Recently we have been doing quite a lot of hardcore customizations on Atlassian's Confluence.
Often we find ourselves in a situation where we would like to have more control over the application's default behaviour. Confluence allows us to override some of the velocity files, or extend the default actions into our own custom actions, but some times these don't seem to be enough. …
WebDriver is a new framework by Google for writing web automated tests. It is being merged with Selenium by OpenQA into Selenium 2.0, but as of Feb 19th, 2010, it is already available at http://code.google.com/p/selenium/ while the development is still in progress. Some of the advantages of WebDriver are a better and object-oriented API, use of browser-specific mechanisms to execute the tests and better support for advanced cases like drag and drop and dealing with pop-ups or multiple windows. …
AS Aqris Software's training program 2009, as supported by the EAS knowledge and skills development program and co-funded by the European social fund, enabled 12 employees to advance their professional career and development.
Writing and maintaining automated functional tests for web applications has always been a very complicated issue for us. We are usually between using Selenium or Canoo WebTest but regardless of the choice we seemed to always have to spend a lot of time fixing broken funcional tests and having trouble running them on continuous integration tools such as Cruise Control. Plus writing the tests itself was usually a very dull activity with all those xpaths and problems with Ajax calls, timers, etc. …
Spock is a testing framework based on the Groovy language but can also be used for regular Java projects. It is based on JUnit so running the test cases is as easy as running any regular JUnit tests, be it from an IDE or continuous integration servers. The framework aims to allow developers and testers to write specifications that are easily read and, ideally, may serve as documentation for actual code. …

I recently found this interesting article about UI test automation. I agree with most points mentioned there.
By definition the only thing that cannot be tested any other way than via UI is the UI itself - in a typical web application this means mainly JavaScript. However the good thing with JavaScript is that usually there are not many dependencies between different pages. …
In general design decisions are driven by either implementation problems or desire to improve readability. Interestingly I have found that for me the latter often drives refactorings inside existing classes but rarely creation of new classes. However creating new class to make important domain constraints or business rules explicit can be much more expressive than just introducing some new local variable or method. …
The thing that I seriously missed since I started to use Android Dev Phone 1 was Estonian Mobiil-ID. So in order to visit internet bank I had to use my ID-card again. And as I haven't bothered to set ID-card software up to my Gentoo box, I could only use bank services in Windows.
