Angular - Karma–Chromeless tests fail with ERROR - Disconnected, because no message in 10000 ms.

After switching from PhantomJs to Chrome in headless mode for our Angular tests, our tests started to behave flaky with sometimes success and sometimes failure. When the tests failed, we saw the following error message in the logs:

[32m28 08 2018 10:41:44.851:INFO [HeadlessChrome 68.0.3440 (Windows 7.0.0)]: [39mConnected on socket W4CI4bKonF845CKZAAAA with id 22875346

To fix it, we changed the default Karma settings to a more fault tolerant configuration.Therefore we opened up the karma.conf.js file and added the following 2 settings:

  • browserDisconnectTolerance: 2, // maximum number of tries a browser will attempt in the case of a disconnection
  • browserNoActivityTimeout: 50000, // How long will Karma wait for a message from a browser before disconnecting from it (in ms).

Here is our complete karma.conf.js file:

Podman– Command execution failed with exit code 125

After updating WSL on one of the developer machines, Podman failed to work. When we took a look through Podman Desktop, we noticed that Podman had stopped running and returned the following error message: Error: Command execution failed with exit code 125 Here are the steps we tried to fix the issue: We started by running podman info to get some extra details on what could be wrong: >podman info OS: windows/amd64 provider: wsl version: 5.3.1 Cannot connect to Podman. Please verify your connection to the Linux system using `podman system connection list`, or try `podman machine init` and `podman machine start` to manage a new Linux VM Error: unable to connect to Podman socket: failed to connect: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:2655: connectex: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. That makes sense as the podman VM was not running. Let’s check the VM: >podman machine list NAME         ...

Cleaner switch expressions with pattern matching in C#

Ever find yourself mapping multiple string values to the same result? Being a C# developer for a long time, I sometimes forget that the C# has evolved so I still dare to chain case labels or reach for a dictionary. Of course with pattern matching this is no longer necessary. With pattern matching, you can express things inline, declaratively, and with zero repetition. A small example I was working on a small script that should invoke different actions depending on the environment. As our developers were using different variations for the same environment e.g.  "tst" alongside "test" , "prd" alongside "prod" .  We asked to streamline this a long time ago, but as these things happen, we still see variations in the wild. This brought me to the following code that is a perfect example for pattern matching: The or keyword here is a logical pattern combinator , not a boolean operator. It matches if either of the specified pattern...
