Damit dem Windows-Team nichts mehr entgeht – Allesfresser check_logfiles

Folgende Anfrage wurde von einem Kunden an mich gerichtet:
Jetzt kam von den Admin die Anfrage ob es nicht möglich ist alle Meldungen (winwarncrit) erstmal als Warning an Nagios zu melden, um dann bestimmte Meldungen nach und nach als Critical einzustufen, oder komplett zu verwerfen (exclude).
Geht das?
Citrus: More XPath validation power
Posted on February 26th, 2010 by Christoph
In my last post (citrus-xpath-validation-power) I solved a validation problem regarding generic XML data structures with some XPath expression power. Now in latest 1.1-SNAPSHOT version of Citrus things become even more straightforward.
Citrus: XPath validation power
Posted on February 18th, 2010 by Christoph
I recently struggled with the validation of a very generic XML data structure in some message payload. It turned out to be a good example where XPath validation can overcome the normal XML tree comparison. I’d like to share my thoughts about this issue, because others might run into similar problems too and the solution with XPath really impressed me with its powerful validation possibilities.

Localized citrus.properties
Posted on February 3rd, 2010 by Christoph
In larger projects usually a team of testers is working on Citrus integration tests. This means that we need to localize the citrus.properties for testing on different machines, as each tester executes test cases with individual environment settings. In this post I’d like to share an easy way to localize the Citrus settings with Maven.

Customizing meta information
Posted on January 18th, 2010 by Christoph
Test cases in Citrus are usually provided with some meta information like the author’s name or the date of creation. This post shows how to extend on this to include your very specific meta data on your own.
