Tutorials - SWS Wed, 23 Jul 2008 21:53:44 +0100 http://www.exforsys.com/tutorials/sws/soa-evolution.html SOA Evolution In the 1980s, applications were mostly vertical, built to meet the customer requirements in a vertical market segment. The software solutions were sufficient to meet the needs of a vertical industry.

We saw that the integration itself may be restricted within an Enterprise or may involve third parties (B2B or B2C). Service-Oriented Architectures are complex.

A name can be invalid if it contains an illegal character, or if it has already been used. Tutorials - Swing Testing Sat, 12 Jul 2008 08:41:14 +0100 http://www.exforsys.com/tutorials/swing-testing/the-name-test.html The name() Test Like the wasCancelled()method, the name() method is not thread-safe, so our test class needs another boilerplate helper method: Tutorials - Swing Testing Sat, 12 Jul 2008 08:39:13 +0100 http://www.exforsys.com/tutorials/swing-testing/the-wascancelled-test.html The wasCancelled() Test The first of our API tests is to check the wasCancelled() method. We will basically do three investigations. The first test will call wasCancelled()before the dialog has been cancelled. The second test will cancel the dialog and then call the method. In the third test we will enter a name, cancel the dialog, and then call wasCancelled().

This thread could just be an anonymous inner class in the init()method: Tutorials - Swing Testing Fri, 11 Jul 2008 02:03:22 +0100 http://www.exforsys.com/tutorials/swing-testing/unit-test-infrastructure.html Unit Test Infrastructure Having seen the broad outline of the test class and the UI methods needed, we can look closely at the implementation of the test. We'll start with the UI Wrapper class and the init() and cleanup()methods.

The text field is a sensible size. The Ok button is disabled. The Cancel button is enabled. The dialog is a sensible size.

Tutorials - Swing Testing Thu, 10 Jul 2008 10:45:54 +0100 http://www.exforsys.com/reviews/books/swing-extreme-testing-book-review.html Swing Extreme Testing Book Review Swing used to be a simple component offered as an add-on for Java. This plug-in can be used as a GUI (graphical user interface) to develop as an add-on for the Java application. It has the ability to emulate certain platforms eventually building a powerful application. With this plug-in, users will experience the full potential of Java as it uses its native capability and with the help of Swing, different web development languages are added to the application. Swing’s ability to emulate eventually made this plug-in one of the most popular and important tools in Java development that it eventually became part of Java development package.

As we discussed earlier, we have set up the ServiceMix as a separate web service gateway in front of the actual web service deployment. Now we have to check whether we can access the WSDL from the ServiceMix. For this, we can point our browser using the standard WSDL query string, like: Tutorials - Java SOA Fri, 20 Jun 2008 18:08:15 +0100 http://www.exforsys.com/tutorials/java-soa/xbean-based-servicemix-http-binding.html XBean-based servicemix-http Binding For XBean-based deployment of servicemix-http, our xbean.xml matches the following: Tutorials - Java SOA Fri, 20 Jun 2008 18:05:56 +0100 http://www.exforsys.com/tutorials/java-soa/deploy-the-web-service.html Deploy the Web Service As a first step, if you haven't done it before, edit examples.PROPERTIES (provided along with the code download for this chapter), and change the paths there to match your development environment.

Since the servicemix-http component can be configured in both the consumer and provider roles, we have two sets of configuration parameters for the component. Let us look into the main configuration parameters: Tutorials - Java SOA Fri, 13 Jun 2008 19:27:01 +0100
