Stewart Mader, “the wiki whisperer”, visits Atlassian SF
I was pleasantly surprised to find Stewart Mader visiting Atlassian’s offices today and chatting with our Confluence Marketing Dude, Bill Arconati. As some of you may remember, Stewart was our very own wiki evangelist before going out on his own and starting his full time consulting practice, Future Changes. He’s doing really well and blogs […]

Fisheye 2 Beta Insight – People and Teams
With all of the announcements and activity surrounding Atlassian Summit last week, it’s easy to lose track of all the details.

I’ll be breaking this up into a series of posts over the next few days, so stay tuned… first up is Fisheye 2: People & Teams

Atlassian Agile Process Revisited
This is an update to a series on Atlassian’s Agile Process I did back in 2007.
Selenium Testing with Windows Integrated Auth
Automated web testing generally has problems testing sites using Windows Integrated Authentication. This is because the nature of integrated auth is to supply the credentials of the logged-on user – which in the general case is going to be the user running the tests. This may work in some cases, but at the very least it’s likely you want to test using both an admin and non-admin user. This can be done with Selenium, but requires some work to get it set up (I’m assuming we’re using Selenium Server here).
Atlassian does the Agile Enterprise Acid Test
How does Atlassian score on Dean Leffingwell’s “Agile Enterprise Acid Test”?

Charlie Award winners
We announced the Charlie Award winners at Summit 2009. Amid some fancy schmancy animations that had a passing resemblance to the Oscar graphic treatments (see Charlie’s graphic right) our own Hugh Jackman Jay Simons took the stage to announce the winners of this year’s awards. THANKS TO EVERYONE THAT SUBMITTED AN ENTRY! We were blown […]
New User Experience with Personal Pages in Confluence 3.0
Learning The Ropes The first project of my internship at Atlassian this summer was to create a video demonstrating how I built my personal page inside Confluence 3.0. This was an intimidating task because I had never used Confluence before. I didn’t even have any experience with HTML or programming, but somehow I had to […]
How Hamcrest can save your soul
I considered calling this post, “assertEquals considered harmful” but thought that it might be a bit too harsh. After all, assertEquals is still good for asserting that the primitive result of a calculation is accurate. But I will never again use it for complex objects and I hope to convince as many people as possible […]
