What is protocol testing?
- Jun 8th, 2008
Protocol Testing:
I think it can be a term used to refer to testing whether a networking device works properly or not, by verifying the functionality of the device with various protocols.
well, I know i confused you with this statement....let me put it simply:
Testing of various protocols on a networking device, to verify the device's conformance to the standards defined by the protocols.
- Apr 18th, 2009
Protocols are used for communication between software functions, software modules, software components, software packages, or even between the software and the user. Information security is constantly endangered by errors in the contemporary protocol implementations. The goal is to support pro-active elimination of faults with information security implications. Awareness in these issues is promoted. Methods are developed to support customer driven evaluation and acceptance testing of implementations. Improving the security robustness of products is attempted through supporting the development process.
- What type of testing it is?
- Primary key null check

Interesting article introducing the topic of native advertising and why it matters.
Jeff Domansky's curator insight, May 5, 2014 2:23 AM
Lots of action in native advertising but the marketing ROI is still a big question.
Denis Failly's curator insight, March 29, 2013 2:10 AM
If you adopt Native advertising don't forget, i's not a Ad banner, it's (interesting and high quality) content to create, publish...with the aim to generate leads.
So work your design too , ith LP and CTA.
Angela Heath's curator insight, March 17, 2014 11:53 AM
Interesting! My personal belief is that when you first start out with limited time and money, you do your research and find out where your audience hangs out. Then you target about 3 popular watering holes and you provide valuable content there -- dominate. Once you dominate there, you move to additional channels as time and money permit.

Im really stuck now with the play framework and the jasmine plugin made by the guardian newspaper, https://github.com/guardian/sbt-jasmine-plugin.
I have gotten jasmine to run with play test, but i get issues because of require.
Trying to load my app or other modules I want to test in test.dependencies.js. This results in error
MISMATCHED ANONYMOUS DEFINE() MODULES. All my js files are wrapped in define. This means that it all crashes and the test is never run.
Trying to call define around the describe to call on my modules I want to test in the current specc. This results in error was:
InternalError: Couldn't read source file "./test.js: ./test.js (No such file or directory)". (rjs/r-2.0.1.js#2114).Its really hard to see where it want to try to load from. But its r-2.0.1.js which creates this error.
Im trying to call
require()on the curent js file I want to test,file is called test right now. This results in error was:
Error: Module name "test" has not been loaded yet for context: _.Not sure what I should do.
Im trying to call require on the current js file, but in absolut path, I want to test. This results in that it works. BUT only if I write something in the function variables. This can be whatever. If I remove the variable in the function call in define(function(variable) {...}) it results in error was:
Error: Module name "test" has not been loaded yet for context: _.
Trying to require just test, file name is test.js. This results in error was:
InternalError: Couldn't read source file "./test.js: ./test.js (No such file or directory)". (rjs/r-2.0.1.js#2114)Same weird thing here when a random variable is with or not.
Trying to require with a variable for the absolute path, so I just have to put it one place. This results in Error: Module name "path..../test.js" has not been loaded yet for context: _ Meaning that the absolute path is there, but for some reason I get the not loaded. I can even console log the variable before trying to require, and its correct.
The weird thing cannot be resolved with defining an empty list in define. But only with a variable in the function. Unless I actually define something in the define array.
Hope someone have some insight into this. I am really lost.

More items for
Program/Project Management
A bridge deck in Oregon is coming apart just a year after completion, triggering a coast-to-coast legal showdown over who is to blame.
The dustup involves Portland's Morrison Bridge, which underwent a $4.2 million rehabilitation project in 2011 and 2012 that replaced the lift span's open steel deck grating with fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) panels.
Shortly after the deck was finished in March 2012, it started cracking and shifting, and fasteners were popping loose. County engineers have maintained that the bridge is still safe.
Originally opened in 1958, the Chicago-type bascule bridge carries six lanes of traffic and about 50,000 vehicles per day over the Willamette River.
Suits and Countersuits
Conway Construction, the Ridgefield, OR-based contractor that completed the project, says that the bridge's owner, Multnomah County, chose the FRP decking manufactured by ZellComp Inc. in North Carolina and supplied by Strongwell Corp. in Virginia.
In June, Conway filed suit against ZellComp and Strongwell, alleging that the system was "not appropriate nor adequate," although ZellComp told the county it was. Conway denies responsibility for the problem.
The county then decided to get involved in the suit, filing as an intervenor in the case in September. The county added negligence and breach-of-contract claims against both Conway and ZellComp (not Strongwell), saying that the debacle has cost it more than $2 million.
A fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) deck on the Morrison Bridge in Oregon started coming apart shortly after its completion in 2012. The contractor says the decking was "not appropriate nor adequate" for the project.
While waiting for the lawsuit to proceed (a trial date was expected to be set Friday, Oct. 11), the county's Board of Commissioners voted Thursday (Oct. 10) to move forward with a proposed settlement with Conway, OregonLive.com reported.
'Substantially Less'
Details about the proposed settlement were not released, but the county called the amount "substantially less" than what Conway is seeking.
"The settlement resolves the contractor's payment claims for additional time and work performed on the Morrison Bridge rehabilitation project," county spokesman Mike Pullen said in a statement reported by The Portland Mercury. "The settlement amount is substantially less than the contractor's claimed amount."
Pullen added: "As part of the proposed settlement, a portion of the settlement funds will be held in reserve pending resolution of the County's claims for problems with the Morrison Bridge decking. The settlement does not prevent the County from seeking compensation against the contractor or others for the bridge decking problems."
17,000 Square Feet of FRP
When Multnomah County announced the deck completion, it boasted the use of FRP, stating, "FRP is a relatively new material that is also strong and light weight, but offers the added benefit of a solid surface. ... The $4.2 million project improves safety for bridge users, because the new solid deck surface provides greater traction for motor vehicles."
The Multnomah County Bridge Section manages six bridges over the Willamette River and 20 smaller bridges throughout the county.
ZellComp has also touted the material and its use on the Morrison Bridge on its website, stating, "At over 17,000 square feet, this FRP bridge deck will be the largest in the United States and one of the largest in the world."
The Morrison Bridge opened in 1958 and carries about 50,000 vehicles per day over the Willamette River.
A request for comments from the county, Conway and ZellComp were not immediately returned Friday (Oct. 11).
Conway's Complaint
Conway's June lawsuit against ZellComp and Strongwell alleges that ZellComp's deck system was "not appropriate nor adequate" for the bridge project, but that ZellComp had told the county that it was. Travelers Casualty & Surety Company of America, which supplied the construction payment bonds, is also a plaintiff in that action.
The complaint alleges that ZellComp provided defective materials to Conway, including cracked and incorrectly sized panels, causing Conway to delay construction and expend additional materials and labor to install the deck.
After the project was complete, but before final acceptance and during the warranty period, the county told Conway that the deck system was defective. Officials said that the FRP decking panels had come loose, damaging them, the fiberglass topcoat, and the roadway—and that the problem was getting worse.
Later, the county also alleged that the fasteners—"which ZellComp specified, supplied, instructed upon installation, and oversaw and approved the installation of"—had failed.
The county demanded that Conway repair both the deck panels and the fasteners.
The county almost fired Conway from the project in 2011, after the company was fined for spilling waste into the river, stalling the project for a few months.
The purchase order for the deck system was $1,240,641.66. Conway says it has paid ZellComp $942,702.15 and is "entitled to offset for the defective materials supplied during construction in the amount of $111,337.70."
If the deck system needs to be replaced, the estimated cost is $1.5 million. Based on these figures, "ZellComp owes Conway the sum of $1,313,398.19," the complaint states.
County Intervenes
In September, Multnomah County filed an intervention to the lawsuit, becoming an intervenor plaintiff, alleging that the decking defects damaged the decking panels, the QuikBond topcoat applied to the decking, and other elements of the bridge.
The county said it would likely incur damages totaling over $2 million, including lost personnel time, consultant costs and fees, attorney's fees and the still-unknown price tag to fix the bridge.
The county claimed breach of contract, negligence, breach of warranty and contractual indemnity against Conway. The county alleged that Conway's work resulted in the bridge defects, that Conway failed to supervise and ensure the proper work of the subcontractors, and other wrongdoing.
Filing negligence and breach-of-contract claims against ZellComp, the county alleged that the company "presented a foreseeable risk of harm in the form of defects and property damage" and furnished defective bridge decking.
Early Issues
The bridge project came to a halt in 2011 when the county threatened to fire Conway over multiple operational, safety and environmental problems.
In 2011, the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality issued a $3,600 penalty to Conway for water quality violations during work on the bridge in July 2011. The penalty, which Conway appealed, alleged that the company left waste where it could get into the Willamette River.
Additionally, the DEQ cited Conway for "spilling a small amount of epoxy" into the river in October 2011. No penalty was assessed because it was a small spill and because Conway "quickly made sure that no more epoxy would get into the river" and installed a new containment system.

by Plotkin, Henry
Publisher:Harvard University Press
We aren't very strong, nor very fast, we have insufficient body hair to keep us warm and dry, and we will never eat bananas with our feet. But like our chimpanzee cousins, we, the naked apes, have evolved to flourish in our surroundings--a cultural environment largely of our own creation. For the human race, the critical evolution of the past million years has been the evolution of our minds.
Yet psychology, the very science that purports to understand us, has long been deeply ambivalent about Darwin's unsettling discoveries. In an accessible, level-headed overview, Henry Plotkin describes the new rapprochement called 'evolutionary psychology.' He examines how such a powerful theory as Darwinism could have been disregarded by much academic psychology and shows why the relationship between the two must be readdressed. The theory and data of evolutionary biology and animal behavior can illuminate many of our most basic mental processes and activities: language learning, perception, social understanding, and most controversially, culture and the sharing of knowledge and beliefs.
Ranging from the nature-nurture question, which has bedeviled philosophers and scientists for thousands of years, to recent debates about the mind's structure, Evolution in Mind vividly demonstrates how an evolutionary perspective helps us understand what we are, and how we got that way.

Save Money and do the Demolition Yourself
Grab a hammer and a crow bar and rip out that old kitchen. Your budget will thank you.
You can knock hundreds, even thousands of dollars off your kitchen remodeling cost if you rip out the old kitchen yourself. Here are tips for removing the appliances, cabinets and fixtures yourself.
Prep the Space
1. Turn off the electricity in the kitchen at the breaker box. Put a piece of tape over the breakers so no one turns them on by mistake while you're working. You don't want to get electrocuted.
2. Turn off the water. You can do this below the kitchen sink.
3. Turn off the gas. If you have gas appliances, turn them off at the valve that's usually behind the appliance. To get to the valve, pull the appliance out carefully so you won't yank the hose out of the valve.
4. Rent a dolly for moving the heaviest appliances. You can rent one at most home improvement center or equipment rental centers.
5. Throw a drop cloth over the floor. This will prevent scratches and other damage. If you are ripping out the floor, too, don't worry about it.
6. Rent a dumpster. You'll need a six-cubic yard one for the debris from the average-sized kitchen. You can rent one at home improvement stores.
Now you're ready to begin removing the old kitchen, piece by piece.
Remove the Old Kitchen
1. Garbage disposal: Use channel lock pliers to loosen the compression nut on the garbage disposal. Once you do this and remove the retaining ring, the disposal unit will fall off. Have someone there ready to catch it.
2. Sink: Use a utility knife to cut the silicone bead on the edges of the sink holding it to the counter. Use a pry bar and a hammer to lift it out. Place pieces of 2 x 4 wood under the edges of the sink as you loosen it. Then lift it out.
3. Cabinets: Empty everything out. Remove the doors and drawers. If you are going to reuse them in another part of the house or donate them to charity or thrift store, label each door and drawer so they can be reassembled. Tape the screws to the hinges. Use a pry bar to take the cabinets off the wall
4. Countertops and backsplashes: Use a pry bar to remove the countertops and tiles from a backsplash. You can also use a saw to cut the countertop off in chunks.
5. Dishwasher. Follow these steps:
- Remove the front cover from the bottom of the dishwasher to expose the wiring.
- Use a voltage meter to test the wires at the dishwasher to ensure the power is still off.
- Remove the electrical box from the unit. Unscrew the wire nuts and pull apart the wires. Start with the green wires, white and then black.
- Disconnect the drain line from the dishwasher and the water supply line from the dedicated dishwasher stop.
- Open the door to the dishwasher, then remove the screws secured to the underside of the countertop. Raise the legs using a wrench. Slowly pull out the dishwasher ensuring the wires are out of the way. Also, the drain line should come out with the dishwasher from under the sink.
