One of the most commonly overlooked and under-refined elements of a website is its pagination controls. In many cases, these are treated as an afterthought. I rarely come across a website that has decent pagination, and it always makes me wonder why so few manage to get it right. After all, I'd say that pagination is pretty easy to get right. Alas, that doesn't seem the case, so after encouragement from Chris Messina on Flickr I decided to write my Pagination 101, hopefully it'll give you some clues as to what makes good pagination.

Property-Based Testing Tools

If you're coming to the Property-Based TDD As If You Meant It Workshop, you will need to bring a laptop with your favourite programming environment, a property-based testing library and, depending on the language, a test framework to run the property-based-tests.

Any other languages or suggestions? Comment below.

.NET (C#, F#, VB)

Python:

Rolling restart supervisord watched processes. Since every restart it waits for "$status" == "RUNNING", it's safer that simply running /etc/init.d/supervisor restart

# Usage: ./supervisor-rolling-restart [supervised-process-name]
