Will Hibernate Switch From Maven to Gradle?
Submitted by Tomek Kaczanowski on Tue, 07/06/2010 - 23:01Based on 'Gradle: why?' blog post from Steve Ebersole it seems like Hibernate is moving from Maven2 to Gradle!
Steve's post is really worth reading. He sums up his 2,5 year of Maven experiences and explains why he thinks of its time to move.
That would be just great for Gradle to "capture" such famous project! Go Gradle, go! :)

Growing Object-Oriented Software Guided by Tests - Book Review
Submitted by Tomek Kaczanowski on Wed, 01/27/2010 - 20:04
This is a review of "Growing Object-Oriented Software Guided by Tests" book by Steve Freeman and Nat Pryce (Addison Wesley, 2009)
This book is so great that I could write tons about it, but I tried to keep it reasonably short. :)
Quick Build with Gradle (BSBM Tools)
Submitted by Tomek Kaczanowski on Thu, 12/10/2009 - 12:36Today, I needed to have a JAR of BSBM benchmark tools. Surprisingly, when I downloaded the bundled zip from SourceForge, there was neither JAR nor build file inside (no build.xml, no pom.xml, nothing) - or maybe I'm blind.
Well, Gradle to the rescue. :)

It took place on 7-8th of May in my home town of Cracow, Poland. I enjoyed every bit of it - from interesting sessions to great catering.

This conference was special to me, because I was one of the speakers there with "Automation of functional tests" session. :)
