JUnit Testing

Posted on Thursday, August 10, 2006 at 7:46 PM by Malcolm

Command line tool to run test

The JUnit package has q command line based tool to run tests.

> java junit.textui.TestRunner [-wait] TestCaseClass

TestRunner expects the name of a TestCase class as argument. If this class defines a static suite method it will be invoked and the returned test is run. Otherwise all the methods starting with "test" having no arguments are run.

When the wait command line argument is given TestRunner waits until the users types RETURN.

TestRunner prints a trace as the tests are executed followed by a summary at the end.

Supercomputing for Interactive Digital Media Applications

Posted on Tuesday, August 08, 2006 at 6:01 PM by Malcolm

Modelling and simulation, Computational optimization, Parallel and distributed Computing

Abstract:

Interactive digital media environments involving large number of online users require the support of large computational resources to carryout many tasks such as rendering and updating of the environments and its associate entities. This kind of computational resources are traditionally available only on dedicated supercomputers. Recent developments in the field of commodity supercomputing such as multicore programming, GPGPU and cloud-computing need to be studied and adapted to power these interactive digital media applications.
