    The Minesweeper Game Done in Silverlight 1.1

    Silverlight is a Blast! And instead of trying to convince you, we present you a well-known game in its silverlit clothes. The minesweeper! It adds to other games that in the past several weeks have shown the ease with which you can use Silverlight to create online interaction and games. It uses no fancy frameworks but underlines the simplicity and straightforwardness of Silverlight development. The number of mines and the rows/columns are configurable.

    ClickOnce and the Telerik CAB Enabling Kit

    Some time ago a client of ours asked us whether he can use the Telerik CAB Enabling Kit with ClickOnce.

    How precise automated tests catch totally unexpected bugs

    You may remember my post where I mentioned the technique I like regarding writing precise Selenium tests. I believe the good test has double value if it doesn’t verify just the case it is written for, but even catches totally unexpected bugs. How does such test look like? Several days ago our Web Grid developers were working on resolving a weird bug in the control. As soon as the new build was ready, I started Selenium tests execution to verify that everything with the build is OK. Some of the tests failed, though, throwing an error that a specified element ...
