I have been sifting through Chicago Android opportunities and wanted to share this little strange gem. I am keeping the firm name and person’s name undisclosed because it would somewhat be embarrassing to them but to say that this proves that the people who cannot code go into business management somewhat is an understatement. Basically, [...]
Its interesting to go on interviews to see if people really get testing or not and its role in the agile process. For example, the set of ant-rules files that is distributed with the android sdk has had annoying little mistakes in key areas such as the coverage target inn test_rules, etc for awhile. My [...]
My settings for the apiviz javadoc ant task in a gist.

So Wabash is this set of ant scripts that I have been working on to support BDD and test instrumentation and some beginning MonkeyRunner stuff. The last set of steps is to switch to using the DroidDoclet the same one used by the android project. This way I can combine different documents from child projects [...]
Everyone has been looking for a sales channels similar to Apple AppStore. I found an innovative one that involves the context of the mobile device user in the process. It has some apis to access, but its not bad in that the coding time is somewhat small. Now, to find a firm in Chicago that [...]
