    Check / Uncheck A TreeView Item When Clicking The Label

    Normally, when you click a label for a Kendo UI Treeview item, the item toggles between selected and not. But in some scenarios, you just don’t need the item to be selected. Sometimes it makes more sense for the checkboxes to act as the item being selected or not. I’ve had a number of people ask me how to do this recently, so I wanted to share a quick and easy tip on how to make it work.

    It's All About the Data

    We collect a lot of data during the testing process, but whether we put it to good use is a different story.  We run individual tests of test cases, and determine if they pass or fail.  If they fail, we determine at what point they fail, and provide the steps necessary to replicate that failure. We look for performance of individual transactions early on in the testing process, then when our goal turns toward deployment, we add virtual users to determine the behavior characteristics of the application and servers under stress, as well as whether it can successfully handle the ...

    [A Few Tips] How to Decompose User Stories and Assign Tasks

    Decomposition into Tasks Your backlog is normally comprised of requirements in the form of User Stories which depict the resulting value required by the users of the system.

Agile teams spend the first few hours of each iteration going through iteration planning, and a part of that process is the decomposition of requirements into work that can be completed by ...

    30 Days of TDD – Day 11 – What’s the Deal with “Mocking?”

    A goal of well written unit tests is to keep your test isolated. This means that even if your code under test relies on or is dependent on another class or external service you should be able to write your tests to exclude these dependencies and test only what’s in your current class or method. Sound impossible? It’s not, in fact if you’ve read my previous posts on Dependency Injection you already know half the answer to this problem. The other half of the solution is mocking.
