Incrementally Build Software - Highest Priority Features First!Incrementally Build Software - Highest Priority Features First!


Agile Method: Scrum

• Simple process for product/project management

• Product Backlog - List of known features/changes for product

• Sprint - 1-month iterations (develop highest priority items)

• Meetings Sprint Planning Meeting – Done at beginning of each sprint

(after planning, features moved from product backlog to sprint backlog)

Daily scrum meeting (short: 15 minutes) Sprint review meeting


Extreme Programming (XP)

• Shorter and Frequent Cycles (smaller chunks!) Release - Quarterly Cycles (set a theme) Iteration - Weekly Cycles (e.g. aim for last day of week) 10-minute builds Continuous integration (multiple times per day; manual or automatic)

Incremental Design and Planning (defer investment till needed)

Development in small increments using Test-First development

• Communications - Sit Together, Informative Workspace, on-site customer

• Flow - sustainable pace versus rigid phases; velocity, continuous integration

Project Initiation


Problem Statement

Our employees currently submit their weekly hours worked using a paper-based timesheet system that is manually intensive and error-prone.

We require an automated solution for submitting employee hours worked, in the form of an electronic timesheet, approving them, and paying for the time worked.

In addition, we would like to have automatic notifications of timesheet status changes and a weekly reminder to submit and approve employee timesheets.

Shifting Some Upfront Design to Refactoring


Shifting Some Upfront Design To Refactoring (Continuous Design)• Refactoring is not a new concept; the term is relatively new

• refactoring.com “Refactoring is a disciplined technique for restructuring an existing body of code, altering its internal structure without changing its external behavior.”- Martin Fowler

Over 100 refactoring techniques; for example: Extract superclass Extract interface Move class Move method

Ant (ant.apache.org)

• Ant task types Compile tasks (that is,

javac) Deployment tasks File tasks such as copy,

delete, move, and others. Property tasks for

setting internal variables

Audit/coverage tasks Database tasks Documentation tasks Execution tasks Mail tasks Preprocess tasks Property tasks Remote tasks Miscellaneous tasks (e.g.

echo)

<ftp server="mirrors.kernel.org" action="get" remotedir="/gnu/chess" userid="anonymous" password="[email protected]" verbose="yes" binary="yes"> <fileset file="README.gnuchess"/></ftp>

<ftp server="mirrors.kernel.org" action="get" remotedir="/gnu/chess" userid="anonymous" password="[email protected]" verbose="yes" binary="yes"> <fileset file="README.gnuchess"/></ftp>

<mail tolist="[email protected]" subject="Hello!" from="[email protected]" mailhost="myhost.com" user="myuserid" password="mypassword"/>

<mail tolist="[email protected]" subject="Hello!" from="[email protected]" mailhost="myhost.com" user="myuserid" password="mypassword"/>


JUnit (junit.org)

• Originally written by Erich Gamma (Gang of Four, Design Patterns) Kent Beck (author of Extreme Programming and Test Driven Development)

• Simple framework – various assert methods assertEquals assertFalse assertNotNull assertNotSame assertNull assertSame assertTrue

public class SimpleTest extends junit.framework.TestCase{ int value1 = 2, value2 = 3, expectedResult = 5;

public static void main(String args[]) { junit.textui.TestRunner.run(suite()); }

public static Test suite() { return new TestSuite(SimpleTest.class); }

public void testAddSuccess() { assertTrue(value1 + value2 == expectedResult); }}

public class SimpleTest extends junit.framework.TestCase{ int value1 = 2, value2 = 3, expectedResult = 5;

public static void main(String args[]) { junit.textui.TestRunner.run(suite()); }

public static Test suite() { return new TestSuite(SimpleTest.class); }

public void testAddSuccess() { assertTrue(value1 + value2 == expectedResult); }}


JUnit GUI Based Testing

Console Runner

Eclipse Plug-in


Agile Method: Test Driven Development (TDD) w/ JUnit• A term coined by Kent Beck

• Also, a XP practice (test-first)

• “Red - Green - Refactor”

• Several benefits to this approach: Minimal code written to satisfy requirements (nothing more, nothing less!) If code passes the unit tests, it is done! Can help design classes better (from a client/interface perspective) Refactor with confidence

Write unit test code

More unit test code

More unit test code

Write some actual code

Where Hibernate Fits Into Our Architecture


An Overview of Object-Relational Mapping (ORM)

• ORM - Java object to database table/record mapping Java = objects database = relational

• Relationships unidirectional and bidirectional relations in a relational database are bidirectional by

definition

• Cardinality (OO term is multiciplicity) One-to-one one-to-many many-to-one and many-to-many

• Object Identity

• Cascade

• Others…


Hibernate Basics

• Dialect(DB2, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, SAP DB, Sybase, TimesTen…)

• SessionFactory, Session, and Transaction

• Work with Database Records (as Java Objects)

• Object States - persistent, detached, and transient

• Data Types – more than you'll likely need!

• Hibernate Query Language (HQL) – powerful SQL-like language


From Domain Model To A (Denormalized) Physical Data Model


Working With Hibernate - Simple Example Using Department1.hibernate.cfg.xml – Hibernate configuration file

(DB configuration)<mapping resource="Department.hbm.xml" />

2.Department.hbm.xml – Mapping file for our Department table<class name="com.visualpatterns.timex.model.Department" table="Department"> <id name="departmentCode" column="departmentCode"> <property name="name" column="name"/>

3.Department.java – Bean file with two variables: String departmentCode; String name;

4.HibernateTest.java – Simple test program (on next slide)


HibernateTest.java

SessionFactory sessionFactory = new Configuration().configure() .buildSessionFactory();Session session = sessionFactory.getCurrentSession();

Transaction tx = session.beginTransaction();Department department = (Department)

session.get(Department.class, "IT");

System.out.println("Name for IT = " + department.getName());

...

List departmentList = session.createQuery("from Department").list();for (int i = 0; i < departmentList.size(); i++){ department = (Department) departmentList.get(i); System.out.println("Row " + (i + 1) + "> " + department.getName() + " (" + department.getDepartmentCode() + ")");}

...sessionFactory.close();


Other Hibernate Features

• Saving (save, merge, saveOrUpdate)session.saveOrUpdate(timesheet)

• Deleting records session.delete(Object), or session.createQuery("DELETE from Timesheet")

• Queries using Criteria interface (more OO and typesafe) List timesheetList =

session.createCriteria(Timesheet.class) .add(Restrictions.eq("employeeId", employeeId)) .list();

Related classes: Restrictions, Order, Junction, Distinct, and others

• Locking Objects (Concurrency Control)

• Lots More Hibernate (associtions, annotations, filters, interceptors, scrollable iterations, native SQL, transaction management, etc.)



The Spring Framework


Spring Modules


Spring Java Packaging (org.springframework.)


Quick Poll

Are you familiar with Inversion of Control

(IoC)?

Are you familiar with Inversion of Control

(IoC)?


• Dependency Injection Styles Two Supported By Spring:

Setter/getter based Constructor based

Fowler suggests a 3rd, interface injection, http://www.martinfowler.com/articles/injection.html

• Spring IoC Concepts: Beans, BeanFactory, ApplicationContext…

IoC Container And Dependency Injection Pattern

public class A{ B myB = new B(); C myC = new C();}

public class A{ B myB; C myC;

public setB(B myB) public setC(C myC)

Class A

Class CClass B

IOCContainer

Normal Way Using IoC


Benefits of Using Spring

• Light weight Inversion of Control (IoC) container

• Excellent support for POJOs (e.g. declarative transaction management)

• Modular – not an all-or-nothing approach

• Testing – dependency injection and POJOs makes for easier testing

• Many others No Singletons Builds on top of existing technologies (e.g. JEE, Hibernate)

Robust MVC web framework Consistent database exception hierarchy (e.g. wrap SQLException)


Where Spring Framework Fits Into Our Architecture

OptionalHibernate integration


Quick Poll

Which web framework do you use?

Which web framework do you use?


Spring Web MVC

• Easier testing – mock classes, dependency injection

• Bind directly to business objects

• Clear separation of roles – validators, adaptable controllers, command (form) object, etc.

• Simple but powerful tag libraries

• Support for various view technologies and web frameworks (e.g. Struts, webwork, tapestry, JSF)


Spring MVC Java Concepts

1.Controller

2.ModelAndView

3.Command (Form Backing) Object

4.Validator

5.Spring Tag Library (spring:bind)


<bean id="urlMapAuthenticate” class= "org.springframework.web.servlet.handler.SimpleUrlHandlerMapping"> <prop key="/enterhours.htm">enterHoursController</prop>...

Sample End-To-End Flow Using Spring and Hibernate


Timesheet List: A No-Form Controller Example

public class TimesheetListController implements Controller {... public ModelAndView handleRequest( HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)

mockHttpServletRequest = new MockHttpServletRequest("GET", "/timesheetlist.htm");ModelAndView modelAndView = timesheetListController.handleRequest( mockHttpServletRequest, null);

assertNotNull(modelAndView);assertNotNull(modelAndView.getModel());

mockHttpServletRequest = new MockHttpServletRequest("GET", "/timesheetlist.htm");ModelAndView modelAndView = timesheetListController.handleRequest( mockHttpServletRequest, null);

assertNotNull(modelAndView);assertNotNull(modelAndView.getModel());


Enter Hours: A Form Screen

public class EnterHoursController extends SimpleFormControllerpublic class EnterHoursController extends SimpleFormController

1. EnterHoursController.java2. EnterHoursValidator.java3. enterhours.jsp


View/JSP Code – Spring and JSTL Tag Libraries

<spring:bind path="command.employeeId"> <input name='<c:out value="${status.expression}"/>' value='<c:out value="${status.value}"/>' type="text" size="6" maxlength="6"></spring:bind>

<spring:bind path="command.employeeId"> <input name='<c:out value="${status.expression}"/>' value='<c:out value="${status.value}"/>' type="text" size="6" maxlength="6"></spring:bind>

Special (Spring) variable named status• status.value• status.expression• status.error• status.errorMessage• status.errorMessages• status.displayValue

public class HttpRequestInterceptor extends HandlerInterceptorAdapter{ public boolean preHandle(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, Object handler) { if (!signedIn) { response.sendRedirect(this.signInPage); return false; }

Sign In (Authentication) - Spring HandlerInterceptor


Other Spring Web Stuff

• View with no controllers (e.g. only JSP files)<bean id="urlFilenameController"

class="org.springframework.web.servlet.mvc.UrlFilenameViewController"/><prop key="/help.htm">urlFilenameController</prop>

• Spring 2.0 – new tag libraries form:form - org.springframework.web.servlet.tags.form.FormTag form:input- org.springframework.web.servlet.tags.form.InputTag form:password -

org.springframework.web.servlet.tags.form.PasswordInputTag form:hidden -

org.springframework.web.servlet.tags.form.RadioButtonTag Others…

• Other Web Flow – gaining a lot of momentum! Wizard-like features.

Portlet API – based on JSR-168 Portlet Specification (jcp.org).


Spring ORM Module: Support for Hibernate

• Management of sessionfactory and session (no close calls)

• Declarative transaction management in light-weight containers

• Easier testing (pluggable Sessionfactory via XML file)

• Less lines of code – focus on business logic!

The Eclipse Phenomenon!


Quick Poll

Which IDE do you use?Which IDE do you use?


The Eclipse Foundation, Platform and Projects

• Foundation Originally developed by Object Technology International (OTI), purchased by IBM ($40 million) and donated it to open source!

Recruited various corporations; from eclipse.org: Industry leaders Borland, IBM, MERANT, QNX Software Systems, Rational Software, Red Hat, SuSE, TogetherSoft and Webgain formed the initial eclipse.org Board of Stewards in November 2001. By the end of 2003, this initial consortium had grown to over 80 members.

My view: Eclipse foundation is similar to Apache foundation for GUI tools

• Platform objectives robust platform for highly integrated dev tools enable view and/or editing of any content type attract a large community of developers to develop plug-ins

• ProjectsApplication Development, editors, modeling, performance, testing, reporting, and many more


Many Platforms Supported (Windows, Unix, Linux, Mac OS X…)


Personal Opinion:

The Java versus

Microsoft Thing

Logging Basics and Frameworks

• Types1.Audit log2.Tracing3.Error reporting

• Pros• No human intervention (automated)

• Great for head-less servers

• Cons• Performance hit

• Can clutter code

Logging Frameworks

• Alternative to println statements

• Key benefit - Output control (destination, format, log level)

• Most popular - Apache Log4J and JDK Logging

• Jakarta Commons Logging -- bridge to frameworks


Headaches of Finding and Fixing Bugs!


Debugging Java Code With Eclipse

• Debug perspectives

and views

• Breakpoints

• Step through code

• Variable inspection

• Hotswap

• Remote debugging

“consolidated debugging”


Debugging Web User Interfaces Using Mozilla Firefox

JavaScript debugger

Web Developer

Tamper Data


Java Monitoring and Profiling

• Monitoring JSE 5.0 includes JConsole

Memory issues Class loading and garbage collection

Management of MBeans and JDK logging level, etc …

• Profiling Memory usage and leaks

CPU utilization Trace objects and methods

Determine performance bottlenecks

Custom Tag Libraries

public class PayPeriodCheckTag extends TagSupport{ public int doStartTag() throws JspException { boolean includeText = ; // do something if (includeText) return TagSupport.EVAL_BODY_INCLUDE; return TagSupport.SKIP_BODY; }

<timex:periodcheck checkDate="${command.periodEndingDate}"> <input name="save" type="submit" value="Save"></timex:periodcheck>

<timex:periodcheck checkDate="${command.periodEndingDate}"> <input name="save" type="submit" value="Save"></timex:periodcheck>


Security, Reliability and Scalability Considerations


Application Security Considerations

• Authentication (user and application levels)

• Authorization (roles, groups, etc.)

• Encryption (wire protocol, configuration files)

Wire protocol (HTTP/S)

User-level authenticati

Other Considerations

• Exception Handling1. Checked exceptions (e.g. IOException) – required catch or throw

2. Unchecked exceptions (e.g. NullPointerException) - no catch/throw needed

3. Errors (e.g. OutOfMemoryError)

• Clustering (serialize, no static variables, simplicity…)

• Multi-threading (JDK 1.5 concurrent API)

• Rich Internet Applications (RIA) AJaX -

Planning Coding • User stories are written. • Release planning creates the

schedule. • Make frequent small releases. • The Project Velocity is measured. • The project is divided into iterations. • Iteration planning starts each

iteration. • Move people around. • A stand-up meeting starts each day. • Fix XP when it breaks.

• The customer is always available. • Code must be written to agreed

standards. • Code the unit test first. • All production code is pair programmed. • Only one pair integrates code at a time. • Integrate often. • Use collective code ownership. • Leave optimization till last. • No overtime.

Designing Testing • Simplicity. • Choose a system meta phor. • Use CRC cards for design sessions. • Create spike solutions to reduce risk. • No functionality is added early. • Refactor whenever and wherever

possible.

• All code must have unit tests. • All code must pass all unit tests before it

can be released. • When a bug is found tests are created. • Acceptance tests are run often and the

score is published.
