3 Idots

2009-12-23T09:15:00.002+05:30

The official 3 Idiots synopsis:
Two friends embark on a quest for a lost buddy. On this journey they encounter a long forgotten bet, a wedding they must crash and a funeral that goes impossibly out of control.

As they make their way through the perilous landscape, another journey begins: their inner journey through memory lane and the story of their friend–the irrepressible free- thinker Rancho[Aamir Khan], who in his unique way, touches and changes their lives.

It is a story of their hostel days that swings between Rancho college romance with the spirited Pia [Kareena], and his clash with an oppressive mentor[Boman Irani].

Finally, in misty mountains of unparalleled beauty, the friends[R Madhavan and Sharman Joshi] find the key to the secret that they seek.

3 Idiots is a comedy of ideas that is as provocative as it is funny, as wildly entertaining as it is insightful. A laugh-riot that talks about the most important of human pursuits: self-actualization.

Honda V4

2009-11-06T15:08:00.004+05:30

Honda has just pulled the covers off a radical new concept motorcycle at the Intermot show in Cologne, Germany. Technically, there isn't much here that's real, but there's still plenty to dissect. Honda is obviously feverishly working on a new V4 engine and that will soon show up in a production bike. Rumor has it that the Japanese company is taking another look at oval pistons, which would allow for more valves and larger combustion chambers. Could this powerplant show up in a new Interceptor? While this is currently nothing more than a sculpture, so was the new VMax when Yamaha first showed that concept. Studying the lines a bit, we can tell that this wouldn't likely be a race bike, but more likely a new street-going model. We also see hubless wheels, which would be an extremely far-out bit of tech if they were to make it into production. Is that possible? According to Honda, yes. Big Red is saying this design is a "new beginning" for the company and the direction that it's headed, and that sounds awfully exciting. We'll be watching.

RESS RELEASE:
Cologne, Germany, October 7, 2008-- Honda Motor Europe Ltd. exhibited the World Premiere V4 Concept Model at Intermot Cologne. The V4 Concept Model proposes a new, sensual design direction based on Honda's trademark 4-cylinder V- engine.
This year Honda celebrates its 60th anniversary as a company and next year the 50th anniversary of its participation in road racing, as well as the 30th anniversary of racing with an innovative 4-cylinder V-engine with oval pistons. Considering these milestones, Honda chose "The New Beginning" as its exhibition theme leading into 2009 and exhibited the V4 Concept Model which signifies the beginning of a new era.
For Intermot, Honda collected and exhibited successive V4 race machines as well as mass-market motorcycle products which were developed by feeding back the technologies cultivated through participation in challenging race competition, enabling visitors to review the lineage of 30 years of V4 engine technologies and see how Honda will take motorcycling somewhere it has not been before. The exhibition also offers an easy-to-understand introduction to various challenges Honda has undertaken in order to create joy for its customers, by utilizing its technologies that have been continuously advanced through Honda's 60-year history and by its participation in motorsports.
Honda understands the global trend today that motorcycle users see increasing value in more emotional and sensual performance during the real world riding experience rather than absolute performance measured in numeric specifications. On another front, user friendly features that meet with human sensibilities are also becoming important along with safety and environmental features, especially in mature markets.
Honda believes that the challenge to create attractive products with an increased focus on sensual performance will be the key for the future. At the same time, safety and environmental technologies as well as future energy technologies will continue to become an important theme for the development of motorcycle products. Moreover, in order to offer a comfortable life with motorcycles for a larger number of customers, Honda will put increased focus on the human-fitting match of rider and machine. Conceived around the trademark 4-cylinder V-engine, the V4 Concept Model expresses functional beauty as well as a more sensual image to appeal more to the emotions of people. Embodying Honda's passion for motorcycle development, the V4 Concept Model expresses the unique characteristics of Honda for a new era.
The V4 Concept Model mobilizes the driving forces of Honda - dreams, challenges, and creating new value. Honda positions this model as "the new beginning" of Honda's motorcycles.

Disney's A Christmas Carol Movie

2009-11-06T09:10:00.003+05:30

PROFILE OVERVIEW

Theatrical Release: Friday, November 6, 2009 (Wide; 3,683 theaters)
Starring:
* Jim Carrey
* Cary Elwes
* Colin Firth
* Bob Hoskins
* Robin Wright Penn

Directed by: Robert Zemeckis

Genres: Comedy Family Animation Holiday

Distributor: Walt Disney Pictures

SYNOPSIS
"Disney's A Christmas Carol", a multi-sensory thrill ride re-envisioned by Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Robert Zemeckis, captures the fantastical essence of the classic Dickens tale in a groundbreaking 3-D motion picture event. Ebenezer Scrooge (Jim Carrey) begins the Christmas holiday with his usual miserly contempt, barking at his faithful clerk (Gary Oldman) and his cheery nephew (Colin Firth). But when the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come take him on an eye-opening journey revealing truths Old Scrooge is reluctant to face, he must open his heart to undo years of ill will before it’s too late.

If you were trying to think of the ideal role for craggy-faced British thespian Gary Oldman, then Tiny Tim, the limping little cherub from Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, would probably appear somewhere near the bottom of any compiled list. But, thanks to the digital hocus-pocus offered by Back to the Future director Robert Zemeckis’s continuing experiments in 3D motion capture cinema, this November will see the erstwhile Commissioner Jim Gordon being given the, surely once-in-a-lifetime, chance to play a sickly child in Victorian London. Starring in this latest of countless movie versions of Dickens’ classic tale is Jim Carrey, who not only tackles the lead of Ebeneezer Scrooge but also plays all three of the Ghosts who visit the curmudgeonly miser on a fateful Christmas Eve. As noted, Oldman is Tiny Tim, and he is also playing that character’s father Bob Cratchit, as well as Scrooge’s deceased business partner Jacob Marley.

Sri Lanka - National Emblem

2009-11-05T15:38:00.004+05:30

Sri Lanka used the British emblem when it was a British Crown Colony and this continued after gaining independence in 1948. According to the recommendation of a select committee appointed to devise a state emblem more suitable for Sri Lanka (Ceylon) we opted for a new state emblem. It had a lion with sword in its right fore paw encircled with a 'Palapethi' design atop. Below there was a strip carrying the country's name in Sinhala, Tamil and English. A new Republican emblem was chosen after the country was declared a Republic on May 22nd, 1972. In addition to the lion with sword and the 'Palapethi' design it portrays the punkalasa, dhammachakka, sun, moon and two sheaves of paddy.

The coat of arms features a gold lion passant, holding a sword in its right fore paw (the same lion from the flag of Sri Lanka) in the centre on a maroon background surrounded by golden petals of a Blue Lotus the national flower of the country. This is placed on top of a traditional grain vase that sprouts sheaves of rice grains that circle the border reflecting prosperity.

The crest is the Dharmacakra, symbolizing the country's foremost place for Buddhism and just rule. Traditional Sinhalese heraldic symbols for the sun and the moon form the supporters.

Hi ; Twilight LoverZ

The subject of second version of Twilight is;
After Bella recovers from the vampire attack that almost claimed her life, she looks to celebrate her birthday with Edward and his family. However, a minor accident during the festivities results in Bella’s blood being shed, a sight that proves too intense for the Cullens, who decide to leave the town of Forks, Washington for Bella and Edward’s sake. Initially heartbroken, Bella finds a form of comfort in reckless living, as well as an even-closer friendship with Jacob Black. Danger in different forms awaits.

At Bella’s 18th birthday party at the Cullens’ house, she gets a paper cut, and Jasper attempts to attack her. The Cullens decide it would be better for Bella’s safety if they left, so they get away from Forks, leaving Bella heartbroken. She finds solace in family friend Jacob Black, who incidentally is a werewolf. But before Edward left, he made Bella promise she wouldn’t do anything reckless or stupid but, as he’d already broken his promise to ‘be there for as long as she wanted him’, she decides to break her promise. She goes cliff-diving, which makes Edward think she has killed herself, although it was purely for recreational purposes. So Edward travels to Italy, to provoke the Volturi so they will kill him. Alice finds Bella, and they begin a race to the Italian city of Volterra to stop him

Sri Lanka - National Flag

2009-11-04T16:28:00.003+05:30

National Flag

National Flag of Sri Lanka is the lion flag. A lion holding a sword in his right hand is depicted in gold on red background with a yellow border. Four Bo leaves inwards are at the four corners. Two vertical bands of green and orange at the mast end represent the minority ethnic groups. It is an adaptation of the standard of the last king of Sri Lanka.

The first Prime Minister of independent Sri Lanka, D.S.Senanayake, appointed a committee to advice the government on the design of a new national flag. The design approved by the committee in February 1950 retained the symbol of the lion with the sword and the bo-leaves from the civil standard of the last king of Sri Lanka, with the inclusion of two verticle stripes green and orange in color. the significance of each symbol of the national flag is as follows:

* The lion in the flag represents the Sinhala race.
* The sword of the lion represents the sovereignty of the country.
* The noble eight fold path of Buddhism is signified by the lion's tail.
* Curly hair on the lion's head indicates religious observance, wisdom and meditation.
* The beard denotes purity of words.
* The handle of the sword highlights the elements of water, fire, air and earth.
* The nose indicates intelligence.
* The two front paws purport to purity in handling wealth.
* The verticle stripe of orange represent the minority Tamil race and the green verticle stripe the minority Muslim race.
* The four virtues of kindness: KINDNESS, FRIENDLINESS, HAPPINESS, EQUANIMITY are also represented in the flag.
* The border round the flag, which is yellow in color, represents other minor races.
* The bo-leaves at the four corners of the flag represent Buddhism and it's influence on the nation. They also stand for the four virtues - Kindness, Friendliness, Happiness and Equanimity.
* The maroon colored portion of the flag manifests the other minor religions.

The national flag was hoisted for the first time on March 3, 1950.

Cucumber and Ruby on Rails (Part 7) My learning materials

2009-10-30T10:16:00.006+05:30

Now lets see a scenario to go through the links and how the cucumber deals with that scenario.
Before write the scenario lets look at the scree shots and what could be the scenario.

1 Step:- I am on the “List of products” page and I can see
Titled = Ruby on Rails
Description = Model View Architecture
Image url = ror.jpg
Price = 22

2 Step:- Now I click on “New Product” link.

3 Step:- Now click on “Back” link again. Then I am again on “List of Products”.

4 Step:- Now click on “Show” link and then I can see

5 Step: like wise we can navigate through the links

Now lets see how this scenario can be written. Before that look at these step definitions. You can find them in webrat_steps.rb file.

When /^I press "([^\"]*)"$/ do |button|
click_button(button)
end

This can be used for when we click on button

When /^I follow "([^\"]*)"$/ do |link|
click_link(link)
end

When /^I follow "([^\"]*)" within "([^\"]*)"$/ do |link, parent|

click_link_within(parent, link)

end

These two can be used when we navigate through the links.
Now lets see the scenario.

Scenario: Go Through Links
Given I have products titled Ruby on Rails, description Model View Architecture, Image url ror.jpg, Price 22
When I go to the list of Products
Then I should see "Ruby on Rails"
And I should see "Model View Architecture"
And I should see "ror.jpg"
And I should see "22"
When I follow "New Product"
And I follow "Back"
And I am on the list of Products
Then I should see "Ruby on Rails"
And I should see "Model View Architecture"
And I should see "ror.jpg"
And I should see "22"
When I follow "Show"
Then I should see "Ruby on Rails"
And I should see "Model View Architecture"
And I should see "ror.jpg"
And I should see "22"
When I follow "Back"
And I am on the list of Products
Then I should see "Ruby on Rails"
And I should see "Model View Architecture"
And I should see "ror.jpg"
And I should see "22"
When I follow "Edit"
And I follow "Back"
And I am on the list of Products
Then I should see "Java"
And I should see "Platform Independent"
And I should see "java.jpg"
And I should see "20"

save this scenario as go_through_links.feature and run the cucumber features/go_through_links.feature

Then you can see the following screen shot.

Why this scenario failed. Look at these steps.

When I follow "Edit"
And I follow "Back"
And I am on the list of Products
Then I should see "Java"
And I should see "Platform Independent"
And I should see "java.jpg"
And I should see "20"

These steps are wrong. They should be as follows.

When I follow "Edit"
And I follow "Back"
And I am on the list of Products
Then I should see "Ruby on Rails"
And I should see "Model View Architecture"
And I should see "ror.jpg"
And I should see "22"

Edit the feature file and run again cucumber features/go_through_links.feature. Now you can get the all the steps are passed massage.

This is how the cucumber work with the navigation scenario.

Introduction to Design Patterns

2009-10-26T12:16:00.011+05:30

What are Design Patterns?

Design patterns are essentially a catalog common interactions between objects. These interactions have been found, tested / tried and optimized by experienced programmers to help others solve some of their programming problems very common in an efficient manner. Design Patterns illustrate just how objects can communicate with them without being much concerned about their individual data models and methods. This clear separation helps create solutions to design robust and scalable for different programming problems. If you've already made this separation in your code, then you already use some of the widely used Design Patterns.

Design patterns are mainly of three types.
Creational -
Creational patterns are ones that create objects for you, rather than having you instantiate objects directly. This gives your program more flexibility in deciding which objects need to be created for a given case.
Structural -
Structural patterns help you compose groups of objects into larger structures, such as complex user interfaces or accounting data.
Behavioral -
Behavioral patterns help you define the communication between objects in your system and how the flow is controlled in a complex program

Creational Design Patterns:Read More...

Singleton - Ensure that only one instance of a class is created and Provide a global access point to the object.

Factory(Simplified version of Factory Method) - Creates objects without exposing the instantiation logic to the client and Refers to the newly created object through a common interface.

Factory Method - Defines an interface for creating objects, but let subclasses to decide which class to instantiate and Refers to the newly created object through a common interface.

Abstract Factory - Offers the interface for creating a family of related objects, without explicitly specifying their classes.

Builder - Defines an instance for creating an object but letting subclasses decide which class to instantiate and Allows a finer control over the construction process.

Prototype - Specify the kinds of objects to create using a prototypical instance, and create new objects by copying this prototype.

Object Pool - reuses and shares objects that are expensive to create..

Behavioral Design Patterns:Read More...

Chain of Responsibility - It avoids attaching the sender of a request to its receiver, giving this way other objects the possibility of handling the request too.

Command - Encapsulate a request in an object, Allows the parametrization of clients with different requests and Allows saving the requests in a queue.

Interpreter - Given a language, define a representation for its grammar along with an interpreter that uses the representation to interpret sentences in the language / Map a domain to a language, the language to a grammar, and the grammar to a hierarchical object-oriented design

Iterator - Provide a way to access the elements of an aggregate object sequentially without exposing its underlying representation.

Mediator - Define an object that encapsulates how a set of objects interact. Mediator promotes loose coupling by keeping objects from referring to each other explicitly, and it lets you vary their interaction independently.

Observer - Define a one-to-many dependency between objects so that when one object changes state, all its dependents are notified and updated automatically.

Strategy - Define a family of algorithms, encapsulate each one, and make them interchangeable. Strategy lets the algorithm vary independently from clients that use it.

Template Method - Define the skeleton of an algorithm in an operation, deferring some steps to subclasses / Template Method lets subclasses redefine certain steps of an algorithm without letting them to change the algorithm's structure.

Visitor - Represents an operation to be performed on the elements of an object structure / Visitor lets you define a new operation without changing the classes of the elements on which it operates.

Null Object - Provide an object as a surrogate for the lack of an object of a given type. / The Null Object Pattern provides intelligent do nothing behavior, hiding the details from its collaborators.

Structural Design Patterns:Read More...

Adapter - Convert the interface of a class into another interface clients expect. / Adapter lets classes work together, that could not otherwise because of incompatible interfaces.

Bridge - Compose objects into tree structures to represent part-whole hierarchies. / Composite lets clients treat individual objects and compositions of objects uniformly.

Composite - Compose objects into tree structures to represent part-whole hierarchies. / Composite lets clients treat individual objects and compositions of objects uniformly.

Decorator - add additional responsibilities dynamically to an object.

Flyweight - use sharing to support a large number of objects that have part of their internal state in common where the other part of state can vary.

Memento - capture the internal state of an object without violating encapsulation and thus providing a mean for restoring the object into initial state when needed.

Proxy - provide a “Placeholder” for an object to control references to it.

Advantages And Disadvantages

Advantages:
1. A standard solution to a common programming problem
2. Enable large scale reuse of S/W
3. Helps in improve developer communication
4. Capture expert knowledge and design trade-offs and make expertise widely available
5. A technique for making code more flexible by making it meet certain criteria
6. A design or implementation structure that achieves a particular purpose
7. Speed up the development process by providing tested, proven development paradigms.
8. Reusing design patterns helps to prevent subtle issues that can cause major problems, and it also improves code readability for coders and architects who are familiar with the patterns.
9. Design patterns provide general solutions, documented in a format that doesn't require specifics tied to a particular problem.
10. In addition, patterns allow developers to communicate using well-known, well understood names for software interactions. Common design patterns can be improved over time, making them more robust than ad-hoc designs

Disadvantages:
1. Do not lead to direct code reuse
2. Complex in nature
3. They are deceptively simple
4. Design patterns may increase or decrease the understandability of a design or implementation. They can decrease understandability by adding indirection or increasing the amount of code.
5. They are validated by experience and discussion

First X-Men Origins Game

2009-10-26T10:09:00.002+05:30

See the screenshot , that’s the first in-game pic of X-Men Origins: Wolverine, the videogame, NOT the movie. As you can tell, it looks like not only does the game use the likeness of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, but the graphics will be extremely detailed and very close to the real deal.

According to 1-Up and EGM, who got the exclusive cover-story blow-out on the game, say that it is not only very violent (in keeping with the Wolverine of the comics, I hope) but also more along the lines of Ninja Gaiden II than a “standard” action game. Players will get to take the role of Logan and experience the tormented origins of Wolverine, from his escape of the Weapon X facility to the jungles of Africa and beyond. Here is the official description of the game:

X-Men Origins: Wolverine is an epic action-adventure featuring a true-to-character Wolverine gameplay experience that takes gamers through and beyond the movie’s storyline. Set in a variety of vivid real-world locales, the title challenges players to hone their animal instinct as they uncover hidden dangers, hunt and destroy enemies, and take on seemingly insurmountable situations while discovering the truth about Wolverine’s tragic past. With razor-sharp adamantium claws unsheathed, the future X-Man enacts lightning-quick combat, evasive maneuvers, in-depth combo attacks, and an array of brutal finishing moves. Wolverine doesn’t just deliver massive damage, either — he also takes it, thanks to his mutant regenerative power that heals him in real time right before the player’s eyes.

Developed by Raven Software (makers of X-Men Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance), the game will feature a “simple but elegant” and accessible combat system, cool boss fights including an initial one against a Sentinal robot (YES!), seamless cinematic cut-scenes that will bridge the gameplay bits and lots more.

The game will launch alongside the global release of the film in May of 2009 for Xbox 360, PS3, PS2, PC, Wii, DS, and PSP game systems.

Software Test Tools

2009-10-23T13:13:00.003+05:30

What Are Software Test Tools?
Software test tools help development teams investigate software bugs, verify functionality, and ensure both the reliability and security of the software they develop. Tools are available for all stages of a software development project. Some software testing tool vendors offer an integrated suite that will support testing and development throughout the life of a project, from gathering requirements to supporting the live system. Other vendors concentrate on a single part of the application development life cycle.

Software Test Tools Business Drivers and Benefits
1) Increase the quality of software applications.
2) Software performance measurement.
3) Improving process management lifecycle of the product.
4) Perform a risk analysis and benchmarking.
5) Gain consistency in testing procedures with automated testing tools (as opposed to manual testing, which may be incompatible).
6) Improving the time to put on the market following the effective detection of functional performance, and security issues.
7) Save money on software development and maintenance costs

Software Test Tools Risks
1. Automated testing can produce quantities of raw data cumbersome. Test for choosing one form tool you can easily manipulate the data that is capable of change and should work together.
2. It undermines the efficiency of fault injection is not important. Fault injection tool specific code paths above weaknesses, particularly, the path that are victims of security attacks can not show through the check.
3. There are two drawbacks you enough for choosing the wrong software tools have not only wasted time and resources, but also an obstacle that you can get your teams made solutions difficult.

Nokia's 'Booklet 3G' Netbook

2009-10-23T08:29:00.003+05:30

Nokia's 'Booklet 3G' Netbook With 12 Hour Battery-Life. Form and Functionality.

If you're a fan of Netbooks, and also a fan of Nokia, you'll soon be able to indulge your preference. On 2 September 2009, Nokia plans to release availability and pricing details for their new netbook called the "Booklet 3G"

Yes, Nokia is bringing out its own kind of Netbook, and even though it may look like a regular netbook, it will carry the classy, smooth design we're used to see from Nokia.
The Booklet 3G will be Windows based and powered by the popular and efficient Intel Atom processor with a whopping 12 hour battery life. This means people will be able to leave their power cables behind a little more often, without losing connectivity.

Weighing only 1.25 kilograms, this new lightweight plans to pack a significant punch with its highly portable aluminium casing. It's little more than 2 centimetres thick.

Connectivity options include 3G/HSDPA as well as Wi-fi, offering users high speed access to the internet.

The device features a HDMI port enabling HD video out, a built-in camera for video calling, blue tooth and SD card reader. Featuring a 10-inch glass HD ready display and a built-in A-GPS (which works with the Ovi Maps gadget), pinpointing your exact position takes only seconds.

We cannot really be surprised by this move, considering that Nokia is one of the world's leading providers of connectivity. Considering that Nokia is probably one of the most well known names in the world today, consumers should be able to look forward to be able to add to their list of gadgets the new Booklet 3G.

Nokia seems to be upping their game every time a new product is released, and we expect pretty much the same this time. Of course consumer expectations will likely be high with this new addition to their product line, but if Nokia continues to deliver the high quality we've grown accustomed to over the years, I'm sure it will be a hit with users.

Product availability and pricing details will be released on 2 September, 2009 through Nokia World

What Microhoo means to you

2009-10-23T08:18:00.003+05:30

The deal Microsoft and Yahoo made today to combine their ad and search efforts has its roots in the mid-1990s, near the dawn of the Web.

It was then Yahoo CEO Tim Koogle who made the decision that Yahoo would become a “portal,” a gateway to an internal Web world. All the smart guys in New York and in the mainstream media were urging this. Search, they said, was limited, it was techie, it was obscure. The real growth was in media.

Around the same time Microsoft decided it must “embrace and extend” its monopoly from Windows to Office to the Web, through Internet Explorer. Rather than selling what it made, it would bundle its monopoly products with its browser and dominate that way. This led to its antitrust case, and it has embraced, even extended itself into, the legal profession ever since.

So it was mistakes made long ago that created the new Microhoo. Yahoo will become the salesman and public face for Microsoft’s technology. The hope is this will slowly eliminate the technology, legal, and marketing mistakes both are known for, relying on the two firms’ complementary strengths.

FIFA Soccer 10 (Xbox 360) Release Date: 10/20/2009

2009-10-20T16:11:00.002+05:30

On the pitch, critical gameplay fundamentals have been enhanced to ensure that FIFA 10 mirrors real-world football, providing more sophisticated ball control, and physical interaction between players. In addition, players now move, behave and position themselves more realistically. On attack, players analyze space more effectively, curve their runs in an attempt to stay onside, create passing lanes naturally, and drive for more variety in attacking options. On defense, new concepts like position priority enable defenders to multitask so dangerous spaces left open by teammates out of position are covered. Plus, slide tackle targeting, press marking, and better-urgency clearance logic provide new options that make defending a tactical skill in FIFA 10. In goal, a myriad of improvements and refinements to goalkeeper intelligence result in a more responsive and powerful rushing system and ultra-realistic saves.

Listening to feedback and addressing gamer frustrations has become a key part of the EA SPORTS strategy to improve the FIFA franchise on an annual basis. Better balance on lofted through balls, improved goalkeeper intelligence, more realistic shooting mechanics with less shots hitting the goal posts, a practice arena to perfect skills, and a more immersive football experience through continuous play and quick free kicks are just a few of the issues raised by fans and addressed in FIFA 10.

Three new innovations revealed today have been developed to change the player control experience in FIFA 10. The first-ever true 360° dribbling system gives players finer control of the ball, enabling them to find spaces between defenders that previously were not possible. Using an all-new animation technology, skilled dribblers now have the ability to face the defender and use highly responsive lateral dribbling to skip past him. An innovative concept called Freedom in Physical Play enables players to perform wider dribble touches and new collision sharing creates a varied, less predictable, and extended fight for possession between the dribbler and a defender.

FIFA 10 also features a deeper iteration of the ever-popular Manager Mode with more than 50 major improvements, including new match realism, realistic player transfers based on multiple decision points, and true-to-life player growth curves.

Install Windows XP after installing Ubuntu

2009-10-20T15:41:00.003+05:30

STEP 1
Install UBUNTU in your machine.

STEP 2
Create a partition to install XP.

Now we must create a space on the hard drive for XP, so this means resizing the Ubuntu partition. Restart the system using the Ubuntu Live CD as it gives you access to GNOME Partition Editor. When loading the CD, select "Try Ubuntu without any change to your computer.
Right-click on the main data partition which has been formatted with ext3 - it should be /dev/sda1 - and select "Resize/Move"
Move the cursor to the right to reduce the ext3 partition and create free space on the hard drive, which will take the XP NTFS partition. Make sure the space is large enough to hold XP (at least 2 GB - preferably 5 Go). Then click "Resize / Move" to confirm the selection, and "Apply" to return to the main screen to make the change under-way.

STEP 3
Install Windows XP to Your Machine.

STEP 4
Restore the GRUB boot loader

Once XP has been installed, it will boot happily into XP but there's no sign of Ubuntu. To reinstate GRUB as the system bootloader it needs to be reinstalled into the MBR.

Boot the system from the Ubuntu Live CD and select "Try Ubuntu without any change to your computer".

To enter the GRUB configuration mode, type in "sudo grub" and press Enter. Then type in the following commands in sequence:
- root (hd0,0)
- setup (hd0)
- quit
- exit

STEP 5
Change the menu.lst file in /boot/grub directory.

Go to the grub directly using terminal then type sudo nano menu.lst.

then Edit it as follows and save the file.

Scroll down to the bottom of the file and type in the following text strings:

title Windows XP
root (hd0,1)
makeactive
chainloader +1

Save the file and reboot. When the GRUB loader launches hit ESC for the boot menu. Windows XP is the last option - select it and XP will load.

If you want to make the GRUB menu always available, boot back into Ubuntu and edit the MENU.LST file. Find the hiddenmenu text string and change it to #hiddenmenu.

To increase the menu timeout, change the default timeout 3 to something more appropriate.

The Vampire's Assistant

2009-10-19T17:07:00.005+05:30

Synopsis

Based on the popular series of books by Darren Shan, Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant tells the story of a small-town teen who inadvertently shatters a 200-year-old truce between warring factions of vampires. Sixteen-year-old Darren (Chris Massoglia) is your typical adolescent; he spends most of his time with his best friend, Steve (Josh Hutcherson), earns decent grades, and generally manages to stay out of trouble. But trouble finds Darren when he and Steve make the acquaintance of a vampire named Larten Crepsley (John C. Reilly) while attending a traveling freak show at a local theater. Transformed into a bloodsucker by Crepsley, Darren joins the Cirque du Freak and quickly ingratiates himself with the unusual cast of characters who populate it, including Madame Truska the Bearded Lady (Salma Hayek) and the traveling sideshow's towering barker (Ken Watanabe). As Darren works to master his newfound powers as a budding member of the supernatural underworld, he becomes a valued pawn between the vampires and their deadlier rivals, the Vampanese. With tensions between the two sects intensifying, Darren must figure out a means of keeping the coming war from destroying his last vestige of humanity. Patrick Fugit, Orlando Jones, Willem Dafoe, and Jane Krakowski co-star. - Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

What can we do further with our project. Hmmmmm... We can validate user inputs . Lets see how can the validations can be done using cucumber.

What can we validate. We can validate “user inputs are OK such as is price is a numerical value or not and all the fields are not empty etc..”

Before doing the cucumber part lets see the what is happening in GUI part.

Go to the product/app/models/ folder and open product.rb file. Afetr that copy and paste following codes to it as follows.

class Product < ActiveRecord::Base
validates_presence_of :title, :description, :image_url
validates_numericality_of :price
end

Now lets see the GUI.
1)First go to the product folder in the terminal and then run the server “ruby script/server”
2) Then gotothe browser and type “http://localhost:3000/products” . Then you can see following GUI

3)click on New product link and you can see this page.

4)Now check what is happening when click on create button without filling any field. You can see following error massages.

5)Now you can see what is happening when there is one field is filling and click create button. Check them with your self.

6)Now lets see how the cucumber can use for this.
7)Go to the feature folder and create a new file called validate_product_details.feature and copy and paste following scenario.
8)
Scenario: Validate Product Details
Given I have no products
And I am on the list of Products
When I follow "New Product"
And I fill in "Title" with ""
And I fill in "Description" with ""
And I fill in "Image Url" with ""
And I fill in "Price" with ""
And I press "Create"
Then I should see "Title can't be blank"
And I should see "Description can't be blank"
And I should see "Image url can't be blank"
And I should see "Price is not a number"

9)Now run the cucumber features/validate_product_details.feature then you can see following.

10)It says all steps are passed. In this scenario we can check alll the validation by writing steps like follows
Scenario: Validate Product Details
Given I have no products
And I am on the list of Products
When I follow "New Product"
And I fill in "Title" with ""
And I fill in "Description" with ""
And I fill in "Image Url" with ""
And I fill in "Price" with ""
And I press "Create"
Then I should see "Title can't be blank"
And I should see "Description can't be blank"
And I should see "Image url can't be blank"
And I should see "Price is not a number"

When I fill in "Title" with "C#"
And I fill in "Description" with ""
And I fill in "Image Url" with ""
And I fill in "Price" with ""
And I press "Create"
Then I should see "Description can't be blank"
And I should see "Image url can't be blank"
And I should see "Price is not a number"

When I fill in "Title" with "C#"
And I fill in "Description" with ""
And I fill in "Image Url" with ""
And I fill in "Price" with "23"
And I press "Create"
Then I should see "Description can't be blank"
And I should see "Image url can't be blank"

When I fill in "Title" with "C#" .......

like wise we can write so many steps.

11)But you can see that is not much effective because write all the validation like this is not good. What can we do for it. Think a little bit....
12)If you can remember the last post why we can't use that. Then the above scenario can be written as follows.
Scenario: Validate Product Details
Given I have no products
And I am on the list of Products
When I follow "New Product"
When I fill in the following:
| Title | |
| Description | |
| Image Url | |
| Price | |
And I press "Create"
Then I should see "Title can't be blank"
And I should see "Description can't be blank"
And I should see "Image url can't be blank"
And I should see "Price is not a number"

13)Now run the cucumber features/validate_product_details.feature

href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_MbJm8dM9WQo/StwV7twHn_I/AAAAAAAAAEs/j5fNejg-GgU/s1600-h/5.png">

14)What a simple way to write validation file. Now lets expand this as follows and try to understand to what is happening there.

Scenario: Validate Product Details
Given I have no products
And I am on the list of Products
When I follow "New Product"
When I fill in the following:
| Title | |
| Description | |
| Image Url | |
| Price | |
And I press "Create"
Then I should see "Title can't be blank"
And I should see "Description can't be blank"
And I should see "Image url can't be blank"
And I should see "Price is not a number"

When I fill in the following:
| Title | |
| Description | |
| Image Url | |
| Price | 20 |
And I press "Create"
Then I should see "Title can't be blank"
And I should see "Description can't be blank"
And I should see "Image url can't be blank"

When I fill in the following:
| Title | |
| Description | |
| Image Url | a.jpg |
| Price | |
And I press "Create"
Then I should see "Title can't be blank"
And I should see "Description can't be blank"
And I should see "Price is not a number"

When I fill in the following:
| Title | |
| Description | My name is JTK |
| Image Url | |
| Price | |
And I press "Create"
Then I should see "Title can't be blank"
And I should see "Image url can't be blank"
And I should see "Price is not a number"

When I fill in the following:
| Title | JTK |
| Description | |
| Image Url | |
| Price | |
And I press "Create"
Then I should see "Description can't be blank"
And I should see "Image url can't be blank"
And I should see "Price is not a number"

15)Now run the cucumber features/validate_product_details.feature now try to write your own validation files for your projects.

Hi all,
These days I am going too change my blog view to different view. So sorry for problems which you found.

Cucumber and Ruby on Rails (Part 5) My learning materials

2009-10-14T09:42:00.003+05:30

OK now I think you have a good idea of my past posts. Pardon me because my new post is late. As I said earlier there is a simple way of the last scenario. First we look at that scenario.

Scenario: Create Valid Product
Given I have no products
And I am on the list of Products
When I follow "New Product"
And I fill in "Title" with "Ruby On Rails"
And I fill in "Description" with "Model View Control Architecture"
And I fill in "Image Url" with "ror.jpg"
And I fill in "Price" with "22"
And I press "Create"
Then I should see "Product was successfully created."
And I should see "Ruby On Rails"
And I should see "Model View Control Architecture"
And I should see "ror.jpg"
And I should see "22"
And I should have 1 product

In this scenario we used “I fill in “(field name)” with “(value)” ” lot of time. But we can give this in a simple way. Lets look at that scenario.

Scenario: Create Valid Product
Given I have no products
And I am on the list of Products
When I follow "New Product"
When I fill in the following:
| Title | C# |
| Description | ABC |
| Image Url | c.jpg |
| Price | 5 |
And I press "Create"
Then I should see "Product was successfully created."
And I should see "C#"
And I should see "ABC"
And I should see "C#"
And I should see "5"
And I should have 1 product

When we write this what is happening. Go to your webrat_step.rb file and you can see the following step definition.

# Use this to fill in an entire form with data from a table. Example:
#
# When I fill in the following:
# | Account Number | 5002 |
# | Expiry date | 2009-11-01|
# | Note | Nice guy |
# | Wants Email? | |
#
# TODO: Add support for checkbox, select og option
# based on naming conventions.
#

When /^I fill in the following:$/ do |fields|
fields.rows_hash.each do |name, value|
When %{I fill in "#{name}" with "#{value}"}
end
end

There you can see the the cucumber give a easy way to do our job without typing same thing several times like in the 1st scenario.

What is happening from this step definition is it created a step for us by getting the values in table. How it does lets look at step by step.

When /^I fill in the following:$/ do |fields|
From this it takes the one field of the raw for a example | Title | C# |

fields.rows_hash.each do |name, value|
From this it takes the values of the field as name and value then
name= Title
value=c#

When %{I fill in "#{name}" with "#{value}"}
From this step its create a step using that value then the step comes as
When I fill in Title with C#
and end like wise all the fields are translated by the cucumber.

Then what happen. Now it check this new step with the webrat file or with our step definition file and go through it.

The correct step definition is

When /^I fill in "([^\"]*)" with "([^\"]*)"$/ do |field, value|
fill_in(field, :with => value)
end

When we run this scenario using cucumber features/create_product.feature we got as follows.

it says all the steps are pass. that means code is OK. see how the cucumber is easy to work. according to that you can type these steps as table in that scenario

Then I should see "Product was successfully created."
And I should see "C#"
And I should see "ABC"
And I should see "C#"
And I should see "5"

try it your self.

Jeewantha.

Cucumber and Ruby on Rails (Part 4) My learning materials

2009-10-05T10:31:00.000+05:30

I think you get a good knowledge from my past posts. OK now lets see to test adding new products. Before that lets see what is happening when new product is adding.

1)He should be in the List of Product page as follows.

2)Now what he do . He clicks the New Products Link. Now he can see the following page.

3)Now he fill the fields as
Title = Ruby On Rails
Description = Model View Control Architecture
Image url= ror.jpg
Price=22

4)Now he clicks Create button and he can see following page.

5)He can see “Product was successfully created” and he can see “Ruby On Rails”, “Model View Control Architecture”, “ror.jpg” and “22”.

6)Now lets see how we can test it using Cucumber Testing.

7)Create a new file called “create_product.feature” in product/features folder and paste this scenario.

Scenario: Create Valid Product

Given I have no products

And I am on the list of Products

When I follow "New Product"

And I fill in "Title" with "Ruby On Rails"

And I fill in "Description" with "Model View Control Architecture"

And I fill in "Image Url" with "ror.jpg"

And I fill in "Price" with "22"

And I press "Create"

Then I should see "Product was successfully created."

And I should see "Ruby On Rails"

And I should see "Model View Control Architecture"

And I should see "ror.jpg"

And I should see "22"

And I should have 1 product

8)This scenario check all the steps which I shown above. Check them your self. Now go to the "Product_steps.rb"page in features/step_definition folder and paste following codes.

Given /^I have no products$/ do
Product.delete_all
end

Then /^I should have ([0-9]+) product$/ do |count|
Product.count.should == count.to_i
end

9)Now we have 2 feature files as list_of_product.feature and create_product.feature
10)when we run cucumber features all the features files are run. If we want to run only one file we can run cucumber features/(file name)
eg:- cucumber features/ create_product.feature

11)Run the cucumber features/ create_product.feature and you can see following.

12)It says all the steps are passed. Now you can test to verify actually this scenario works with the code for that we can change some codes in scenario and check running cucumber features.

13)I give it to you as a home work. Check what happening when the scenario change and run cucumber features.

14)Lets see in the next post how this scenario can be written in simple way.

Cucumber and Ruby on Rails (Part 3) My learning materials

2009-10-01T15:29:00.000+05:30

Now lets start to create scenarios and do testing using cucumber

1)Lets create our first scenario as follows and save it in the product/features folder as named
list_of_product.feature

Scenario: Products List
Given I have products titled Java, description Platform Independent, Image url java.jpg, Price 20
When I go to the list of Products
Then I should see "Java"
And I should see "Platform Independent"
And I should see "java.jpg"
And I should see "20"

2)Now run the cucumber features and see the out put as

3)You get 1 scenario (1 undefined)
6 steps (5 skipped, 1 undefined)
that means your 1st step is not defined. That means the cucumber do not know how to deal with the step

GivenI have products titled Java, description Platform Independent, Image url java.jpg, Price 20

To deal with this that should be in the webrat_step.rb file in the features/step_definitions folder. If not we have to create them for the use of cucumber and you can see the cucumber suggest you some definitions as

Given /^I have products titled Java, description Platform Independent, Image url java\.jpg, Price 20$/ do
pending
end

4)Now lets create the definition file. Create a file named product_step.rb file in the features/step_definitions folder and paste the following code there and save it.
Given /^I have products titled (.+), description (.+), Image url (.+), Price (.+)$/ do |title,description,image_url,price|

Product.create!(:title => title, :description => description, :image_url => image_url, :price => price)

end

In this step it says to store the data in the table called Product.

5)Now lets run again cucumber features and see the result. You can see following error.

This says there is no such a constant like Product. This means still we do not create our Product Table lets create our product table. Type on the terminal as follows.

ruby script/generate scaffold product title:string description:text image_url:string price:decimal

rake db:migrate

6)Now lets run again cucumber features

That says that product_test.products table. That because these scenarios working with the tables in the test database. So lets fix it. Run following code.

rake db:test:clone

Now lets run again cucumber features.

7)Its hows the following error and add it to the file path.rb in features/support

this should come after case statement

when /the list of Products/

products_path

the reason for this is (

We have our first passing step! The second step is now failing, though. This is because Cucumber doesn’t know how to translate “the list of articles” into a path in our application.
One of the files installed by Cucumber is called paths.rb, which lives in the /features/support directory. In this file we can define custom paths that map the English definitions in Cucumber files to paths in our Rails application. To add a mapping we just add a new when condition to the case statement in the path_to method. (There’s a comment in the file to show us where to add it.)
)
8)Now run again cucumber features

9)You get all the scenarios are passed.
10)Now our first scenario is passed lets try another scenario in the next post. Try this scenario and check you can understand it. Copy and paste to the same feature file

Scenario: Products List
Given I have products titled Java, description Platform Independent, Image url java.jpg, Price 20
And I have products titled Ruby on Rails, description Rich internet Application, Image url ror.gif, Price 25
When I go to the list of Products
Then I should see "Java"
And I should see "Platform Independent"
And I should see "java.jpg"
And I should see "20"
Then I should see "Ruby on Rails"
And I should see "Rich internet Application"
And I should see "ror.gif"
And I should see "25"

Cucumber and Ruby on Rails (Part 2) My learning materials

2009-09-28T10:15:00.001+05:30

Create a project and do testing using cucumber.

Project name “product”

Requirement

The user can see the available products.

When the user come to the page he should be able to see all the available products with description like

Title: Ruby on Rails

Description: Model, view, controller architecture

Image Url: ror.jpg

Price: 21

He should be able to add new products.
He should be able to show the products.
He should be able to edit products.
He should be able to validate products details when adding new products.

Error massages should be display when there is a wrong with adding data like

Price should be number

Title cant be blank etc.

When Edit product the validation also should be done.
He should be able to navigate any places by clicking links.
He should be able to delete products.

Product table contents

Title = String

Description = String

Image Url = String

Price = Decimal

Lets start developing the project.

Install cucumber

sudo gem1.8 install cucumber

The plugins’ dependencies must be installed separately:

gem install term-ansicolor treetop diff-lcs nokogiri

Lets start developing our project

Open a terminal then type

rails -d mysql product

cd product

rake db:create:all

rake db:migrate

Now lets try to create cucumber

ruby script/generate cucumber

Then run

Cucumber features

Then u can see as follows

Now you are ready to work with cucumber
lets see that in next post.

Cucumber and Ruby on Rails (Part 1)

2009-09-26T16:39:00.000+05:30

I write this post to exchange my experienced with you about Cucumber and ruby and rails.

What is cucumber?
Actually when i heard this word i get a funny and i get a picture as follows.

After that i searched web and i try to find tutorials for learning this myself. when i was finding about cucumber i got idea about as follows.

After that i started finding and do various type of tutorials and try to get basics of cucumber. But it was very difficult to me learn this because there are not much tutorials for that i found 2 tutorials and by refering them i got basic idea and i think to share my knowledge with others so that is why this kind of blog post is come out. I think this will for the begginers to get an idea.

Now lets see what is the cucumber in ruby on rais and in other post how to start to test a project using cucumber.

Cucumber (Behavioral Driven Development ) is used for testing the behavior of a code. the programmers says that cucumber is used for accepting testing. Any way this is used for behaviral testing.

Reads plain texts….
Texts are written as scenarios
Scenarios interact with the code
Check the Codes are correct

Cucumber lets software development teams describe how software should behave in plain text. The text is written in a business-readable domain-specific language and serves as documentation, automated tests and development-aid - all rolled into one format.

Lets see the simple senario and discuss about it.

Scenario: Listing & showing products
Given I have products titled Java, description Platform Independent, Image url java.jpg, Price 20
When I go to the list of Products
Then I should see "Java"
And I should see "Platform Independent"
And I should see "java.jpg"
And I should see "20"

As u can see the the senario is describe in palain text. here the Given, When, Then and And are the key words which is used by the cucumber. how the cucumber work with this type of plain text for that it uses the regular expressions. See the folowing regular expression (Don't wory that much about that we'll see them leter in detail)

Given /^I have products titled (.+), description (.+), Image url (.+), Price (.+)$/ do
|title,description,image_url,price|
Product.create!(:title => title, :description => description, :image_url => image_url, :price => price)
end

This describes the first step of the above senario. we do not much trouble with regular expressions. Becuse when we generate cucumber we get predefine regular expressions in webrat_steps.rb file.

Now I think u have basic idea about cucumber. In next posts lets see step by step to create a project and testing project using cucumber.

Working with Ruby on Rails Cucumber From the Beginning(Part I)

2009-09-24T17:29:00.000+05:30

Create a project and do testing using cucumber.

Then u can see as follows

Now you are ready to work with cucumber
lets see that in next post.

First month of My Internship at Ridgecrest Asia (pvt) Ltd.

2009-08-29T11:32:00.000+05:30

What I did the first month
1) Learned Ruby on Rails...........
2) Worked with Linux Platform (UBUNTU)
3) Learned about Software Quality Assurance
4) Developed a shopping cart using ruby on rails

What I learned In this Month
1) Basics of software quality assurance
i. Software testing types
ii. test automation and tools
ii. Experienced with two automation tools.
2) Ruby in Rails programming language
3) Basic Linux commands.

Test Automation Tool

2009-08-27T14:47:00.000+05:30

There are a lot of test automation tool in software industry. the iMacro and selenium IDE re two of them. Both can be installed as a firefox add-on. lets see how can it be done. in the next post.

Test Automation

2009-08-26T21:19:00.000+05:30

Test automation is the use of software to control the execution of tests, the comparison of actual outcomes to predicted outcomes, the setting up of test preconditions, and other test control and test reporting functions. Commonly, test automation involves automating a manual process already in place that uses a formalized testing process.

Although manual tests may find many defects in a software application, it is a laborious and time consuming process. In addition it may not be effective in finding certain classes of defects. Test automation is a process of writing a computer program to do testing that would otherwise need to be done manually. Once tests has been automated, they can be run quickly. This is often the most cost effective method for software products that have a long maintenance life, because even minor patches over the lifetime of the application can cause features to break which were working at an earlier point in time.

There are two general approaches to test automation:

Code-driven testing. The public interfaceto classes, modules, or libraries are tested with a variety of input arguments to validate that the results that are returned are correct.
Graphical User Interface testing. A testing framework generates user interface events such as keystrokes and mouse clicks, and observes the changes that result in the user interface, to validate that the observable behavior of the program is correct.

Test automation tools can be expensive, and it is usually employed in combination with manual testing. It can be made cost-effective in the longer term, especially when used repeatedly in regression testing.

What to automate, when to automate, or even whether one really needs automation are crucial decisions which the testing (or development) team has to take. Selecting the correct features of the product for automation largely decides the success of the automation. Automating unstable features or features that are undergoing changes should be avoided.^{reference:- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_automation}
