    RadCalendar for ASP.NET (AJAX) localization and all the necessary to have culture independent automated tests

    I'm back again, what comes next?

    Yeah, I know, it's been quite some time since my last post. The ideas keep coming though and I’ve just realized there is no better time for a QA to blog than ... the summer. Do you know why?

I'm afraid the list of ideas for my future posts is already quite long. However, since I'd like to share the most fascinating ...
