I am considering a few topics (thinking to only do one) for
WOWODC'09 in San Fran this June. I'd appreciate some feedback on
which ones are of the widest interest.
1. Testing
Someone else is going to be doing a session on testing covering TDD,
Mocks, Example Objects, Acceptance/Integration/Unit tests, Demo of
building an application with TDD. Is there enough interest in a
second session? I'd plan to cover:
- using TestNG for unit testing (focus on the mechanics of using
TestNG vs JUnit)
- functional testing with Selenium without using ERSelenium
(focusing more
on the functional side than on the developer driven side, how to
work with
the business folks to create functional and acceptance tests)
- writing and using extensions to SeleniumIDE and SeleniumCore
- generating and interpreting test coverage reports from EMMA
- using JMeter to load test WO apps
Most definitely testing - esp Mocks etc with EOF.
2. EOF from Form Submission to Save Complete
A detailed look at what happens from when a form value comes in at
takeValuesFromRequest, through validation, sending the SQL to the
database, handling returned exceptions, and propagating change
notifications. This might be a really evil one to prepare for if I
go into full detail.
3. Leveraging EOF Validation and WO Components
- extending EOF's validation (GVC, Wonder, Validity approaches)
- dealing with an EOGeneralAdaptorException in a user friendly way
- getting pages and components to manage recording and displaying
validation messages without you needing to get involved (aka
WOComponent 2.0)
2 and 3 are complementary to each other (and to testing mind you).
Other requests will be entertained. :-)
Basic topics like "What is WebObjects and what do each of the
frameworks do? An overview." are probably worthwhile in general (or on
the wiki). JavaBusinessLogic - what's that?
Development life-cycle approaches. Design and implementation.
The mechanics of writing an eoadaptor ;-)
