Scaling Drupal Development

Posted Tue, 26/05/2009 - 12:14 by stewsnooze
Abstract: 
Economist.com have a pretty advanced Drupal development workflow. I could cover it and help others see what good bits they can take. We could discuss: Using subversion (including vendor branches to manage upstream Drupal modules e.t.c and your changes to them) Continuous integration of your Drupal changes with Hudson. Automatic SimpleTesting your code. Automatic load testing with Jmeter. Using and automating Selenium to simulate real browsers . Doing all of this economically on amazon ec2. I'd be happy to switch this to a workshop or to narrow the focus on one area. Feedback very welcome.

Views handlers

Abstract: 
With views 2, views just got a whole lot more powerful. You can get a long way with just the GUI, but if you're building custom modules, or want to show data in a crazy way, you need more control. You need views handlers. Come and learn how views works behind the scenes (well some of it anyway!) and see how you can views enable your own modules and much, much more.
