Hi all, Nothing big, just some random friday Jython cheers! I gave a small presentation about The Grinder (perfomance testing suite that uses Jython) to our team last week. Almost all of our products code is straight Java (+Spring and stuff), but everyone was able to get started with Jython pretty quickly (the were problems of course, but no showstoppers). I'm sure people experience this all the time, but having been a personal Jython user for a while, it was exciting to see an app that gave it a real *in* to the organization. (Especially since it's vastly easier to use than JMeter thanks to Jython). Also, because the proxy recorder for the Grinder does have some shortcomings, and we do use Selenium for other things, I found out today that the Python code you can export from Selenium IDE does run Ok (at least on my first tests) in Jython 2.2.1, as it only depends on urllib, httplib, unittest, and re... So now we can export our Selenium tests as Python (and not the java export options :p ) and include them as tests in The Grinder as well. Very cool! Of course, this is still very new internally, but it looks like our work should progress pretty smoothly. Hoping maybe during PyCon to work on upping The Grinder to Jython 2.5 since of the classes that The Grinder instruments have changed ( I posted about this a few weeks ago). Cheers, Steve |
