I usually run my unit tests in Eclipse on my development system, or from the command-line on the target environment in bulk.

Sometimes though it's useful to run a single unit test from the command line. There are two equivalent ways of doing that:

rake test=test\integration\firmware_upgrade_test.rb

ruby test\integration\firmware_upgrade_test.rb

Here's an example of the use of hagelslag.

The dessert "gele vla" is a one of my favorites and it is served with chocolate sprinkles, lots of them.

Here's a nice example of a cross-over food: Dutch style hagelslag, produced in Indonesia and imported into the United States.

The packaging has an image of a girl on a bike, and it says "smulpaapjes" on the side -- clear pointers to a Dutch heritage.

Hagelslag is a very popular sandwich topping in the Netherlands. In the US it is referred to as 'jimmies' or 'chocolate sprinkles' but is not typically used for sandwiches but more for cake decorating.

I saw this hagelslag last week in Grand Asia Market in Cary, NC; it's also available online. I brought a package from the Netherlands and that will last us a long time, so I won't try the Indonesian product anytime soon.

Tonight I attended a presentation on the use of Second Live and other 3D worlds in education. It wasn't earth-shattering but it was an informative presentation. Bill Krebs, the presenter, clearly enjoys using these tools and it was fun to hear more about the community in Second Life and some of the pro's and con's of using such tools for business purposes.

It's always nice to go out and meet other engineers. I spoke with someone who started a company to provide data for tools like Layar, the augmented reality browser, and other interesting folks. I won a book in a raffle, and I choose Beginning Scala by David Pollack.

The evening was organized by the Agile RTP group and hosted by Allscripts in North Raleigh.
