A couple weeks ago I was discussing a technical architecture with a consultant working for a client of mine. After this, we ended just small-talking about this and that in tech, and ended up discussing “the blockchain” and “cryptocurrency.” Much to the surprise of the other consultant, my judgement of the blockchain is that it […]
Model-based Testing II: The GUIening
The modeling business is all about looks. Delicate lines, color composition, presentation all coming together. Ok, I’m done with a bad attempt at a bad analogy. Reports of my death are greatly exaggerated. As is the existence of such rumors. While I’ve been quiet about my MBT Workbench, this is in part because I have […]
A Silver Bullet for Students?

It’s interesting, though; I just heard about a study performed at Harvard to combat the dilemma that laptops in class help some students while it distracts others. One could of course forbid using laptops altogether to protect those they distract, but […]
Relevant Parameters for Testing

I still owe a video demo and an update on the report generation, but between cultivating a healthy hate of JasperReports and not feeling like investing 5-10 hours […]
