (two weeks), daily stand-ups, retrospectives, planning meetings, quick releases etc. One obviously way to use a tester is to verify bugs fixes and user stories every sprint. Are there any better ways for an Agile team to utilize a tester. Thanks, Sri

• NullDisplayText in markup or ISNULL(field, 0) in SQL?

  - by abatishchev

  Which approach is better to use: BoundField.NullDisplayText isn't set. NULL-case is foreseen in SQL query, i.e. SELECT ISNULL(amount, 0) FROM table or BoundField.NullDisplayText is set, e.g. "0.00 %". NULL-case isn't foreseen in SQL query, i.e. SELECT amount FROM table What do you think?

• Good MVC framework for AS3

  - by webwise

  Do you know a decent MVC framework for AS3? I am currently looking into PureMVC but I need some reassurance that it's the best choice. Do I really need to use a framework? or would it be better for me to implement MVC myself?

• rename keys in a dictionary

  - by user366660

  i want to rename the keys of a dictionary are which are ints, and i need them to be ints with leading zeros's so that they sort correctly. for example my keys are like: '1','101','11' and i need them to be: '001','101','011' this is what im doing now, but i know there is a better way tmpDict = {} for oldKey in aDict: tmpDict['%04d'%int(oldKey)] = aDict[oldKey] newDict = tmpDict

• Using a user-defined type as a primary key

  - by Chris Kaminski

  Suppose I have a system where I have metadata such as: table: ====== key name address ... Then suppose I have a user-defined type described as so: datasource datasource-key A) are there systems where it's possible to have keys based on user-defined types? B) if so, how do you decompose the keys into a form suitable for querying? C) is this a case where I'm just better off with a composite primary key?

• Update all table rows but top N in Mysql

  - by arthurprs

  I was trying to run the following query UPDATE blog_post SET `thumbnail_present`=0, `thumbnail_size`=0, `thumbnail_data`='' WHERE `blog_post` NOT IN ( SELECT `blog_post` FROM blog_post ORDER BY `blog_post` DESC LIMIT 10) But Mysql doesn't allow 'LIMIT' in an 'IN' subquery. I think I can make a select to count the table rows and then make an ordered update limited by 'COUNT - 10', but I was wondering if there is a better way. Thanks in advance.

• Mysql - Rank field for a query

  - by Mark

  How can I add a field that contains a rows rank within the result set of a query? Initially I used php to rank my results as it was all on a single page. Now I have added multiple pages so now even though I am on the second page the first result on the page is still '1st'. Obviously I could multiply the page number by the number of results per page and add the result number but I imagine there is a better way within the query. Thanks,

• How can I frequently/automatically compare the structure of the same Database?

  - by Pitming

  Does anyone know a tool that automatically compares the structure of a database and gives a report of what was changed? If it can be integrated into a CruiseControl, even better. By structure I also mean functions and stored procedures. Which is probably not clear at first sight ;-) The idea was to integrate that into a cruise control server

• Best JSF framework/library for "conversation state"

  - by stacked

  What do people think is the best JSF framework or library for a saving state longer than request scope (but w/o using session scope) that is backbutton/new window safe -- i.e. you have a "wizard"/multi-page form. For example, MyFaces has the 'SaveState' tag (http://bit.ly/8QHmX5) that allows you to maintain state across pages by saving state in the view's component tree. Any comments on SaveState (pros/cons) or suggestions for any better framework or library for this capability?

• Is or Are to prefix boolean values

  - by Brian T

  When naming a boolean, or a function returning a boolean it's usual to prefix with 'is' e.g. isPointerNull isShapeSquare What about when refering to multiple items, should it be: arePointersNull or isPointersNull areShapesNull or isShapesNull I can see arguments for both; is offers consistency and perhaps slightly better readability, are makes the code read in a more natural way. Any opinions?

• Unit tests and fixtures

  - by Wizzard

  We have a bunch of unit tests which test a lot of webpages and REST API services. Currently when our tests run it pulls from these pages live but this can take ages to run sometimes, and it also feels like the tests should be testing more of our code - not just relying on them being up and responding (if that makes sense..). Is it better practice to save a valid api response and with the unit tests load this in during setup? Thoughts?

• Does rails do a rollback if I use begin...rescue?

  - by codeman73

  I'd like to add a begin...rescue block to one of my controllers create method, in order to log better info and construct the correct error message to return to the client. Does the rescue in any way 'interrupt' the rollback process? I'm assuming rails automatically does a rollback. When does it happen? Has it already happened by the time I get in the rescue clause? I'm using mySQL on Dreamhost and I think they use innoDB.

• How to tell if 2 arrays share the same element.

  - by Ommit

  So this is a simpler form of my problem. Lets say I have 2 arrays. A= {1,2} and B={2,4,6}. If A and B share an element then delete that element from B. I know you can loop through and compare each element in A to each element in B, but there's got to be a better way!

• Powerbuilder ressources

  - by afilatun

  I'm recently working in a company where we use PowerBuilder extensively. The only documentation or ressources we have access to is some basic course saying things like "Do A, then B and you'll get C". I was wondering if there is some better crash courses or tutorials for this language on the net or somewhere else which actually explain something instead of simply taking me by the hand.
