    Introducing Item Animation support for RadDataBoundListBox for WP7

    I bet that everyone using a Windows Phone have noticed the slick animations that are applied to a single item when it is removed or added to the viewport in the native mail client. That happens when you sync and the recent mail is added on top of the other items. Inspired by this, we decided to extend our RadDataBoundListBox and provide out-of-the-box support for per-item animations. Moreover, we made sure to allow customizations like defining your own animations, performing batch animations when resetting the source collection and defining a time interval between each separate animation when performing a batch operation. So...

    Audiocast on Developer + Tester Collaboration

    The Test Studio team is sponsoring EuroSTAR 2011 in Manchester, England from 21-24 November. Part of the run up to EuroSTAR includes a series of audiocasts from various people in the testing industry. I’ve got one episode in that series: “Devs + Testers == Awesome” [1] I talk for about ten minutes on something I’m particularly passionate about: tight collaboration between testers and developers. I’ve long believed (through practical hard knocks!) that closer collaboration gets our customers better software. You’ll have to register on the site to listen to the audiocast (sorry!), but I think it’s worth it!...

    Know Thy Customer

    Sounds simple. Why is it so hard then? First, what do I mean when I say “Know Thy Customer?”  Ultimately I mean that the best teams have customer value at the heart of their software development processes – they truly “Know Thy Customer”.   I’m not saying anything new – however, I do want to talk about how to take this beyond simply “proclaiming” you know your customer or that you have a prioritized backlog down to some ways you can execute and engage. I’ve made many mistakes in my almost 20 years of developing software.  Lots and lots of technical ...

    New refactorings in JustCode

    In the last versions of Telerik JustCode we added some nice features that will help you quickly refactor your code, so let’s start right away. Convert If To Switch Statement JustCode now detects the if-statements that can be converted to a switch statement and suggests doing it for you. Place your cursor on the if-statement and hit Alt+Enter or choose the F menu from VisualAid, select ‘Convert if to switch statement’.   Convert If To Conditional Expression Another if conversion that we added is to convert an if-statement to a conditional expression (or ternary operator as some people call it). Place your cursor on the if-statement and hit...

    The Financial Face of RadChart for Windows Phone

    The Q3 2011 BETA release of RadControls for Windows Phone is on its way (expected within several days) and I cannot wait to share what’s new in our charting component.
