I have just updated the bits for ColdBox 2.6.0 Beta 2. This update includes tons of fixes on caching, request context optimizations, var scoping fixes, sample application updates, flex tester upgrade, dashboard windows compatibility, mxunit generation, performance updates and a new Cheat Sheet. Phew!! What a week getting ready for CF. Objective. The other update is for the extra downloads, the plugin pack. The plugin pack includes an update rssReader plugin that will now cache either in the coldbox cache or files. This gives you more versatility. Also, you can now decide how many entries per feed you want to create. The other update is also for the plugin pack, new plugin called paging.cfc. This plugin will create a carrousel for paging for any type of recordset or whatever you want to create paging or carrousels for. The api is very simple to use. Anyways, please enjoy this beta and test to your heart's content.

Hi, i was having a problem trying to d/l the plugin pack from the depot page:

http://ortus.svnrepository.com/coldbox/trac.cgi/wiki/cbCodeDepot

Turns out the plugin d/l link is wrong on that page:

http://www.coldboxframework.com/downloads/depot/plugins/pluginpack.zip

i believe it should be (without plugins directory):

http://www.coldboxframework.com/downloads/depot/pluginpack.zip

I love ColdBox! keep up the good work.

Inherited a CFML Application With Few Tests? Here’s Where to Start!

You need to change an application that has been running for years.

It might be a ColdFusion customer portal, a Lucee application supporting internal operations, or a CFML system your team is preparing to modernize. People depend on it, but some of its behavior lives in old tickets, scattered documentation, and the memory of whoever has supported it longest.

Now a release is approaching. You know more testing would help. The difficult part is deciding where to begin without putting every other priority on hold.

Start with one important workflow and build evidence around what it needs to do.

Your ColdFusion Upgrade Passed. Did Your Business Workflows?

The server restarted. The administrator shows the expected version. Your homepage loads, and a few familiar screens look fine.

Would you tell the business the upgrade is complete?

Consider an illustrative scenario: a customer submits an order after an upgrade. The application saves it and displays a confirmation page. But the confirmation email never arrives, and the scheduled process that sends the order to fulfillment has not completed.

From the browser, the transaction...
