Java Rehabilitation Clinic

Not long after Ben persuaded me to join the fledgling Reevoo, we got our first big ReevooMark partners (Dixons & Currys) live. To celebrate this event and my having left Java behind at Thoughtworks, Ben bought me a Java Rehabilitation Clinic mug. The mug has recently developed a crack. I wonder if it’s trying to tell me it’s time to learn another language…

CruiseControl.rb for Mocha

James Mead — Thu, 05 Apr 2007 12:59:00 +0000

We have our own home-grown continuous integration application at work, but a couple of weeks ago, I decided to have a go at getting CruiseControl.rb up and running at home for Mocha. It all went pretty smoothly and I’m happy with the result. Thanks are due to the CruiseControl.rb team for clear instructions and a simple-to-use application.

I’d like to publish the url for my CruiseControl instance, but I’m concerned about random punters clicking the build button and loading my already creaking server, so a screenshot will have to suffice for now…

It would be nice if you only saw the build button if you were logged in. I feel a feature request coming on…

On a related note, it’s great to see that there has been some effort going into getting a RubyOnRails CruiseControl.rb instance set up.

It’s good to see that a team from my old company has caught the Mocha bug…

Jay Fields describes how his team have been using Mocha to achieve Ruby on Rails Unit Testing in less than 1 second.
