Testing Tools
For our testing automation and testing environment, some time ago I did some research on the available tools and also evaluated some of them.
I thought, that the tools of list I found during the research (though I didn’t try all of them) would be worth sharing with readers:
- App Perfect
- Bugzilla Testopia
- J Meter
- Loadrunner
- Sahi
- Selenium
- Test Complete
- Test Director
- WAPT
- Winrunner/QTP
- Zephyr
I will try to add a small description for each of the testing tool in the above list.
PHP’s empty and isset function
The best way to check if a variable consists any value or is empty is to use empty function from PHP itself.
$myVar = 0;
if (empty($myVar)) {
echo '$myVar is either 0, empty, or not set at all';
}
Though, while coding in PHP it shouldn’t be confused with isset which checks if a variable is set or not set, whether that variable is empty.
$myVar = 0;
if (isset($myVar)) {
echo '$myVar is set even though it is empty';
}
Prayers and Hope
I was thinking to write something here but always couldn’t write. I am thinking of many things at the moment and I don’t know if I would be able to implement even one from them.
Let’s pray and hope that I could write a bit reqular here and continue on the projects I have started working on.
I have changed the theme so that it feels a bit fresh on my blog
