Repeated OS Reinstall For Application Testing?
Jan 20, 2010
So although we have plenty of keys from our subscription, to minimize tracking and confusion we just want to use2 or them over and over as we install, test, extended test, wipe and reload. Eventually we would have to recycle any way. Much of this will be scripted /automated and we were wondering what kind of problems we will run into for the activation cycle (human intervention required, phone call, etc.) Mostly working on Win7 (all versions) but still need to do some Vista and even XP.

I developed an application, which has the ability to save custom settings in application settings variables. The user saves his setings and it works perfectly. The problem is when i update the application to new version. I will be uninstalling the old version and install the new version. At this time all the user settings are set to default. How can i make my application to not distrub the user settings and keep them intact. Is there any alternate. PBL (Visual Studio 2010 Professional, Win 7 64 bit Ultimate)

After doing much programming, I came to know that testing and debugging are the most difficult and time-consuming phase of program development. User experience is imperative to an application's success, so ensuring the proper functionality of each feature is important. This discussion is to provide a step-by-step process that will help us to test our applications. It shall present testing best practices and highlight the common issues to avoid.There are many tools available for testing. I know some of them which I am going to mention below. I request msdn.com team and members to reply to this post and add some more points or tools that will help us.
a. Make sure design and page layout is consistent
b. Make sure there are no spelling or grammatical mistakes
c. Make sure the messages (alert, error, etc) are having no spelling or grammatical mistakes and are consistent.
Validate Functionality
a. Make sure all the form validations are done correctly. A program that is not robust will fail if you try wrong inputs like keeping the fields blank, inputting characters in place of numerics, -ve values where +ve is expected, large number of characters, etc.
b. Make sure the functionality desired from the page is complete in all aspects. For example, a page that is supposed to insert/update employee details does so correctly.
Prepare a test case document where you document test.In this document you simply write down the steps that you will perform to execute a test case, and results of test case execution. Complete test cases for the entire application in a similar manner.

I'm looking into adding some unit tests for some classes in my data access layer and I'm looking at an update routine that has no return value.It simply updates a row based on the id you provide at whichever column name you provide.Inside of this method, we collect the parameters and pass them to a helper routine which calls the stored procedure to update the table.Is there a recommended approach for how to do unit testing in such a scenario?

I'm building an Active Directory wrapper in VBNET 2.0 (can't use later .NET) in which I have the following:
IUtilisateur
IGroupe
IUniteOrganisation
These interfaces are implemented in internal classes (Friend in VBNET), so that I want to implement a façade in order to instiate each of the interfaces with their internal classes. This will allow the architecture a better flexibility, etc.Now, I want to test these classes (Utilisateur, Groupe, UniteOrganisation) in a different project within the same solution. However, these classes are internal. I would like to be able to instantiate them without going through my façade, but only for these tests, nothing more.

I want a sure-shot method to test if the application was run via the UAC box and has full administrative rights. Earlier, I thought of making a folder in C:Windows for testing but running it on other computers proved to be a failure!
The UAC box provides all administrative rights to the computer to do anything(including making folders and creating files in places which needs there rights) and also makes sure that any child program so called or created also does have the same rights as the parent.Is there a sure-shot way to test if my application has been provided all the administrative rights that I can maximum get by the user while running the application or not? If yes, I would be glad to have to piece of code-work!

I have recently finished a console application and deployed it to several computers on our network for testing. As it is just an EXE a copied to the hard drives of selected computers for now. When the app is launched it writes info to an sql DB so I always know which computers it is on.
During the past few weeks I have modified this app at least 6 times (improvements, adjustments, etc)
It is a paint to keep going back to the computers to update it with the new version, and getting mixed up which version i am on - LOL I am looking for advice on how I would go about doing this automatically, for example, it would be cool if I just had to put an updated file in a repositry and clients would use this to update.
In Visual Studio, when I view the properties of my application>assembly information - I can set a file version. Is it possible to extract this info and store it in a variable? I would like to dump the in my DB. Also I could then possibly compare the file version of the launched app against an updated file in a network share folder.

How do you reinstall and write over the previous dataset from a click once app? I assume that in a purchased version there are some added features with deployment and install. I am needing to delete the previous dataset when I uninstall. Currently,I am getting the first dataset AFTER I reinstall which leaves me with the mistakes and reason for reinstall not being fixed.

I am trying to verify connectivity from my application to various servers - For now I am only concerned with mail servers... (later SQL etc)Before anyone gets all upset and thinking this is for SPAM - wrong - these are to confirm connectivity from the application for sending logs OR to ensure the SQL conneciton is working appropriately - Those that want to SPAM can do this simply by getting LINUX and doing it for free with ANY mail client (I add this ONLY because MOST SMTP threads go unanswered... which is silly... there are MANY good reasons to work with mail within an application.....)So what I have tried is opening a telnet session, grabbing the output, and going from there...But it is not working.... the output contains nothing specific to the telnet session I initiate - and.... of course from the command prompt manually i DO get the proper responses
[code]...
I get the command prompt header, I see the commands... I see the prompts... but after the telnet command there is nothing I am assuming there is an issue redirecting telnet info and the telnet session terminates the second I try to read the data

I've run into a bit of a roadblock trying to figure out how to programmatically not allow the same data in multiple comboboxes. I'm usnig VS2008 and I have 3 comboboxes on a form, all with the same data, say "apple", "orange", and "red". The comboboxes are nothing more than a user definable sorting method on which gets calculated first. When I use the .SelectedItemChanged event on any of these, I'll obviously be duplicating. Any idea on how I can program to automatically switch the combobox that is duplicated to the value that is missing? I don't want to hard code it as further down the road I will have up to 7 comboboxes. Below is what I started with coding. Not sure if it is the best way to go about it, but it works on 4 of the 6 combinations.

Is there a way in LINQ to Entities (SQL) to identify all records where a specified word is repeated at least/less than a specified number of times?
I can do this in memory, looking for at least 3 instances of the word "word" using:
Where(Function(x) x.Description.Split("word").Count > 3)
However the Split() function cannot translate to a SQL equivalent, and so this can only be executed in-memory, which is excruciatingly slow by the time any number of records are involved.
The SQL to do this would be something like
WHERE Description LIKE '%word%word%word%'
And that's as far as I get - I can't work out how to get that SQL generated by LINQ to Entities. I tried the ugly hacky .Where(Function(x) x.Description.Contains("word%word%word") on the off chance, but I'm almost relieved that it doesn't work!

I'm trying to create a form with a lot of repeated components. I'm making a touch screen control system with a GUI in VB.net. I would like to make it so when a textbox is pressed a form pops up (form1.show()?). This form is basically a number pad. The user can press buttons (0-9) to get the desired integer to appear in a text box in the popup form. When the user presses an "Enter" button, the popup form returns the integer value that was entered to the initial textbox pressed.

I am trying to parse a string that contains known and unknown characters.here is an example:

If I have a project that I built in 2005 can I also work on it in 2008 and vice versa? What are the main differences from each version Also I deployed a project and it installs on the user computer with the name I installed VB 2005 with, not the name I use in project set up?? Is this common how can i change that without having to uninstall VB and reinstall with new name? Or is it picking that name up from somewhere else in my project?
