This Tuesday the 28th we'll be bringing back the ColdBox Connection to introduce TestBox, CFML's new unit testing platform.  The show will be at Noon Central time.  TestBox is MXUnit-compatible so it's easy to get your current testing suite set up.  TestBox is also more flexible and supports the Behavior Driven Development (BDD) style of testing.  Come join us, and if you can't make it we will be recording the show.

Tuesday January 28th Noon Central Standard Time

Sorry for the confusion. The Connection is at Noon Central Standard Time-- That is the standard time for all our ColdBox Connections.

Which is still a cute little local nickname for a time zone, not a time zone. Googling..... UTC-6? Maybe? If it's America, not any of the other places that have a centre?

Hmm, not sure if I follow you. I'm pretty certain Central Standard Time is the actual bonafide name of a real time zone. <a href=http://www.timeanddate.com/library/abbreviations/timezones/na/cst.html">http://www.timeanddate.com/library/abbreviations/timezones/na/cst.html</a>

Introducing the BoxLang Spring Boot Starter: Dynamic JVM Templating for Spring

Spring Boot developers know the pain of evaluating view technologies. Thymeleaf is great — until you need more expressiveness. FreeMarker is powerful — until the syntax fights you. What if you could write templates in a dynamic JVM language that gives you the full power of the platform, feels natural, and requires zero setup to integrate?

Meet the BoxLang Spring Boot Starter.

Why Swiss Banks Are Modernizing CFML Platforms Without Rewrites

The growing need to evolve legacy financial platforms safely

These systems manage a wide range of functions, including:

Reactive vs Proactive ColdFusion Support: Why Waiting for an Outage Is the Most Expensive Strategy

Reactive vs Proactive ColdFusion Support: Why Waiting for an Outage Is the Most Expensive Strategy

Many ColdFusion environments operate in a reactive mode without realizing it.

Everything seems fine… until something breaks.

A server crashes.

Performance drops suddenly.

An integration stops working.

A security audit reveals missing patches.
