Learn 'how to code'

So today I was just reading and going through the tech news and I found out an extremely cool and interactive website that helps people to 'how to code'. So here i am presenting a review for the pretty pretty site I loved :). This site is for all those tech and geeky fellows out there who loves coding or wish to seek career in development.

The site is called Codecademy, presented by Zach and Ryan. It’s a startup, a global hit indeed which just raised a 2.5 Million funding, which teaches you how to code in lessons form. A user is presented with an editor in which he is guided with step by step programming courses. On clearing some steps he is transferred to next step, a next lesson, he is also presented with virtual rewards and badges. After clearing and learning basic programming concepts he is then taught with JavaScript concepts.
Codeacademy Home page
The site is open for all, to post and share different programming lessons. Available topics are JavaScript, Python, Ruby, C/C++, Java, PHP, Objective-C, Lisp,C#, Haskell, Scala, Erlang and Others.

You can register yourself to enjoy and help the team in bringing out more to the site. I think it’s a pretty cool site and should be checked by any beginner who likes to code, even the guys not Liking to code can check it out as well, I am sure there time will be utilized in a good way. Enjoy learning and Coding.

LoadRunner Controller

This is my second post from the HP LoadRunner series. As I discussed earlier, here I will be discussing an overview of LoadRunner Controller . So before going into detail, let me recap the prerequisites. Create script – Checked Replay Script – Checked Updating script if required (Add transaction, Parameterization and Content Check) – Checked  Runtime settings and Iterations – Checked Assuming the script is absolutely fine i.e. error free and ready to be passed on Controller, let us get familiar with the UI first. I will be using LoadRunner 9.5, the screens may vary at your end depending on the version you are using.   The UI The Controller has a Title bar, Menu bar, tool bar and a Status bar. After these we have multiple sections or panes.   The first is Scenario Groups pane. We can add multiple scripts or a single script and name them as a Group.  Next is Scenario schedule, here we define how the load will be passed and executed. We have two types of scenario group.

All about Dates using QTP

Majority of applications have Calendars controls. Automating a calendar can be painful at times if the textbox is disabled, and it only works if you select the date from the calendar widget provided on your website/application. I have been working on date controls for couple of months so thought about sharing all the findings with you people. So here i am summarizing some of the checks which can be handy working on date/Calendar controls. '''''' '''''' Compare start and End date For comparing end date validation, set today's date using Date function in start date textbox and set previous date in end date, and check if the validation is fired.   '''''startdate - set as todays date using 'date' Browser("").Page("").WebEdit("").Set Date '''''End date, set prev 5 days date Browser("").Page("").WebEdit("").Set DateAdd("

Working with WebRadioGroup

QTP WebRadioGroup means a radio button on the web page. Identifying and working with them can be easy or difficult. Sometimes they works out fine and at times executing the same code gives you error. If you have two radio buttons on the screen for example Gender selection options the code below might give problem. Browser("").Page("").WebRadioGroup("").Select "M" Where "M" can be the id or the value of the radio button (Spy the object). So what is the problem in the code above? As there are two radio buttons QTP identifies them as same, so we need to differentiate between them. Index is a property by which you can differentiate, it tells the position of the object. So if we write the same code below with an additional index property it will work fine. Browser("").Page("").WebRadioGroup("html id:=" ,"index:= 1").Select "M". This code is intended to select a radio button among two, what
