Apple - Apple Watch
A smarter way to look at fitness.
Apple Watch gives you a complete picture of your all-day activity. The three rings of the Activity app show your daily progress and help motivate you to sit less, move more, and get some exercise. It’s also an advanced sports watch, giving you real-time stats for a variety of the most popular workouts. Over time, Apple Watch learns your activity and fitness levels. It uses that information to improve the accuracy of your measurements and suggest personalized all-day activity goals. It even provides custom reminders to encourage you to achieve them.
Fully Testing Your Software
Fully Testing Your Software
What Does “Fully Testing Your Software” Mean?
What is the definition of fully tested software? Fully tested software is code that has been validated and tested to such an extent that all concerned parties (QA, software engineers, project owners, etc) have ‘high confidence’ that the code will perform exactly as intended once released to production.
The phrase, ‘high confidence’ has relative meaning depending on the threshold of the individual or organization doing the testing. At what percent of your codebase being tested do you have high confidence that it is fully tested and will work exactly as intended when it reaches production? Is it 1%, 10%, 25%, 50%, 98%? Would you like it to be 100% or do you think 100% is unattainable? Are you fully satisfied with anything less than 100%? What the percentage of your codebase being tested will give you the high confidence to say to your Chief Architect, VP of Engineering and other major decision makers, “Yeah, the code is fully tested and ready to go to production”?

Software Testing: Reactive vs Proactive
In some testing environments, there is a belief that using production data to test your software will ensure that you will find bugs and therefore create the right tests both in quality and quantity.
There are too many things wrong with this way of testing. If one is waiting for bugs and edge cases to be found in production in order to fix and prevent bugs in the code base, then it points to major weaknesses in the testing environment. Some of these weaknesses include:
- Inadequate testing prior to production deployments which leads to the high probability that many bugs will appear in production yielding a bad user experience and possibly the corruption of production data.
- Few, if any, unit tests for testing small blocks of business logic.
- Few, if any, integration tests to check the results of larger interacting units of code.
- Few if any load tests to check the code under load.
- Little to no functional tests, manual or automated, to validate the user interface is stable and bug free.
- Test data that is written around production data is production dependent which means, as soon as the production code changes (and it will), all of the tests dependent on static production data conditions and formats will fail or at minimum become obsolete and no longer used.

Software Testing Needs Test Data Generation
While talking to some colleagues via IRC today, we were discussing funny pictures related to bugs in software. As we all laughed and shared different images, I started thinking. Have we become too accepting of bugs in our applications? I often hear things like “Every system is going to have bugs” and “No application is bug free.” Are these true statements? Absolutely. Do they have to be? Maybe not.
For most software engineers (myself included at one time), testing software was a burden. We don’t have time to test. This product has to be ready now. VC is pressuring us to deliver. These are really just excuses. Testing software has gotten a lot more advanced in the last decade. Tools like Spock, Geb, Selenium, Robotium, any many others have made testing fun and enjoyable. But no tool is enough all on its own. Complete software testing requires unit tests, integration tests, functional tests, acceptance testing, automation, QA cycles, reporting, and dare I say, most importantly, test data.

A GenRocket Philosophy For Data Generation
At the end of this month, I’m going to have the opportunity to present GenRocket to my local tech group. I was asked to provide a title for my talk and a small description. While I pondered that, I tried to think of what really sets GenRocket apart from other means of data generation.
As I let my mind run in many different directions and several tangents, I kept coming back to something that really wasn’t GenRocket specific, although, something that it excels at. It isn’t a specific feature. It is something that our CEO has been referring to as a GenRocket Philosophy.
Most people still think about data generation in terms of databases. I’ve written before about GenRocket’s ability to think outside of the database. One of our clients came to us in the middle of a project with no real tests and no test data. They needed GenRocket to solve two main problems:
- GenRocket should generate enough test data to get them to 100% code coverage.
- GenRocket should seed the platform with enough data so they can demo to potential customers.

New Feature: Import Your Database Schema
We just released GenRocket version 2.1.0 last week. One of the new features of this release comes from a common question that seems to come up quite often when we’re talking to folks about GenRocket: “Can I import my existing database into GenRocket?”. We held off implementing this feature for a while for a few reasons.
- GenRocket isn’t a database copy tool. We’ve found that when generating test data, rarely do you need every column in your database mapped directly into GenRocket.
- GenRocket defines relationships between Domains at the Scenario level. Reading in a database full of foreign keys wasn’t going to gain much for our users.
- GenRocket isn’t just for databases. We have Receivers that write to XML, JSON, CSV, and even just to memory. Data generation needs extend well beyond columns in a database.

In my last blog I asked, “What is the definition of fully tested software” and further defined that “Fully tested software is code that has been validated and tested to such an extent that all concerned parties have ‘high confidence’ that the code will perform exactly as intended once released to production”.
My statement has provoked a deeper conversation on what it means to fully test your software. Some were frustrated with my definition because they felt it wasn’t definitive enough, some think the idea of fully tested software is ridiculously unattainable, some agreed with the general tenor of the definition and are themselves trying to achieve 100% code test coverage, while others are seeking more opinions as to what fully tested software means. To all of you I say, bravo and thank you for your honest responses; my definition bares much scrutiny because it is relative and subject to one’s own standard of perfection.
Test Data Loader Design Pattern
Test Data Loader Design Pattern
Prologue
If you have access to or the ability to automate and generate large amounts of simple to complex test data, it will inevitably force you to rethink how you go about testing your software. We’ve spent a lot of time learning, crafting, and perfecting the best practices for testing with good test data. In that time, we’ve come up with great design patterns that have enabled us to test more thoroughly, promote projects to production much quicker and with way fewer bugs. One such design pattern is the Test Data Loader (TDL) Design Pattern.
Introduction
The Test Data Loader (TDL) design pattern provides a model for loading test data using a common set of components that interact with each other via a common interface.

Unit Testing: Still Necessary. Still Faster.
There has been an interesting trend in the last couple of months based around the idea that Unit Testing is not as important and we, as developers and testers, should be focusing more on integration testing. Take for example this article titled Test-induced Design Damage. This article states that:
“One conclusion of this is that I think it’s a mistake to try to unit test controllers…Controllers are meant to be integration tested, not unit tested.”
The author is really talking about the Rails framework here, but I think it is important to focus on this misconception without worrying too much about the driving technology. Before I dive too deeply into my thoughts on this topic I feel like I should define some terminology so that my point might come across with more clarity.

Our Test Data Philosophy
We believe that GenRocket represents the future of test data generation. No need to prune existing data files or generate test data by hand, no need to store the data files and have them go stale, no more need to “manage” the test data. Generate all the test data you want when you want it, run your tests, and then delete the data when you are done. Fast, flexible, and cost-effective. It just makes sense.
