TestInsight provides a local JSON web-server from the IDE for the test-runner to communicate from

Posted by jpluimers on 2019/08/15

Stefan Glienke shared the TestInsight default JSON web-server location with me through chat; I like it!

Some endpoints:

The mechanism for accessing this JSON server are implemented in the TestInsight.Client.pas

You can find the endpoint base URL in TestInsightSettings.ini which by default looks like this:

[Config]
BaseUrl=http://WIN10-DELPHI:8102

When Powershell function won’t work: you define them with commas and parentheses, but call them with spaces and no parentheses

Posted by jpluimers on 2019/08/15

The function or command was called as if it were a method. 
Parameters should be separated by spaces. For information about 
parameters, see the about_Parameters Help topic.

Every now and then I bump into the above error. The reason is this:

  1. Functions are defined with commas between parameters and parentheses around them
  2. One-parameter functions can be called with one parameter surrounded by parentheses
  3. Multi-parameter functions need to be called with spaces between parameters and no parentheses surrounding them

Confused? #MeToo

The problem: [WayBackabout_Parameters_Default_Values | Microsoft Docs

Based on [WayBack] Powershell function won’t work.

If I ever need to use SHA-3 in Delphi: [WayBack] Does anyone know of any implementations of SHA-3, that can support TStream? – Nicholas Ring – Google+

The comments have a nice list of libraries supporting SHA-3, and how to do streaming hashing.
