Getting Out of the Office
There is nothing we like more than writing code...but when we're not writing code we love getting out on the town to meet all of you that are using Icenium. Over the past couple of weeks we've had a ton of fun doing just that. We visited Las Vegas and San Francisco for the HTML5 Connections conference and QCon respectively and had a chance to show of Icenium and answer lots of questions. It was a blast, and we'll be doing a lot more of it.November 14, 2012 2 min read -

RadSlideView for Windows Phone: One Step Closer to the Native Photo Browsing Experience
With our Q3 2012 release last month, we introduced a new functionality in RadSlideView: Filmstrip mode. This feature brings this control even closer to the native photo browsing experience of Windows Phone. As you might have noticed, with RadSlideView you can zoom-in an image and see more details, but when you zoom-out, you can't zoom any further than fitting the image to the available screen-size. Not anymore. The new mode allows you to see the adjacent images if you zoom out enough and quickly browse all images by pan and flick gestures. To leave this mode, simply zoom-in or tap some... -

White Paper: Getting Started with Test Automation
We’ve just posted up a white paper I wrote on getting started with UI test automation. The whitepaper has nothing to do with Test Studio (examples are even in WebDriver via C# !). Instead it focuses on the fundamental things you’ll need to work on in order to have a successful future with UI automation. In the paper I cover a broad range of topics including: UI Automation is a difficult domain. Seems obvious, but you have to acknowledge it up front! Locators, locators, locators. Learn how they work, then learn how the work in your environment. Working ...November 10, 2012 1 min read -
