Shell interface Hippo - content-management-system

Did anybody use the shell interface of Hippo (JCR Repository over rmi)?

Do you mean: http://forge.onehippo.org/projects/jcr-shell/? I do use it and find it very useful from time to time. But I may be a bit biased because I wrote it.. ;-)

Which perl module to use to write tests with selenium?

We have site and want to write test. We decide to use Selenium.
May someone advice which modules to use? Are they work with recent versions of selenium? Thank you.
Did you look on CPAN? Test::WWW::Selenium seems like a good place to start.
Update: From the comments, you'll see that a better choice is Selenium::Remote::Driver.

As far as i know, First I need to pack my scripts using PAR, then i have to create GUI using XUL::Gui. after these steps, what to do?
Your help will be appreciated!
Thanks in advance

Expect-like tool for windows

I am searching for a tool that behaves similarly to Unix's expect tool (or at least, its main function).
I want to automate command-line interactive programs with it.
EDIT:
I am preferring single executables or small apps without big multi megabyte depencies.
Ty.
Take a look at ActiveState's Tcl distribution which has a port of Expect for Windows.
Late answer: Expect.exe, compiled with Go, running Lua-scripts. Fairly new, but does exactly what it is supposed to do. See https://github.com/zetamatta/expect/
Check the closed issues as well.
I guess AutoIt is what you need.
I your familiar with expect, then why not install Cygwin and run it that way?
You could use pexpect, written in Python.

Discover Zeroconf/Bonjour Nodes?

Is there an easy way to scan a given network for Bonjour/Zeroconf services?
I have a set of computers (Linux, Windows, Apple) and would like to auto-generate a list of all available Zeroconf-capable, networked nodes in my Intranet.
If using Linux and the Avahi-Daemon, it looks like Avahi-Discover is worth an investigation.
You'll obviously have to download/install/launch it though. On Ubuntu/Debian, you can use the following:
% sudo apt-get install avahi-discover
And launch GUI with:
% avahi-discover
I haven't used it, but you might want to take a look at the Mono Project's Zeroconf library.
It looks like they have a query tool mzclient that may help you.
If nothing else, you should be able to build something in C# using that library.
By far the most reliable method (I've tried all these, building a MDNS capable embedded product) is to use the opensource 'Bonjour'. This is the mDNSResponder daemon, and its available here:
http://opensource.apple.com/source/mDNSResponder/mDNSResponder-320.10/
mDNSResponder package has a Java JNI library and examples which let you poll all the available services.
#EdH, thanks for your post. I up voted it. I haven't tried Mono.Zeroconf yet, but I am positive that it will work since Bonjour/Zeroconf has changed very little in the last couple years. I am only looking for basic functionalities like service publish and discovery. The mzclient seems a nice location to start with. I dug out the git location for the source: mzclient on github . Hope this helps others looking for a similar solution :-)

What RAD tools are out there for GUI building in Perl?

I need to do some quick-and-dirty Perl GUI building. I can't afford a Komodo License.
What would people recommend as a free (as in beer) alternative. I don't care if it is UNIX or Windows or both. I would be using either Win32 Perl or Perl/Tk depending on what has the best solution. I would also look at any PM's that use something else.
For Perl/Tk, there is ZooZ.
Personally, I prefer to use Glade for the GUI design and Gtk2::GladeXML. And as other people mentioned, there's also WxWidget and Qt alternatives.
The Perlmonks post http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=627282 might help, as well as the google search for "perl gui builder". Once you see what's available, you might be able to ask a more specific question to get a better answer.
Good luck, :)
