In a previous blog post, Notifications from MATLAB, I showed how Amazon's Notification system (AWS SNS) can be used from MATLAB service can be used to easily send information between endpoints in a distributed system, be they applications or people.... read more >>

OK, so remember how we just went through the exercise (not just once, but twice) of how you can write a function to help parallelize your test runs? Well all of that still applies if you have not yet upgraded to MATLAB R2015a. However, if you do have R2015a you now get this out of the box because the TestRunner now has a runInParallel method!... read more >>

Last time we showed that using a simple parfor loop we could reduce the runtime of a representative test suite from 6 to 7 minutes (when run serially) down to a minute and a half. However, we still faced some problems:... read more >>

When I am neck deep in hardcore TDD Red-Green-Refactor cycles I am constantly looking for ways to ensure that my feedback loop is as quick as possible. If the testing feedback takes too long I am liable to start daydreaming and I lose my context in the design process (because... read more >>
