quarry 0.5.2
Quarry 0.5.2
Experimental test/spec system exploring storyboards and AOP-based design contracts more>>
Quarry 0.5.2 is an extremely powerful utility for developers. It is actually a BDD/TDD framework that can frees you of strict nomenclatures, opening up vast reserves in test ore and behavior mining. Quarry uses a literate programming model that eliminates the barriers on how to describe your specifications and unit tests, leading to a proverbial gold mine in systems documentation.
Major Features:
Quarry's BDD/TDD system is unique in many ways.
- Firstly:
- It does not enforce a BDD or TDD perspective, but leaves that choice up to the programmer and the case at hand, by supporting a diversified set of "this-is-so" methods.
- Quarry's defacto terminology is expected because it is suitable to both testers and specifiers. And Quarry full supports assert and should nomenclatures as well for those atone to those particular perspectives.
- Secondly:
- Quarry's specifications are an application of literate programming. As such, they are completely free-form. In other words, unlike other BDD/TDD systems, Quarry has no special organization domain language. Instead specifications are simply text/markup files (typically RDoc format).
- Quarry also provides a flexible test-double facility consisting of stubs, light-weight mocks and spies. These are very flexible tools. For instance, a Quarry stub can act as a revaluble module or automatically via object's singleton class.
- Quarry actually discourages the use of mocks as they are traditionally understood, because they create overly tight coupling between specification and implementation. But Quarry provides light-weight mocks that are in effect pre-asserted stubs.
- Lastly
- A method-probe/test-spy is also under development, which can be used to dip-down into a method and provide a readout of the methods signatures.
- Also in the works is an embedded test/spec extraction tool. This allows tests/specs to be embedded in block comments, which can be a very convenient means to provide unit test/specs.
Enhancements:
- Markup tracks before and after macros.
- Script output using --script option.
Requirements:
- Mac OS X

Cutplace 0.5.2
A free tool to validate that data conform to an interface control document (ICD) more>>
Examples are exchanging data between different partner companies, providing data for data warehousing or other data processing involving architecturally very different systems like mainframes.
Major Features:
- With Cutplace one will be able to easily describe these data in a simple and human readable spreadsheets using popular applications like Excel or Calc.
- Unlike a lot of documentation these days, this description does not only describe wishful thinking. It acts as "executable specification" that cutplace can use to validate that data actually conform to it.
Enhancements: Fixed missing setup script.

Justniffer 0.5.2
Free and open source TCP packet sniffer more>> Free and open source TCP packet sniffer
Justniffer captures TCP packets, reassembles and reorders them, performs IP packet defragmentation and displays the tcp flow in the standard output.
Justniffer is useful for logging network traffic in a standard (web server like) or in a customized way.
Justniffer can log timings, for example it can log the response time). It is very useful for tracking network services performances (e.g. application server, web server, etc.).
The main differences with other sniffers are:
- Justniffer captures tcp/ip traffic and handle all tcp/ip stuff (reordering, retrasmissions, defragmentation). The tcp flow adjustment is performed using linux kernel code included in a slightly modified version of the nids library.
- Justniffer reports timing informations. So it can be usefull for tracking network system performances
Enhancements
- fixed compilation issues with gcc 3.3.3
- added connection.timestamp
- fixed idle.time.0 formatting
- fixed documentation
- more adherence to RFC 2616: looking for headers in case insesitive mode

Freenet 0.5.2
Freenet is a large-scale peer-to-peer network which pools the power of member computers around the world to create a massive virtual information store open to anyone to freely publish or view more>>
Freenet 0.5.2 won't make you disappointed cause it pools the power of member computers around the world to create a massive virtual information store open to anyone to freely publish or view information of all kinds.
Major Features:
- Highly survivable: All internal processes are completely anonymized and decentralized across the global network, making it virtually impossible for an attacker to destroy information or take control of the system.
- Private: Freenet makes it extremely difficult for anyone to spy on the information that you are viewing, publishing, or storing.
- Secure: Information stored in Freenet is protected by strong cryptography against malicious tampering or counterfeiting.
- Efficient: Freenet dynamically replicates and relocates information in response to demand to provide efficient service and minimal bandwidth usage regardless of load. Significantly, Freenet generally requires log(n) time to retrieve a piece of information in a network of size
- Freenet is free software which lets you anonymously share files, browse and publish "freesites" (web sites accessible only through Freenet) and chat on forums, without fear of censorship.
- Freenet is decentralised to make it less vulnerable to attack, and if used in "darknet" mode, where users only connect to their friends, is very difficult to detect.
- Communications by Freenet nodes are encrypted and are routed through other nodes to make it extremely difficult to determine who is requesting the information and what its content is.
- Users contribute to the network by giving bandwidth and a portion of their hard drive (called the "data store") for storing files. Files are automatically kept or deleted depending on how popular they are, with the least popular being discarded to make way for newer or more popular content. Files are encrypted, so generally the user cannot easily discover what is in his datastore, and hopefully can't be held accountable for it. Chat forums, websites, and search functionality, are all built on top of this distributed data store.
- An important recent development, which very few other networks have, is the "darknet": By only connecting to people they trust, users can greatly reduce their vulnerability, and yet still connect to a global network through their friends' friends' friends and so on. This enables people to use Freenet even in places where Freenet may be illegal, makes it very difficult for governments to block it, and does not rely on tunneling to the "free world". .
Enhancements:
- Unspecified improvements
- Bug fixes.
