Hi Alan: After many good years together (at least 15), it looks like it's time to part company. Our lease at Bloor is up at the end of November, and we'll be moving. When we move, we won't be able to offer TPM the use of our facilities. We're happy to continue to host you through to your October meeting, but of course would understand if you choose to relocate prior to that time. Sorry about this - but at least there's lots of warning! Scott.

It's also possible we could find some other office space to host us. We could follow up on that as well. If we want to continue broadcasting the meetings, then the bar setting will make this a lot more difficult.

My vote would be to schedule one of our next meeting dates to be at OANDA. If the general consensus is that it's a suitable venue, then we're all taken care of. Whether we just move to OANDA or have most of our meetings at the current location for the time being is something we can put to a vote, but I say let's try this out and see how it works. I believe there are lots of options for going out socially after the meeting in this area of town.

It will be rescheduled to a later date but we're still looking forward to two talks at our new venue. Regarding the venue: A reminder that this month we are breaking from our normal meeting place and will be convening at the offices of OANDA. It is at 370 King Street West (The Hyatt Regency). On entering, take the west elevators (by the security desk) up to the second floor. Please note the elevators won't allow you up to the second floor until 6:30 and will remain unlocked only until 7:30. If you arrive late (and after 7:30), feel free to text me, Dave Doyle, at 416-993-4411 and we can bring you up. We'll decide on a venue for drinks and food after the talks at the meeting although the Town Crier is right behind the venue and has 50 beers on tap. Fifty. I've just noticed I use the word "venue" too much. Oh well. See you tomorrow! D -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I'm using Moose at $work on one project, and we're using Test::Class on another project. This ties the two together. I can see the talk starting with Test::More, moving to Moose, moving up to Test::Class, and finishing with Test::Class::Moose. And running stuff in parallel is fantastic -- we currently run, for example, login tests. Doing that serially takes forever, but I bet we could cut the time down bigtime by running it in parallel.

Of course, to test class code, a class based test suite is a good fit so both forms of the names are somewhat relevant. On 28 March 2014 14:10, Alex Beamish wrote: > This is really cool.
