JavaScript unit tests in Eclipse

Anybody knows what's currently the most popular tool for javascript unit testing?

While figuring this out, I made up a simple javascript unit tests integration with Eclipse to easily run precious tests from my favourite environment :-)



Unit tests are simple objects with functions to test and there's a couple of JUnit-style assertions. I wonder if the above view could be integrated with some real JS unit test tool.

    There's JsUnit (http://www.jsunit.net/), jsTest (http://thinkpond.org/articles/2008/jstest-intro.shtml) and JsTestDriver (http://misko.hevery.com/2009/12/04/there-are-lots-of-ways-to-tests-your-javascript-but-there-is-only-one-jstestdriver/)

    Nice one Jacek!

    Does this plugin run with ATF's or/and WTP's implementations? I think of a nice product to host this plugin ;)

    For pure JavaScript and Eclipse integration there's one I use in the e4 repo -- org.eclipse.e4.languages.javascript.junit.

    It really is just providing a specialized TestCase and using Rhino and JUnit under the covers and does not handle one clicking on a unit test to take you to source. With that said its very fast and works well enough for me and I've used it for 100s of tests.

Drawing in Graphiti

Image
It seems Eclipse Graphiti is really popular lately. Germany is using it to build cars, Engineers in India are getting to speed with it as well. Finally I made a try as well and fell in love with the simple APIs and helpful docs. The only thing that struck me is that most diagram editors out there are used mostly to draw just boxes and connections between them. Is that really all you can do!?!?? Ok so you here's what I did, a simple drawing tool in Graphiti: Click below to see it in action! And Fork it on Github Youtube video:

Trouble signing Apps for OSX Mountain Lion

If you're building desktop Apps for OSX, chances are you'll need or you're already working on getting them signed with Apple's certificate. Otherwise your users might see this, starting with Mountain Lion: I just signing few apps and scored new items in my erroropedia: Error 1: "Error signing data" $ productsign --sign 'Developer ID Application: YourCompany' from.pkg to.pkg productsign: signing product with identity "Developer ID Application: YourCompany" from keychain /Users/user/Library/Keychains/login.keychain Error signing data. productsign: error: Failed to sign the product.

Wedding table problem

Here's the old ancient wedding table problem that each man inevitably has to solve on his way to honeymoon. Research on the topic shows that some philosophers simplify this problem to set partitioning problem (not sure if they were on any wedding, or are they just dinning philosophers). Whereas others assign the problem to the social nature of participants. But I guess that for all my readers it's obvious that this is strictly mathematical subject and should be analysed from the algorithms perspective. Problem statement: Newlyweds are holding a party of n guests, where 2m of them comes in couples and the rest comes single. There's one long table with n chairs, split equally on both sides and each guest needs to have a chair assigned. Each couple has to together. Guests sitting next to each other, or on the opposite sides of the table are in talking range. There's a graph G(V, E), where each vertex represents a couple or single guest and each edge represents an acquai
