Postbot: Easy WordPress Scheduling for Photos

April 23, 2014 / / 0 Comments

If you’re a WordPress-using photo-blogger looking to save yourself some spadework, you might like this little tool developed by Automattic. Rather than manually scheduling posts for individual photos one at a time, Postbot lets you drag-and-drop your snaps to upload and schedule them automatically – you can edit the details for each image as they’re uploading to save time, and a post is created for each one accordingly.

To do that, the Redmond giant has rolled out a new version of its Virtual Machine Converter (MVMC) tool, version 2.0 for those of you counting at home.

Simplelenium, Writing Robust Tests with Selenium

April 16, 2014 / / 0 Comments

I use Selenium a lot. And I hate it! I hate it and I use it. Every other browser automation tool I’ve used either has the same problems as Selenium or end up dying because nobody uses it. There are nice librairies to make writing Selenium tests more user friendly. Fluentlenium is one of those nice tools. But Selenium’s problem is not really with its syntax. It’s the complexity of writing stable tests. It’s hell! It would be great if Selenium tests didn’t fail every other day If you test modern websites with Selenium, you end up playing with waits and timers. Very often people put random Thread.sleep(s) into their test code because they are just fed up trying to understand …

BitTorrent today announced its Sync file synchronization tool has gained support for network-attached storage (NAS) devices. The company has partnered with Netgear, which will offer BitTorrent Sync in its storefront, and says additional partners will be announced soon.
