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

  • 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.

In addition to these steps, this document provides (5) a troubleshooting guide for IntelliJ projects for this course. 1. Install a Java compiler. We will be using Java 11 from AdoptOpenJDK, which supplies a free Java Development Kit (JDK) with an open-source license. Click on the following link. https://adoptopenjdk.net For the version, select OpenJDK 11 (LTS), which stands for Long Term Support. For the JVM (Java Virtual Machine), select HotSpot. Follow the usual procedure for your platform – Mac, Windows, or Linux – to install the JDK. 2. Install a Java Integrated Development Environment (IDE). We will use an IDE from JetBrains called IntelliJ IDEA. Here is a link to the JetBrains IntelliJ IDEA page. https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/ Click the Downloads button to get to the downloads page for your platform. The page shows two versions of IntelliJ IDEA – Ultimate for enterprise development and Community for free open-source. Select the Community version, download it, and install it on your machine.

  • Using an IDE
    Using an IDE Tools are a big part of being a productive developer on OpenJFX and we aim to provide excellent support for all three major IDEs: NetBeans, IntelliJ IDEA, and Eclipse. Regardless of which development environment you prefer, you should find it easy to get up and running with OpenJFX. We hope you will return the favor by submitting patches and bug reports! This section assumes that you have already succeeded in Building OpenJFX. A gradle build must complete before IDE support will fully work (otherwise your IDE will just be a glorified text editor with lots of red squiggles!). Specific instructions for using each IDE is provided below, followed by a discussion on Developer Workflow, Using Mercurial, and Communication with other members of the team. Further information on how we work can be found under Co de Style Rules. IDE Pre-Requirements Get a build of the latest JDK Get an IDE that supports the latest JDK JDK-8 Only: Delete jfxrt.jar (or move it to a different directory) Using NetBeans (JDK-8) Invoke NetBeans Add the JDK8 Platform Import the NetBeans Projects Rebuild Run Sample Code Run Sample Code with gradle built shared libraries Using IntelliJ IDEA Open the IntelliJ Project Make Run Sample Code Run Sample Code with Gradle Built Shared Libraries Using Eclipse Import the Eclipse Projects Configure Eclipse to use the latest JDK JUnit tests Running a dependent project Run Sample Code (NOTE: old) Using Gradle Run Sample Code with Gradle Built Shared Libraries (Note: old) IDE Pre-Requirements Despite the fact that most of the major IDE's support gradle directly, we have decided to provide pre-generated IDE configuration files in order to make using an IDE smooth and painless.
