Testing Google syntax highlighter plugin...

public override object EditValue(System.ComponentModel.ITypeDescriptorContext context, IServiceProvider provider, object value)
        {
            if (provider != null)
            {
                editorService = provider.GetService(typeof(IWindowsFormsEditorService)) as IWindowsFormsEditorService;
            }

            if (editorService != null)
            {
                DockableItemCollection items = value as DockableItemCollection;
                if (items == null)
                {
                    items = new DockableItemCollection();
                }
                DockableCollectionEditor itemEditor = new DockableCollectionEditor(items, editorService);
                editorService.ShowDialog(itemEditor);
                value = itemEditor.Items;
                context.OnComponentChanged();
            }

            return value;
        }

I hope the above sample code is highlighted and formatted properly

If you have method, which does the string reverse. So normally we writes test cases in Nunit something like this

[Test]
public void TestCase1()
{
ExString exString = new ExString();
Assert.AreEqual("dcba", exString.Reverse("abcd"));
}

[Test]
public void TestCase2()
{
ExString exString = new ExString();
Assert.AreEqual("abba", exString.Reverse("abba"));
}

This means, you are repeating the same code again and again in order to test different possibilities. The down side of this approach is, in long run it will be very difficult to manage the test case when compared to the actual code.

To solve this particular problem NUnit has got parameterised test cases attribute, so the same could be re write above test case to

[TestCase("abcd", "dcba", TestName = "Test Case 1")]
[TestCase("abcd1", "1dcba", TestName = "Test Case 2")]
[TestCase("aaaa", "aaaa", TestName = "Test Case 3")]
[TestCase("abba", "abba", TestName = "Test Case 4")]
public void Can_Reverse_A_Text(string actual, string expected)
{
ExString exString = new ExString();
Assert.AreEqual(expected, exString.Reverse(actual));
}

This gives a clean way for testing different possibilities, all these shown in the NUnit test runner as different test cases like below.

Hope this will help in some way or other

[ad#ad-3] Google chrome(0.2.149.30) has got some problem in rendering the checkboxes. Today I thought about buying a new laptop, so I was searching for a laptop that will fit into my budget and requirements. And I came across a website called http://www.compareindia.com/products/laptops/ , I was using Google chrome for browsing, but when viewed that page it was like this

 

There was no way for me  to narrow my search because I couldn't select any of options listed under "Narrow your  Search" section, but after sometime i.e after doing some scrolling and switching tabs checkboxes appeared on the left side of this list

[ad#ad-2]

Initially I thought that, it will a problem with the way that page was developed(may be some JavaScript issues), but when I opened the same page in Firefox(3.0.1) it was rendering properly, even in IE 6 is rendered that page correctly.

  I think this is a Chrome bug; I have reported this , follow this URL http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=3151 if you have experienced same problem.

Even the master fails sometime – the best example is the error I got from the google search.

update: When I tried to contact them via error@google.com I got a “Mail delivery failed” error :)
