Romantically Challenged The Other Sister
By Ross Anthony
I screened this film at a special sneak preview the weekend of the 20th whose crowd was nearly unanimous in their responses. Filmmakers often make us laugh and cry in the same picture, "The Other Sister" accentuates these extremes. When our audience laughed -- they laughed in a wave. It's unusual for a group of 50 or more people to be tickled at the same time, but we were.
Carla Tate (Lewis), the "special" daughter of Elizabeth (Keaton) returns to the wealthy "Tate Estate" after spending many learning and growing up years in a "dedicated" institution. Momma Tate, combatting her guilt over that abandonment, sets out to make it up to Carla, now a young woman. Momma's smothering-mothering blankets her two other daughters as well. So you can guess mom's reaction when Carla wants to attend a "regular" college, have her own apartment and then (oh-my-gosh) date.
Danny (another "unique" individual) who enjoys riding buses and listening to marching bands, makes the move on Carla. "Will you be my girlfriend?" Carla silently rummages through her purse. Danny worries, "Are you getting the pepper spray?" The two fall in love. In a charming scene, they discuss the possibility of sex -- using manuals to make sure they get it right. "Man, who thought of sex in the first place?" ... "I think it was Madonna." These simple yet fresh responses make the movie sincere and humorous. Occasionally, however, restraint is lost and Carla blurts some predictably "usual" lines that had me wincing in pain. As for Danny and his unexpected quips -- they're completely adorable.
"Maybe we should wait for a holiday to have sex. Holiday's are special," Carla considers. Danny grimaces, "I feel special right now."
Aside from a few sticky moments (mostly in the early part of the film), "The Other Sister" is strong, rich with little details, and charming. But mostly, it impressed me with its hardy ability to tickle and tear its audience.
Side note: This is the third recent "O.S." film, and I liked them all: October Sky, Office Space, The Other Sister. Hmmmmm.
Starring Juliette Lewis, Giovanni Ribisi, Diane Keaton and Tom Skerritt. Directed by Gary Marshall. Produced by Mario Iscovich and Alexandra Rose at Touchstone.

Whisky galore! Largest ever collection could fetch up to US$10m
LONDON, Dec 9 — Scottish auctioneers hope to sell off 3,900 bottles of rare whisky for up to £8 million (RM42.8 million) next year in what they said would be the largest private collection of the tipple ever to go up for auction.
Colorado businessman Richard Gooding, who died in 2014 aged 67, amassed the collection over two decades, flying regularly to Scotland to visit auction houses and distilleries in a quest for some of the world’s rarest single malts.
Perthshire-based Whisky Auctioneer will sell the individual bottles in the so called “perfect collection” of Scotch at two separate online auctions next year. The collection includes the world’s most expensive whisky - a Macallan.
A single bottle of Fine and Rare Macallan from 1926 is expected to fetch up to £1.2 million. A 1919 Springbank from the collection is valued at £180,000-220,000. A rare 1937 Glenfiddich is likely to sell for £60,000.
“Its sheer scale and rarity makes it one of the most exciting discoveries in the whisky world,” Iain McClune, the founder of Whisky Auctioneer, said.
A bottle of Gooding’s favourite Black Bowmore from 1964 has an estimated hammer price of up to £17,000.
The collection includes bottlings from some of Scotland’s lost distilleries, including Old Orkney from Stromness Distillery and Dallas Dhu.
“Collecting Scotch was one of Richard’s greatest passions – an endeavour that spanned over two decades,” said Gooding’s wife, Nancy. “He loved every aspect of it; from researching the many single malt distilleries to visiting them and tasting their whiskies.”
Gooding, who kept the collection at his own private pub at his home in the Unites States, owned the Pepsi Cola Bottling Company from 1979 until 1988, when he sold it to its parent company PepsiCo. — Reuters

Design Doc: Master Server¶
For an overview of master server’s role, please refer to distributed training design doc. In this design doc we will discuss the master server in more details. The master will be implemented in Go.
Dataset¶
A dataset is a list of files in RecordIO format. A RecordIO file consists of chunks, whereas each chunk consists some records.
Task Queue¶
As mentioned in distributed training design doc, a task is a data shard that the master server assigns to the trainer process to train on. A task consists of one or multiple chunks from one or multiple files. The master server maintains task queues to track the training progress.
Task Queue Creation¶
Each trainer will make an RPC call (using Go’s rpc package) to the master server, telling it the RecordIO files representing the dataset specified by the user. Since every trainer will tell the master server the same dataset, only the first RPC call will be honored.
The RPC interface is:
func (m *RPCServer) ReportDataset(Paths []string, dummy *int) error { }
The master server will scan through each RecordIO file to generate the chunk index and know how many chunks does each file have. A chunk can be referenced by the file path and the index of the chunk within the file. The chunk index is in memory data structure that enables fast access to each chunk, and the index of the chunk with the file is an integer start from 0, representing the n-th chunk within the file.
The definition of the chunk is:
type Chunk struct { Idx int // index of the chunk within the file Path string Index recordio.Index // chunk index }
Chunks are grouped into tasks, and tasks are filled into the todo queue. The pending queue and the done queue are initialized with no element.
The definition of the task is:
type Task struct { Index int Chunks []Chunk }
The elements in the tasks queues is of type
TaskEntry
, containing a timeout counter (described in task retry logic), and a task:type TaskEntry struct { NumTimeout int Task Task }
The definition of task queues is:
type TaskQueues struct { Todo []TaskEntry Pending map[int]TaskEntry // map from task index to task entry Done []TaskEntry }
Task Queue Persistence¶
The task queues need to be persisted on etcd for fault recovery. Since the task queues only change once a task is completed or timed out, which is not very frequent, we can afford to synchronize with etcd every time the task queues change.
We will serialize the task queues data structure with gob encoding, compress with gzip, and save into etcd synchronously under key /task_queues
.
Task Dispatch¶
The trainer will make an RPC call to master to get a new task when:
- the trainer first started, or
- the trainer finishes a task.
The RPC interface is:
func (m *RPCServer) GetTask(finished *Task, result *Task) error {
}
Argument finished
will be nil
when the trainer is just started.
During the RPC call the master will do the following:
- Make a copy of the task queues, and update the copy reflecting the finished tasks and the new pending tasks.
- Synchronize the copy of task queues with etcd using a transaction conditioned on holding the master lock.
- Replace the task queues with the copy and report to the trainer with the new tasks if succeeded, or discard the copy and report the error to the trainer if failed.
Task Retry Logic¶
When a task is dispatched to the trainer, the master will schedule a function for execution after the timeout duration (based on the moving average of task completion time). If the task entry in still in the pending queue, its timeout counter will increase by one, and the task will be moved to todo queue. If the timeout counter is above the threshold, the master will log the error and discard the task.
Please note that since a timed out task could be completed after it has been dispatched for retry, so it is possible for a task to be processed multiple times. We do not try to prevent it from happening since it’s fine to train on the same task multiple times due to the stochastic nature of the stochastic gradient decent algorithm.

Blog with Jekyll
First of all, we should define what jekyll is and what it does. It is a parsing engine bundled as a ruby gem used to build static websites from dynamic components such as templates, partials, liquid code, markdown, etc. Jekyll is known as “a simple, blog aware, static site generator”....

Publish static site on github pages
You should add a new repo named ‘«yourgithubusername».github.io’. Then push your static site to this repo. When a request arrives, github will be looking for a file named index.html. Your index.html file will be served to your guest. Deploy your site git clone https://github.com/<<username>>/<<username>>.github.io $ cd username.github.io $ echo "Welcome...

Hello blog!
This is my first entry, i will try to publish my experinces about coding and life. Enjoy!!


Reports for WebSoft
S01
1) Did you before know about the techniques Git, GitHub, Markdown and/or GitHub Pages?
We have previously worked with Git and GitHub in our school projects. I was familiar with some of the commands used today like commit, push, clone, git status, mkdir etc. But I did not know about git pages or adding tags.
2) Have you ever created websites before?
I have not worked with creating websites before. But i have experience using JSON files from our Software Engineering course. We also have experience in working with http protocols and restApi from the Network Applications course.
3) Briefly explain your experience and knowledge of web application development.
As mentioned, unfortunately, I have not worked with web development before, but I did some very small side studies on JavaScript React. I think as you showed us today on the job application, it is one of the necessary tools to know nowadays. websites are one of the main tools that companies use to communicate with their clients, and it is key in increasing the popularity of the companies. I also think websites are a really cool way to give people information, in a way they can read and understand.
4) What is your TIL for this course section?
Today I learned more about git commands, how to create git pages, how to create a file and add it to your git repo, and how to add tags to your commits. I also would like to mention that the way you walk us through everything, step by step, is really helping in understanding it.
S02
1) Have you any previous experience of HTML, CSS and/or JavaScript?
I did not work with any of them before, however I worked a bit with styling on JavaFx, as well as on android platform. Which on both you are not having a separate styling sheet(CSS) or a separate skeleton like html. there is only an XML file that you can use, in order to style your components.
2) Explain the role of HTML, CSS and JavaScript in web development
HTML is what the web page is going to look like. It has the components of the page inside of it and it is a skeleton for the webpage. CSS is how the page is going to look like, it is a styling sheet for the HTML components. So that you can connect your HTML file to the CSS file and style your components. JS allows you to have executable code in the webpage. Its used to create responsive, interactive elements for web pages, enhancing the user experience.
3) Give a brief explanation of how the browser, the HTTP protocol and the web server interacts.
The browser complies the code and it uses HTTP protocols to interact with the web server. in oder words, the browser request a resource from the server, and the server responses back with the resource, and this communication is done over HTTP protocol.
4) What is your TIL for this course section?
Today I have learned about HTML elements, CSS and a bit of java script. Today we have worked with CSS mostly, and how to style the webpage using it. Also how to inspect elements using the browser. For example, how to change the colors, fonts, shapes of elements.
S03
1) Do you have any previous experience of client side JavaScript?
I have not worked with Js before at all. I just have studied a bit on it and watch some small tutorials.
2) Can you compare and relate the JavaScript language to any other language you know?
In some ways I can find similarities to Java, for example the logic of it, as well as some functionalities like "function" seen we had something similar in java (Methods). However it is not surprising since they are both programming languages. However I found javaScript, easier to understand. It basically have this "simplicity" that I like more, than in Java. JavaScript is also easier to debug than java to me.
3) Describe how you worked with the coding exercise, what grade do you aim for and how did your code turn out to be?
I aimed for grade 5, however it required more time than I expected. I started my way up from grade 3, the fetch function took the most time for me, but then I could be more comfortable with grade 4 requirements. Right now I am on grade 4, although I have added the hiding/ showing functionality for flags required for grade 5.
4) What is your TIL for this course section?
This section helped me to use CSS and HTML more and learn them better. As well as, since we started with JavaScript, I started to learn about functions like fetch and event listeners, and some functionalities like Timers. I also learned about HTML tables and how to style them.
S04
1) Tell me about your previous experience on node/npm or any equal programming tools.
I have not worked with node.js before this course. However, since I had to start learning it because of my thesis project, I started to watch some tutorials about it before we reach this section of the course. On the thesis project we have also worked with npm package manager to install the dependencies.
2) How do you feel about working with JavaScript, Node and Express?
As I have mentioned in previous reports, I started to like javascript a lot. I like how simple and straight forward it is to understand. I also think node.js makes it a lot easier for JavaScript programmers to take care of the backend side of their programs by not needing to learn a new language.
3) Explain how you did take on the coding assignment, did you have a plan and did it work?
I started with following the preparation and googled where I was stuck. after completing the preparation I tried to use it and connect it to those parts of the actual task that was needed.
4) What grade did you aim for and was it a difficult level?
Frankly, I got a bit behind my timing plan for this task. Since I have 2 other projects going on at
the same time I couldn't put the time I wanted to for achieving grade 5, so I just went for grade
3.
the instruction of the task was quite straight forward so I did not have a problem with getting
along with grade 3.
5) What is your TIL for this course section?
I learned how to set up a server with node and express. Also how the middleware works with express.
S05
1) How do you feel about PHP as a programming language?
PHP was easy to start with to me, I suppose for a server side application PHP can be easier to use.
2) Can you compare PHP to other languages you know?
I would like to compare it to javascript, however javascript is a client side and php is a server side language. Since they were both new languages to me, one similarity to me was that it was easy to start with them. That can be because I was not new to programming and I knew Java already. I also really liked that javascript could be executed in the browser while PHP cannot. On the other hand php supports databases.
3) Describe how you took on the coding exercise, what grade did you aim for and are you satisfied with the result?
I started with watching some tutorials on YouTube, then followed the preparation to install the tools needed. I had some difficulties getting the XAMPP to work but in the end I managed. I aimed for grade 3 and I finished the task for that grade.
4) What is your TIL for this course
In this part I learned about basic programming in PHP and get going with connecting it to a database.
S06
1) What is your own opinion on the popularity of programming languages and what are your thoughts of future popularity among programming languages?
Based on the tiobe.com website, at the moment Java is at the top of the list. C and Python are next
accordingly. However, I think JavaScript will get higher in the list if we give it some time.
Based on the survey that StackOverflow published at the end of 2019, JavaScript was on the top of
the list as the most popular based on google searches and job ads.
Check the survey on
StackOverflow here.
2) What will be your own choice for selecting future programming languages?
Although I feel more confident in java since I started with JavaScript I feel like I can relate to it
more and I am interested in the differences of it from Java. one of the reasons I would choose
JavaScript is that it has a lot of frameworks that you can use, so there is a lot you can do without
building it from scratch. Also since it is a popular language, in case of having problems, it is
easy to find solutions because there are probably already people who asked that.
For the
backend, I would choose either nodeJS express or Python.
nodeJs because then I can have the
same language for both front and backend. Python because of its strengths in connection to the
server-side and fetching data.
3) Do your investigation on https://trends.google.com (Links to an external site.) to customize your comparison on programming languages (or frameworks) and elaborate on the results.
I have compared JavaScript, PHP , Java, and nodeJS.
in the past 5 years in Sweden Java was the
most popular, then JavaScript, PHP, and nodeJS accordingly after.
4) If you were to recommend a language/framework/technology to your potential employer and your next large project, what would it be and how would you “sell it”?
I would suggest JavaScript for front-end because of the same reasoning I have above and PHP or Python for making APIs and taking data from database.
5) What is your TIL for this course section?
I have learned about the tools available to find out the latest trends in IT and how to do a small research about the latest technologies. Also what to value when it comes to big projects and how to decide wisely about the tools being used.
S07
1) Try to explain the platform .NET (C#, ASP.NET) to a skilled programmer, but newbie to this Microsoft technology.
.Net frame work is based on OOP (Object Oriented Programming) so like Java in provides Interfaces, abstracts, etc. .Net is strongly typed (maybe not as much as type script) and it contains a lot of pre built in methods and syntax.
2) Elaborate by comparing .NET technologies with the other technologies we learned during the course.
.Net platform is a computing platform layer that is positioned above the windows operating system.
Also, .Net is language independent and supports multiple languages such as c# and J# and it offers
different technologies and services that are needed in order to build applications. I have chosen
PHP, one of the programming languages we learned during the course, to compare with .Net :
First thing to notice is that PHP is an open source, server side language while .NET is licensed.
PHP is interpreted and .net needs to be compiled.
PHP is mostly being used to build websites while .NET is also being used for developing desktop
applications as well as web.
3) Describe how you took on the coding exercise, what grade did you aim for and are you satisfied with the result?
I started to prepare myself with the preparation examples. Then I moved on to the tasks. I started
with the console application which was easier. On the console application I did not have much of a
problem since I could find a lot of similarities in how I would have written the code in Java.
The Web application was a bit more complex. However since we have had worked with json file and
fetching previously in the course and how to put it in an HTML table, it went smoothly. I have aimed
for grade 3.
4) What is your TIL for this course section?
In this part of the course I got to learn about .Net frame work and technologies, and how to fetch, read and use the jsonReader class in a C# program. I also learned about how to have a basic web application in C# and how to generate and use different classes (Models,Services) inside the program.
S08
Link to the google sheet:
you can find the link to the google sheet here
Edmir Suljic and I chose tretton37.com, eppnetwork.com, and hkr.se.
These three websites are chosen based on the common interest that we had/have in them. hkr.se is our
school website, tretton37.com is where we are taking our internship at, and eppnetwork.com is a
website that we contributed with, to make an android application for them.
The similarities of these websites are that they are not used by tons of people at the same time
daily, like for example facebook.com, so we decided to compare websites that are kind of on the same
level of accessibility to make the comparison fair.
Based on the the definition that Google has for google audit, web performance audit calculate
factors independently to show the websites response time and performance, as well as suggesting code
examples to replace with the less efficient code.
lighthouse report suggested the following for the websites that we tested :
tretton37.com: Unused CSS can be removed which will results in 0.45 s of time saving.
Minimization of main-thread work.
Reduce javaScript execution time.
Not to use HTTP/2 for
all of its resources. (30 requests not saved via HTTP/2).
Not to include front-end JavaScript libraries with known security vulnerabilities.
eppnetwork.com: Avoid enormous network payloads.
Having a more efficient cache policy.
Avoid chaining critical requests.
hkr.se: Consider lazy-loading offscreen and hidden images after all critical resources have finished
loading to lower time to interactive.
Remove dead rules from stylesheets and defer the loading
of CSS not used for above-the-fold content to reduce unnecessary bytes consumed by network
activity.
Consider reducing the time spent parsing, compiling, and executing JS. You may find
delivering smaller JS payloads helps with this.
What is your TIL for this course section?
I have learned about tools for performance testing a website and how to make the websites response time faster. Auditing the website in general will help in a better performance experience. An audit also gives you a baseline for data-driven development.
S09
1) Elaborate on a few (3-5) different security issues or concerns, from your own experience, related to web application security and relate them to the OWASP top ten.
1- Login Authentication: showing user’s username and password on network tab when sending the
request to the backend!
It makes this possibility for hackers to find user’s credential and they can reveal easily user’s
personal data (which is against GDPR). This problem is mentioned in OWASP as "A3-Sensitive Data
Exposure".
2. SQL injection: being able to login to the web page without having a valid password! It means that
we only check if the username is right and we do not check the password. It means that everyone who
has the username, can get logged in and have access to user’s personal data (which is against
GDPR).This is also the first on the list of OWASP. According to OWASP this problem can happen in any
kind of system such as a web program written in PHP while sending data to MySQL database, when the
program is transferring the user input to a mail server, and etc.
3. Websites should create a cookie session and session ID for each valid session. These cookies
usually carry important data like username, password and probably user’s personal information. When
the session is ended (when the user gets logged out or timeout or browser closed abruptly), these
cookies should be invalidated. If they do not get invalidated, the data will stay in the system and
hackers can have access to the user’s personal data easily by checking the cookies. This problem is
also mentioned in the list as "A2-Broken Authentication".
2) Summarize by providing your own guidelines to a new web programmer on the topic “The essential guidelines to follow to create secure web applications”.
As users are trusting to us by proving their personal information, then we are responsible to keep their information hidden in all ways. Our highest priority should be providing a safe web app for users. We can easily make that by multi-factoring authentications. It means that instead of asking users to type their passwords, we can use other ways like face-recognition. And we can add timeout session for making cookies invalid!
3) What is your TIL for this course section?
In this part I have learned about the common weaknesses and vulnerabilities that hackers can use to misuse and access websites, how they usually happen and what is the solution to fix them.I also have learned about GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) framework and some of it guidelines.


The following was originally published in The St. John's Express (Newfoundland Canada). The copyright is held by both the author and Robinson-Blackmore Publishers. http://www.rb.nf.ca/express/expcol5.htm
Star Wars: impressive, but offensive By Mikel J. Koven 'A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away.' Those words still echo through my memory, when 22 years ago, an excited nine-year-old saw Star Wars for the first time.
It changed all of our expectations about what could be shown in a science fiction movie. Over two decades later, and 16 years after the last installment of the series, Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace may very well be the most anticipated film in cinema history. Unfortunately, although noteworthy for the unprecedented hype, special effects, and anticipated box office, it will not be remembered as the kind of classic Star Wars was.
Set a generation before Luke, Leah, and Han battled the dark side of the Force, Episode I presents us with Queen Amidala (Natalie Portman - a democratic monarch?) who is placed in the unenviable position of watching as the evil Trade Federation invade her planet of Naboo. Jedi master Qui-Gon Jinn (Liam Neeson) and his young apprentice, Obi Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor) are sent to negotiate a peace settlement with the Federation. While moving the Naboo queen and her court to safety, their ship crashes on Tatooine (remember, that's where Luke came from), and there they meet a 10-year-old wunderkind named Anakin Skywalker, who just may be the prophesized one who will bring 'balance to the Force'.
The press notes identify five separate storylines in Phantom Menace, and that is probably the first indicator this movie has gone seriously wrong. George Lucas, the mastermind behind the entire Star Wars legacy, has returned for the first time to the writer/director's chair since his 1977 epic, and in the interim it looks like he forgot how to tell a story. Ever notice how little kids tell the plot of their favorite movies? "So the Queen goes and does this. And then the Jedi guy goes and does this. And then they get together. And then the ship crashes. And then ... yadda, yadda, yadda."
That is how Lucas wrote Phantom Menace; it does not feel like a script as much as an outline for a script. There is no character development, or emotional engagement with any of the characters. Lucas writes like a five-year-old with Attention Deficit Disorder. Any single plot line in the movie would have been sufficient to develop a film around. With five separate storylines, nothing gets beyond the level of a blueprint. We identified with Luke Skywalker, because he was 'us', the every man, trapped on a desolate rock with dreams of something better. His adventure was our adventure, and why we go and see movies like this is to vicariously experience that which we never will. There is no one to identify with in The Phantom Menace. Therefore there is no one to care about.
Because of this, Phantom Menace feels very cold. For all of its positive messages about heroism and spirituality, it is profoundly misanthropic; an anti-human picture. So misanthropic, in fact, that Lucas, disappointed with Natalie Portman's voice, altered it with a synthesizer. Yes, the special effects are fabulous, but they should support the human cast, not the other way around.
Even more disturbing is the blatant racism of the movie. To dismiss the characters as just fantasy figures is not a valid argument. Lucas, to his credit, develops definite cultures for his alien races, but unfortunately, he chooses Earth stereotypes as his models.
The invading Trade Federation are clearly modeled on the Japanese. And at the beginning of the movie, when we first see Queen Amidala, I was struck by how Chinese the costumes and sets were. I thought this might be an interesting exploration of Japan's imperial take-over of Asia in the 1930s. Nope, just racist stereotypes.
Then we meet comic relief Jar Jar (computer generated, but voiced by Ahmed Best), and he takes us to his 'under the sea' colony on Naboo. Since an African-American actor is the voice of the character, it is reasonable to expect that the character will take on some of those cultural and ethnic attributes. But in the 'sub continent' (get it?) of Jar Jar's people, the African stereotypes flourish, even with an Idi Amin type leader.
Finally we get to the slave owner who owns Anakin and his mother, and has them working in his shop. With his clearly hooked nose, stubbly beard, and his unscrupulous business practices, not to mention his 'Mediterranean' accent, I couldn't figure out whether he was supposed to be Jewish, Arab, or even Italian, but then I'm not so sure Lucas makes a distinction between those groups either.
Having your invaders modeled on the Japanese, your comic relief based on African-Americans, and your shifty business men Semitic are too specific cultural references, and presented too stereotypically. So on the one hand, I was horrendously offended by the blatant racism of this movie. But on the other hand, the special effects are impressive. Unfortunately, too much of the spectacle has already been given away in TV ads and 'behind the scenes' footage on Entertainment Tonight. The big adventure moment, the fight scene between Darth Maul, Qui-Gon and Obi Wan, has been ruined by advanced promotions: we know that Darth Maul uses a two-ended lightsaber, so it's no surprise when he lights up the other end, punctuated with a musical 'ta-da'. It was months after the initial release of Star Wars that we got the 'making of' specials, which demonstrated how those amazing effects were done. Now we've been so inundated with information about the movie before hand, it all feels anti-climatic.
This is not to say the movie isn't a fun two-hour time waster. It is. And Ewan McGregor does a great impersonation of Alec Guinness. Science fiction fans in general, and Star Wars fans in particular, are an undiscriminating lot. They'll see Episode I - The Phantom Menace a dozen times, buy as much merchandise as their student loans will allow, and sell out movie houses for months. I know I'll be among them. But when even the fan reviews are luke warm there is something wrong. Rating (out of 4): ** 1/2

Welcome to the home of Busybee's configuration documentation. The definitions are auto-generated using Typedoc and while not perfect for documenting the JSON config that a user must provide, Typedoc served as the quickest path to achieving thorough and maintainable documentation of the models that user-provide JSON is mapped to once parsed. We will likely re-visit our documentation strategy in the future
In order to run Busybee one must first set up a top-level config.js/json
file which will be parsed by Busybee at runtime and mapped to the BusybeeUserConfig model. The BusybeeUserConfig is where a user will define not only the TestSuite(s) but also the available compute resources available to Busybee. Please reference the BusybeeUserConfig for more information on how to structure your config.js/json
.
Busybee provides a test schema for testing REST api's. If a REST api is what you would like to test with your TestSuite then configure the type
as 'REST'
and provide RESTTest files. When you run busybee test
if everything is configured properly your RESTTest will be parsed and used to run requests against an already running REST service or one that Busybee has provisioned for testing purposes.
In many cases you will want Busybee to spin up your Service(s) being tested and then tear them down afterward. In order to do this you must provide a startScript
and a stopScript
. This are simply .sh
files that will be called once Busybee has identified an available resource to provision your test environment to. Busybee will pass all of the necesssary information to your startScript
and stopScript
as json so that you can provision your environment accordingly.
Example of parsing json passed to startScript using the jq
commandline tool.
#!/bin/bash

The only additional requirement of a USER_PROVIDED
TestSuite is that a runScript
is configured. The runScript
will be called once an envirnmonet has been provisioned and is ready (in the even that Busybee is configured to do so) or once an existing environment has been confirmed to be ready. The runScript
is where you should run your test commands, reporters, etc. A successful run should return an exit 0
