Let's learn Astronomy!

on September 29, 2012. in Free time, Blablabla. A 2 minute read.

I've graduated from Subotica Tech back in 2009., and earned a BsC in electrical engineering, or some such. Even though I had the opportunity to continue my academic studies, I decided that I had enough of schools for a while, and that I should start working. Turns out, that was a pretty smart move from my side, as I ended up working for two years with an awesome team, and later on started my own company, which is now over a year old! Yey!

Unit testing Zend Framework 2 modules

on September 15, 2012. in Development, Programming, Software. A 5 minute read.

Porting this blog to Zend Framework 2, I decided to write some unit tests as well, while I’m at it. Not that the current code base doesn’t have unit tests, just it doesn’t have much of it… Anyway, I’d like to show how to get unit tests for modules up and running, as well how to throw in Mockery in the mix, as it can help us greatly with mocking out objects. Some of the parts shown here probably could be written in a more cleaner/nicer way, especially the autoloading bit, but so far it works for me.

Zend Framework hit a big milestone as version 2 was released last week. Sadly, I didn’t have time to contribute to it, or even to poke around it much. I decided to slowly, as time permits, port this blog to ZF2; it should be a good enough learning playground.

One hundred kilometers

One hundred and two kilometers, and three hundred-ish meters, to be precise. I just got home from my latest “run", and that is the total number of kilometers I made (and tracked) on my longboard since I got it back in July. Maybe it doesn’t sound like much, but if someone would have told me 2-3 months ago, that I would do this much physical activity and actually like it and enjoy it, I would probably tell it’s just crazy talk. Me, getting up my arse from the chair and doing something outside? No way, dude.
