DbFit mailing list

gojko — Sat, 13 Dec 2008 22:09:55 +0000

Several new people sent in patches for DbFit and I will now have a lot more time to invest in development, so I’ve started a mailing list to coordinate ideas and work for DbFit 2.0. To join the group, see dbfit page on google groups.

DbFit 1.1 released: DB2 and Derby support and native queries

gojko — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 15:13:59 +0000

DbFit 1.1 is now available for download from SourceForge. Here are the most important changes:

Major updates

DB2 supported in .net and java
Initial, incomplete Derby (no stored procs) and Sql Server support for Java (not all datatypes)

Minor updates

image and xml types now supported in sql server (as binary and string) in .NET
IDbEnvironment now exposes CurrentConnection and CurrentTransaction as public properties in .NET

I have merged DbFit with fitnessedotnet release 1.7.1 and fitnesse (java) release 20080812. I will publish a new official release (1.1) in a few days.

My acceptance tests are running OK. If you are using DbFit at the moment, please take 10 minutes to test the latest beta version and let me know if you encounter any problems, so that I can fix any potential issues before the release. Download the betas from:

dbfit-20080813.jar (java)

As always, it was a real pleasure to talk at Skills Matter yesterday. Thanks to everyone who attended the talk. There was quite an interest in this talk, and we might do a re-run for the people who could not make it this time. If you’d like to attend a re-run of the talk soon, drop an e-mail to the organisers and I’ll be happy to do it if there is enough interest.

Here are the slides from the talk. The video should be online at skillsmatter.com soon as well (subscribe to the RSS feed to get notified about that).

These are the links that I mentioned in the talk:
