  • Automated Testing Clinic Follow-Up: Capybara-Webkit Vs. Poltergeist/Phantomjs | Engineering in Focus
    Automated Testing Clinic follow-up: capybara-webkit vs. polter... https://behindthefandoor.wordpress.com/2014/03/02/automated-... Engineering in Focus the Fandor engineering blog Automated Testing Clinic follow-up: capybara-webkit vs. poltergeist/PhantomJS with 2 comments In my presentation at the February Automated Testing SF meetup I (Dave Schweisguth) noted some problems with Fandor’s testing setup and that we were working to fix them. Here’s an update on our progress. The root cause of several of our problems was that some of the almost 100 @javascript scenarios in our Cucumber test suite weren’t running reliably. They failed occasionally regardless of environment, they failed more on slower CPUs (e.g. MacBook Pros only a couple of years old), when they failed they sometimes hung forever, and when we killed them they left behind webkit-server processes (we were using the capybara-webkit driver) which, if not cleaned up, would poison subsequent runs. Although we’ve gotten pretty good at fixing flaky Cucumber scenarios, we’d been stumped on this little handful. We gave up, tagged them @non_ci and excluded them from our build. But they were important scenarios, so we had to run them manually before deploying. (We weren’t going to just not run them: some of those scenarios tested our subscription process, and we would be fools to deploy a build that for all we knew wouldn’t allow new users to subscribe to Fandor!) That made our release process slower and more error-prone. It occurred to me that I could patch the patch and change our deployment process to require that the @non_ci scenarios had been run (by adding a git tag when those scenarios were run and checking for it when deploying), but before I could put that in to play a new problem appeared.

Denolle 1 4 4509 NE Sumner St., Portland, OR, USA 2 5 Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, Harvard University, MA, USA ∗ 6 Corresponding author: Joshua P. Jones ([email protected]) 1 7 Abstract 8 SeisIO for the Julia language is a new geophysical data framework that combines the intuitive 9 syntax of a high-level language with performance comparable to FORTRAN or C. Benchmark 10 comparisons with recent versions of popular programs for seismic data download and analysis 11 demonstrate significant improvements in file read speed and orders-of-magnitude improvements 12 in memory overhead. Because the Julia language natively supports parallel computing with an 13 intuitive syntax, we benchmark test parallel download and processing of multi-week segments of 14 contiguous data from two sets of 10 broadband seismic stations, and find that SeisIO outperforms 15 two popular Python-based tools for data downloads. The current capabilities of SeisIO include file 16 read support for several geophysical data formats, online data access using FDSN web services, 17 IRIS web services, and SeisComP SeedLink, with optimized versions of several common data 18 processing operations. Tutorial notebooks and extensive documentation are available to improve 19 the user experience (UX). As an accessible example of performant scientific computing for the 20 next generation of researchers, SeisIO offers ease of use and rapid learning without sacrificing 21 computational performance. 2 22 1 Introduction 23 The dramatic growth in the volume of collected geophysical data has the potential to lead to 24 tremendous advances in the science (https://ds.iris.edu/data/distribution/).

  • Npm Packages As Ingredients: a Recipe-Based Approach
    npm Packages as Ingredients: a Recipe-based Approach Kyriakos C. Chatzidimitriou, Michail D. Papamichail, Themistoklis Diamantopoulos, Napoleon-Christos Oikonomou, and Andreas L. Symeonidis Electrical and Computer Engineering Dept., Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki, Greece fkyrcha, mpapamic, thdiaman, [email protected], [email protected] Keywords: Dependency Networks, Software Reuse, JavaScript, npm, node. Abstract: The sharing and growth of open source software packages in the npm JavaScript (JS) ecosystem has been exponential, not only in numbers but also in terms of interconnectivity, to the extend that often the size of de- pendencies has become more than the size of the written code. This reuse-oriented paradigm, often attributed to the lack of a standard library in node and/or in the micropackaging culture of the ecosystem, yields interest- ing insights on the way developers build their packages. In this work we view the dependency network of the npm ecosystem from a “culinary” perspective. We assume that dependencies are the ingredients in a recipe, which corresponds to the produced software package. We employ network analysis and information retrieval techniques in order to capture the dependencies that tend to co-occur in the development of npm packages and identify the communities that have been evolved as the main drivers for npm’s exponential growth. 1 INTRODUCTION Given that dependencies and reusability have be- come very important in today’s software develop- The popularity of JS is constantly increasing, and ment process, npm registry has become a “must” along is increasing the popularity of frameworks for place for developers to share packages, defining code building server (e.g.

  • Enhancement of a Vulnerability Checker for Software Libraries with Similarity Metrics Based on File-Hashes
    Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Universität Hannover Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Institute of Practical Computer Science Software Engineering Group Enhancement of a Vulnerability Checker for Software Libraries with Similarity Metrics based on File-Hashes Bachelor Thesis in Computer Science by Huu Kim Nguyen First Examiner: Prof. Dr. Kurt Schneider Second Examiner: Dr. Jil Klünder Supervisor: M.Sc. Fabien Patrick Viertel Hannover, March 19, 2020 ii Declaration of Independence I hereby certify that I have written the present bachelor thesis independently and without outside help and that I have not used any sources and aids other than those specified in the work. The work has not yet been submitted to any other examination office in the same or similar form. Hannover, March 19, 2020 _____________________________________ Huu Kim Nguyen iii iv Abstract This bachelor thesis presents a software which checks a software project for libraries that have security vulnerabilities so the user is notified to update them. External software libraries and frameworks are used in websites and other software to provide new functionality. Using outdated and vulnerable libraries poses a large risk to developers and users. Finding vulnerabilities should be part of the software development. Manually finding vulnerable libraries is a time consuming process. The solution presented in this thesis is a vulnerability checker which scans the project library for any libraries that contain security vulnerabilities provided that the software project is written in Java or in JavaScript. It uses hash signatures obtained from these libraries to check against a database that has hash signatures of libraries that are known to have security vulnerabilities.

  • Investigating the Reproducbility of NPM Packages
    Investigating the Reproducbility of NPM packages Pronnoy Goswami Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Computer Engineering Haibo Zeng, Chair Na Meng Paul E. Plassmann May 6, 2020 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Empirical, JavaScript, NPM packages, Reproducibility, Software Security, Software Engineering Copyright 2020, Pronnoy Goswami Investigating the Reproducbility of NPM packages Pronnoy Goswami (ABSTRACT) The meteoric increase in the popularity of JavaScript and a large developer community has led to the emergence of a large ecosystem of third-party packages available via the Node Package Manager (NPM) repository which contains over one million published packages and witnesses a billion daily downloads. Most of the developers download these pre-compiled published packages from the NPM repository instead of building these packages from the available source code. Unfortunately, recent articles have revealed repackaging attacks to the NPM packages. To achieve such attacks the attackers primarily follow three steps – (1) download the source code of a highly depended upon NPM package, (2) inject mali- cious code, and (3) then publish the modified packages as either misnamed package (i.e., typo-squatting attack) or as the official package on the NPM repository using compromised maintainer credentials. These attacks highlight the need to verify the reproducibility of NPM packages. Reproducible Build is a concept that allows the verification of build artifacts for pre-compiled packages by re-building the packages using the same build environment config- uration documented by the package maintainers. This motivates us to conduct an empirical study (1) to examine the reproducibility of NPM packages, (2) to assess the influence of any non-reproducible packages, and (3) to explore the reasons for non-reproducibility.
