| | | | | I've gone through the setup and daily use of a number of editors over the years including most current popular ones for front end development (i.e. sublime, atom, and vs code) and for me VS code is the best choice for front end development at the moment. The team has put a lot of effort into making it a great javascript experience out of the box and it shows (VS code itself is written in typescript and the team uses vs code to build vs code) and with some additional work you can have the best experience while writing javascript. | |

| | | | | Lets coin a name for a very special type of unit test: Schrödinger's unit-test: a unit test that passes but fails to test the thing we want to test. This test willnot fail This article focuses on our code scanning of 666 Python codebases to detect one such Schrödinger's unit tests. Specifically, this gotcha (which... | |

| | | | | In the past weeks, I was looking at several build systems. As it turned out, there is not a single sane generic build system out there. Autotools: Autotools are ugly, slow, and require an immense amount of code copies in the source tree. WAF: WAF is not as ugly as autools and it's faster and does not generate Makefiles or stuff like this. But it has serious issues: It requires one to copy it to the source tarball, has no stable API, and requires Python for building. Furthermore, support for unit testing is broken: It runs the unit tests, but does not abort the build process if the tests fail and does not display why the tests fail. | |
