JRuby Co-Developer to conduct Workshop on JRuby, Testing Java with
Ruby
JRuby's tight integration with Java technology, together with
outstanding libraries and frameworks from the Ruby world, makes
development easier and more agile, while losing out any of the
advantages of the Java platform. Now JRuby's co-developer himself,
ThoughtWorks' Ola Bini, is coming this summer to India's biggest
summit for the developer ecosystem - Great Indian Developer Summit
(http://www.developersummit.com/) to demonstrate how to use JRuby
build GUI applications using Swing, how to build web applications
quickly using JRuby on Rails, and how to use JRuby to test your Java
applications, using JtestR.
Ola Bini, an expert on Java, Ruby and LISP, will also conduct a
workshop to get you up to speed on using JRuby. After a quick intro to
Ruby and JRuby, the tutorial will show examples covering how the Java
integration features work, how to use JRuby for testing and how to
create Java Swing interfaces using one of the several frameworks for
this. The second half of the tutorial will focus on JRuby on Rails,
starting with a quick introduction to Rails, and then showing how you
can improve your productivity by integrating Rails with your existing
Java infrastructure.
Ola says the current way of testing in Java is cumbersome and not as
practical as it could be. In contrast, the Ruby community is spending
much time on continuously improving testing techniques. In his session
on April 24, Ola will cover he way most testing of Java code is done
currently, the problems with these approaches, how Ruby and its
several frameworks can be used for good effect to test Java code,
utilizing JRuby. The entire presentation will work around several code
examples to make the testing concrete and useful.
Ola, the author of APress' Practical JRuby on Rails is known to like
implementing languages, writing regular expression engines, YAML
parsers and other similar things that exist at the border computer
science, so attendees can gain many more valuable ideas from this top
expert in the developer ecosystem.
