    Московский государственный университет имени М.В.

Научный руководитель Прус В.В. Москва 2010 Аннотация В данной работе описывается подход к решению проблем сложности графического интерфейса пользователя для интегрированных сред разработки программ, заключающийся в создании однооконного интерфейса. Этот подход предполагает удаление инструментальных окон – дополнительных окон среды разработки – и перенесение их функциональности в окно текстового редактора. Создание однооконного интерфейса включает обзор существующих интегрированных сред разработки программ, построение проекта однооконного интерфейса и частичную реализацию построенного проекта. Обзор сред разработки описывает организацию инструментальных окон и сами инструментальные окна популярных сред разработки программ. Результатом обзора является модель инструментальных окон, описывающая классы инструментальных окон, обобщенные инструментальные окна и их функциональность. За счет этой модели дальнейшие рассуждения абстрагируются от конкретных сред разработки программ. Далее в рамках полученной модели инструментальных окон создается проект однооконного интерфейса. Для этого рассматривается каждое обобщенное инструментальное окно и предлагается способ замены его функциональности. Предложенный проект однооконного интерфейса частично

Your eye spends a non-zero amount of energy to scan, parse and join multiple characters into a single logical one.

  • How to Communicate with Developers
    How to Communicate with Developers Employer branding, job listings, and emails that resonate with a tech audience Developers are one of the most in-demand groups of employees these days. And guess what, they noticed this as well: Countless approaches by potential employers, sometimes several messages a day through Linkedin, and a few desperate recruiters even cold calling. So those with technical talents are by no means oblivious to the talent shortage. The good news is that they don’t just use this bargaining power to simply negotiate the highest salaries and most outrageous benefits. Instead, developers are intrinsically motivated. They are looking for the right place to work. Your challenge in this noisy jobs market is to clearly communicate what defines your employer brand, what work needs doing, and, ultimately, who might be the right fit for the role. All of this is easier said than done. Because tech recruiting is a complex business, it is easy to not see the forest for the trees. This guide will help you decide where to start or what to fix next. In the first and more general part, we would like you to take a step back. Before we even think about how to package our job opening and approach a candidate with our offer, we look at what information and knowledge you should gather about your tech team and the company at large. Following that, we will take a practical look at how to write and talk about your company and the role, with a special focus on the job listings and a recruiting emails as a first introduction.

Java Script appeared for the first time in 1995, as a scripting language supported by Netscape Navigator. JScript is Microsoft's variation for JavaScript. © 2008 Haim Michael ECMA Script In 1997 Java Script 1.1 was submitted to the European Computer Manufacturers Association (ECMA). ECMA Script, defined by ECMA-262, is the standard Java Script language. ECMA Script defines the very basic parts of the language, including the following: Syntax, Types, Statements, Keywords, Reserved Words, Operators and Objects. © 2008 Haim Michael ECMA Script Each browser implements ECMA Script in a different level.

  • Watchdog for Intellij: an IDE Plugin to Analyze Software Testing Practices
    WatchDog For IntelliJ: An IDE Plugin To Analyze Software Testing Practices Master’s Thesis Igor Levaja WatchDog For IntelliJ: An IDE Plugin To Analyze Software Testing Practices THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE in COMPUTER SCIENCE by Igor Levaja born in Pozarevac, Serbia Software Engineering Research Group Department of Software Technology Faculty EEMCS, Delft University of Technology Delft, the Netherlands www.ewi.tudelft.nl c 2016 Igor Levaja. All rights reserved. WatchDog For IntelliJ: An IDE Plugin To Analyze Software Testing Practices Author: Igor Levaja Student id: 4318110 Email: [email protected] Abstract Software testing is as old as software development itself – they could not exist one without the other. However, are they equally important? Do software develop- ers devote an equivalent amount of time to both produce software and to test it? An ongoing study of the TestRoots project aims to examine and improve the state of the art of software testing and answer those questions, by observing developers’ everyday behavior. In order to support this effort, we evolved WatchDog, a single-platform software, to become the scalable, multi-platform and production-ready tool which assesses de- veloper testing activities in multiple integrated development environments (IDEs). We further used WatchDog platform to perform a small-scale study in which we examined testing habits of developers who use IntelliJ IDEA and compared them to those of the Eclipse IDE users. Finally, we were able to confirm that IntelliJ users, similarly to the Eclipse users, do not actively practice testing inside their IDEs.
