If one is developing some web application that uses a MongoDB database and one wants to demonstrate the application one might need some exemplary test data. This data needs to be created beforehand and it might be necessary to whipe the database between the creation of the test data and the demo.

Git allows the user to provied commit messages either via a command line argument or by opening a text editor with a commit message file that the user can freely edit. The obvious benefit of the latter is that one can use all the functionality of the chosen text editor and it is in general easier to write proper commit messages than when simply supplying the message via a command line argument. When freshly installing git on a linux system, the git command line client assumes that the vi text editor is installed and will try to use it to let users edit the commit messages.

In a normal Spring MVC environment one of the to start a job automatically is define a class in the web.xml which will be initiated after the spring context is load. One of the advantages of the spring boot is that is does not need any XML file configuration which makes many developers life easier.

It was really strange that the laptop did not boot. It looks like the battery was emtpy in the first place but also after applying power nothing changed. It also was odd that none of the leds glowed while the power adapter was plugged in.

For projects with significant test portfolio (over 5000 E2E tests) execution can take days. To speed up a process separation into different sets for distributed execution can be performed. The problem is that reporting on those lists must be aggregated manually afterwards.

I was at university when I got a text message from my sister, that our internet at home does not work. Once a month or so, the Modem (provided my A1) crashes and needs to restart. I told her to do so, but the problem kept on. When I got home, I called A1 if the internet is down, but they said it was up. When I then could not connect to the A1-Modem via the browser, I knew there was something going one and needed further investigation. The "diagram" below shows the network.

If you register a domain you have to set the DNS settings accordingly. So maybe you use different platforms to achieve this behavior. For example you could use "Hetzner Robot" only for the registration porpuse, altough it also offers the possibility to create DNS records with the correspondent editor, which is quite obsolete. But you could also use "DigitalOcean" which offers a more suitable DNS record editor for this concrete purpose. So you see that there are a few possibilities how you register a domain and set the correspondent DNS records.

In companies, there are usually many developers working on same project simultaneously. Code base is also rather big, and in later stages in the project duration of builds for an application rise. If few developers would like to evaluate their code on live system - it will take much time to wait for your turn to build, run and test your code. From economical reasons it is not possible to provide a separate server for each developer.

The first step before finding the best software development process for you is figure out what are they and what really means using TDD or BDD. TDD or Test Driven Development is a software development process based on repetition of very short cycles. These cycles follows the sequence: Add a test, Run all the tests and see if the new test fails, Write the code, Run tests, Refactor code and then Repeat the process. TDD is about to write the test first then write the code and keep it as simple as possible.

Maybe you are not the only one who has different java versions installed. Unfortunately windows does not automatically update the environment variable after installing/updating the java version. On startup Pentaho could not find the specified java version.
