Surround SCM on August 26, 2010
A week or so ago I was working on “owner code reviews” for changes made during the Surround SCM 2011.0 development process. Part of our code review process is that every source code file is “owned” by a developer and, when another developer makes a change to a file you own, you review it. While I was reviewing files it occurred to me that it would be really nice if the Surround SCM GUI Client had an “Open with Finder” or “Open with Explorer” option that made it easy to open a file with the default application configured for that the particular file extension. For example, Qt UI files would open with “Qt Designer”, header and source files (.h, .c, .cpp) would open with Xcode, etc.

When working with web applications that use things like session variables, you need to modify your load script to accommodate these dynamic values. To show you how this works, I will use a web application developed in ASP.Net Many web applications created in ASP.Net use view state, which is used to persist states across postbacks.

Many web applications allow users to upload binary files, like pictures, documents, or music. Those activities can be some of the most resource-intensive aspects of a web application. QA Wizard Pro includes built-in support for load testing upload actions.
