Few persons know the inside of the Clarendon story, or even that there is an inside not reached by the newspapers. It was a San Francisco sensation in the days before the fire, both because of the panic and menace that kept it company, and because of its close linkage with the governor of the state. Governor Dalton, it will be recalled, was Clarendon's best friend, and later married his sister. Neither Dalton nor Mrs. Dalton would ever discuss the painful affair, but somehow the facts have leaked out to a limited circle.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 305-315) and index.

Invoke TDD principles for end-to-end application development with Java About This Book Explore the most popular TDD tools and frameworks and become more proficient in building applications Create applications with better code design, fewer bugs, and higher test coverage, enabling you to get them to market quickly Implement test-driven programming methods into your development workflows Who This Book Is For If you're an experienced Java developer and want to implement more effective methods of programming systems and applications, then this book is for you. What You Will Learn Explore the tools and frameworks required for effective TDD development Perform the Red-Green-Refactor process efficiently, the pillar around which all other TDD procedures are based Master effective unit testing in isolation from the rest of your code Design simple and easily maintainable codes by implementing different techniques Use mocking frameworks and techniques to easily write and quickly execute tests Develop an application to implement behaviour-driven development in conjunction with unit testing Enable and disable features using Feature Toggles In Detail Test-driven development (TDD) is a development approach that relies on a test-first procedure that emphasises writing a test before writing the necessary code, and then refactoring the code to optimize it. The value of performing TDD with Java, one of the most established programming languages, is to improve the productivity of programmers, the maintainability and performance of code, and develop a deeper understanding of the language and how to employ it effectively. Starting with the basics of TDD and reasons why its adoption is beneficial, this book will take you from the first steps of TDD with Java until you are confident enough to embrace the practice in your day-to-day routine. You'll be guided through setting up tools, frameworks, and the environment you need, and will dive right in to hands-on exercises with the goal of mastering one practice, tool, or framework at a time. You'll learn about the Red-Green-Refactor procedure, how to write unit tests, and how to use them as executable documentation. With this book you'll also discover how to design simple and easily maintainable code, work with mocks, utilise behaviour-driven development, refactor old legacy code, and release a half-finished feature to production with feature toggles. You will finish this book with a deep understanding of the test-driven development methodology and the confidence to apply it to application programming with Java. Style and approach An easy-to-follow, hands-on guide to building applications through effective coding practices. This book covers practical examples by introducing different problems, each one designed as a learning exercise to help you understand each aspect of TDD.

An easy-to-understand guide that will get you acquainted with the core concepts of Selenium WebDriver Key Featuresa- Understand and work with the core concepts of Selenium WebDriver 3.0a- Learn how to design a Keyword driven framework with Database a- Find how to use Build triggers in Jenkins to automate tests DescriptionThe book starts by introducing the Selenium WebDriver 3 and Selenium Server by covering each aspect of it in detail. You will learn different concepts like instances and how instances relate to browser sessions. You will further explore the new features in Java 8 with the help of easy to follow examples. Moving on, you will create a Singleton class for fetching WebDriver instances and then explore the different kinds of waits in Selenium. You will then delve into the advanced WebDriver interactions using the Actions class and the JavascriptExecutor. You will then understand the various database operations which will help you with using the MySQL database to store our framework. Next, you will go through the TestNG framework, followed by parallel execution. Further, you will use Maven as a build tool and Jenkins as a build automation tool. You will go through the working of Selenium Grid along with Mobile automation. Lastly, you will be taken through Selenium 4 and it's AI integrated features.What will you learna- Learn the process of building a Selenium Framework a- Understand the Keyword Driven Framework concept a- Work with Document Object Model to access page elementsa- Integrate Maven and Jenkins with Selenium WebDrivera- Use Selenium Grid to run multiple tests across Who this book is forThis book has been designed for Automation developers who would like to build a Keyword Driven framework that fetches keywords from Database.

This book constitutes three challenges that were held in conjunction with the 24th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2021, which was planned to take place in Strasbourg, France but changed to an online event due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The peer-reviewed 18 long and 9 short papers included in this volume stem from the following three biomedical image analysis challenges: Mitosis Domain Generalization Challenge (MIDOG 2021), Medical Out-of-Distribution Analysis Challenge (MOOD 2021), and Learn2Reg (L2R 2021). The challenges share the need for developing and fairly evaluating algorithms that increase accuracy, reproducibility and efficiency of automated image analysis in clinically relevant applications.

This book describes microcomputer programs which can be used to simulate or analyse water production well and aquifer discharge test data. Computer graphics are used to help visualise the data, and output to plotters is also catered for. Simple confined aquifers, leaky confined aquifers, unconfined aquifers and a variety of boundary conditions are dealt with. The book and the microcomputer programs it describes will allow the reader to apply very flexible computer techniques to the analysis of his well and aquifer discharge test data. The speed of the microcomputer analyses will give the user the opportunity of looking at his data in more ways than he would otherwise be able to, thus giving insights into the data that would not otherwise be possible. The simulation programs permit the production of type curve data, which can then be used in comparison with the real data, or used in becoming familiar with the operation of the analysis programs. Although primarily intended for practicing hydrogeologists and universities teaching hydrogeology, this book would also be of interest to anyone having an interest in the effects of groundwater extraction. The programs will run on IBM PCs and compatibles with colour graphics.
