This experiment explores unit testing and coded UI testing, integrated with the development of a library consumed by a user interface, in Visual Studio 2013 Premium. You can download the source from github at https://github.com/matthewkastor/AutomationAndTestExperiment/ To use this solution you'll need Visual Studio Ultimate or Premium as the other editions don't support Coded UI tests. You can currently download a trial for either version if you'd like to do some experimenting. After opening the solution run BUILD -> Clean Solution, then BUILD -> Build Solution. Everything should compile without errors. If you have trouble, file an issue on the github repo and I'll try to fix it. https://github.com/matthewkastor/AutomationAndTestExperiment/issues
Integrate Ace Editor in CKEditor Source View
Integrate Ace Editor in CKEditor Source View
Have you ever wanted to have code highlighting and other advanced features in the CKEditor source view? Well, now you can! I've written up a script that will allow you to integrate any web based code editor into CKEditor's source view. It's extremely easy to do using my code. Simply set up a web page running your preferred source code editor in fullscreen mode and then use my script to inject it into the CKEditor. No more screwing around, just awesomeness in your editor!
Javascript: HTML documentation and Intellisense for Visual Studio
Problem: I want to generate HTML documentation for my JavaScript files and have intellisense support in Visual Studio. I do not want to write massive comment blocks to support this.
Solution: Write javadoc style comments for jsdoc toolkit per standard practice. The rest can be easily automated.
Turn PHP Built in Web Server into a Proxy
PHPMonkey? I wanted to use PHP to alter web pages and http traffic, so I downloaded many scripts that said they were PHP proxy. I didn't find any that really worked, they all just fetched the page, mangled all the links, and puked it back at me. I couldn't log in to any website, and if the site I was visiting used javascript to inject links, scripts, and all sorts of other dynamic content these so called proxies failed horribly. So, I figured I'd try writing one myself, and I've come up with something that works.
