Our Irish guests

Friday, June 24th, 2011

racecallerYesterday at our office we’ve had a meeting with the representatives of Racecaller - an independent website for the horse racing community based in Dublin, Ireland. It was agreed that Softheme will do redesign and add powerful social module, that will be integrated with all popular social networks.

We’ve been successfully working with the client for as long as 5 years. Softheme developed the portal, did its performance tuning, redesign, provided QA services and created multiple white labels.

Racecaller.com is part of Horses Mouth Limited, a registered Irish Company based in Dublin. It is an independent website for the horse racing community - it is free to use, all we ask is for people to register to access certain areas of the site (we operate a strict privacy policy ensuring your details are never shared with any third parties).

Yahoo Mail Gets a Refresh Beta, Adds Twitter

Thursday, October 28th, 2010

yahooSpeed and spam topped the list of what Yahoo was trying to improve in its next version, a beta of which will start rolling out to users Tuesday night. The redesigned version takes inspiration from Yahoo’s iPad and Android clients for the market-leading, Web-based mail service, and not only adds the speed and spam reduction, but also brings Twitter into its fold and, like Microsoft’s updated Hotmail service, can now display photos and videos within users’ inboxes.

David McDowell, Yahoo’s senior director of product management for Yahoo Mail, about the new mail version: “People spend more than 30 billion minutes a month on Yahoo Mail, so if we make a change, it’s significant,” said McDowell. “If you were to stack up users lists of complaints about e-mail, speed and spam would be at the top of the list, and we’ve tackled both head on with this release. Yahoo Mail’s been re-architected from the ground up with speed and performance in mind, and it’s actually two times faster than our existing version—much faster to load and much faster to navigate.”

Friday, October 1st, 2010

Rumoured for months, Google TV is now official and is expected to launch into our living rooms on October 17th. Previous efforts to bring the web into the lounge have been a disappointment, offering little more than poorly implemented widgets that tell you what the weather’s like and let you view YouTube clips.The search giant’s taking web TV seriously, with heavyweight partners and Google’s usual commitment to quality control. Could it alter your viewing forever?

The Future of Testing: Testers as Designers

Thursday, September 9th, 2010

the-future-of-testing-testers-as-designersModern testers play largely a role of late cycle heroics that often goes unappreciated come review and bonus time. When we find the big bug it is because we were supposed to … that’s the expectation. When we miss the big bug, people ask questions. It’s often a case of ignored-if-you-do and damned-if-you-don’t.

This is going to change and it is going to change soon because it must.

As testing and test techniques move earlier in the process testers will do work more similar to software design than software verification. We will place more emphasis on designing quality strategy for all software artifacts and not just the binary. We will spend more time recognizing the need for testing rather than actually executing test cases. We will oversee and measure automation rather than building and debugging it. We will spend more time reviewing the status of pre-existing tests than building new ones. We will become designers and our work will be performed at a higher level of abstraction and earlier in the lifecycle.
