Using WebAii to run JsUnit tests in TFS continuous integration builds
Inspired by the automation of functional tests with WebAii, I decided to bring our JsUnit tests on the same level as the NUnit ones – in the continuous integration build. As it turns out, automation with the WebAii framework was really easy – just a few lines were sufficient to integrate the test runner. Requirements The build agent should have the following: Cassini.dll in the GAC installed WebAii framework (adds browser plug-ins to IE and Firefox which make their automation possible) the build service should run on an interactive port, under the user that performs the build ... -
Release
JustCode. Retrospective of the last 2+ months.
Here's a short list of what we've managed to achieve during the last 2+ months since we released JustCode in November: We’ve fixed a lot of C# / VB.NET and JavaScript "Good Code Red" issues. "Good Code Red" issues occur when errors are reported by JustCode for code that actually compiles fine. We treat these types of issues with a very high priority as it's very annoying when errors and warnings are reported throughout the solution for code that works perfectly fine. If you still experience such problems, please report them to us and we'll fix them for the RC. You... -
Web ASP.NET AJAX
Embedding YouTube video in RadListView for ASP.NET AJAX
Have you ever thought of embedding a YouTube video in the context of a data-bound control? Recently, a client of ours asked for such a demo and this inspired me to create a code-library project that features this scenario and uses RadListView for ASP.NET AJAX as ‘videos host’. Depending on your goal, you can control the player via JavaScript code or you can just embed a static object. In the latter case you will need something like this: 1: <object width="425" height="344"> 2: <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/QT0e5XqNZdo&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b"></param> ... -

Calculated column in RadGridView for Silverlight + math expressions
When the data layer does not allow to perform calculations we often need to harness the UI. Here is a a simple case - in our business object we have the Price and the Count properties. We will have RadGridView to calculate the Total for us in a calculated column. Please download this sample project If you peek into the sample project you will notice we are using a pretty standard Silverlight approach : We bind the value of the calculated column with a Binding Converter : <telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="Total" Background="Bisque" DataMemberBinding="{Binding Converter={StaticResource CalculatingConverter}}" TextAlignment="Right" /> The calculation “logic” is in the Convert method of CalculatingConverter.cs public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture) ...May 27, 2021 2 min read -

Cascading ComboBoxes Selection in RadGridView for Silverlight and WPF
A common scenario when entering data is a cascade of comboboxes, where the list in the next combo is populated after selecting a value in the previous. A typical example is selecting a country from a combo then selecting from a filtered list of cities in a second combo. We have had tons of questions on how this can be done within a row in RadGridVIew so I decided to make a small demo. I have used a nice List of countries by continent. There are lots of ways to achieve this with RadGridView. Bellow I have tried to demonstrate...May 27, 2021 3 min read -

Sales Dashboard Application for Windows Forms
Shortly after the Q3 2009 release we developed the Sales Dashboard Application for Windows Forms - a composite business application for visualizing a company’s sales force performance. It is built with the Q3 2009 versions of Telerik’s WinForms components, RadChart for WPF, Telerik OpenAccess ORM, and implements the Telerik CAB Enabling Kit for WinForms, which helps in the development of smart-client line-of-business (LOB) applications. Since the interest in this application is still high, we felt the need to have a dedicated place to discuss this application. In case you have not played with it yet, download the source code, and enjoy! Also check: Silverlight/WPF Sales... -
