Python and Java are natural team-mates. Using Python together with the Java class libraries, developers at all levels can leverage Python's simplicity and Java's power together, building advanced Web and enterprise applications with remarkable speed and efficiency. Richard Hightower shows how, from start to finish. Using step-by-step examples, Hightower introduces the fundamentals of Python and object-oriented programming. You'll learn how to work with files, use Python's intrinsic functionality, and take advantage of Python's powerful string handling capabilities. Next, Hightower shows how to interface with Java APIs; how to build Swing graphical applications more easily with JPython; and, how to utilize SQL and JDBC to access enterprise data from Python programs. An important section shows how to use Python to solve problems that would otherwise require far more complex Java coding. For all Python programmers who want to take advantage of the Java class libraries. And. for all Java developers seeking faster, more efficient ways to build Web and enterprise applications.

Learn how to use the hottest new Java open source tools for eXtreme Programming eXtreme Programming (XP) is a new development methodology for building software systems quickly without sacrificing quality. New Java open source tools have appeared recently that help with the most time-consuming and difficult part of the XP process-testing, integration, and deployment. Java Tools for eXtreme Programming is the first complete guide to using those tools for XP. Throughout the book, author Richard Hightower uses a sample application to demonstrate how each Java tool is used. For each tool, he provides a concise description of key concepts, plenty of code examples, and directions for setting up scripts for automating the development step in which the tool is used. The book also features a detailed reference to each of the major tools, complete with coding examples. * XP is the most popular new development methodology * A practical, code-intensive guide to the tools that enterprise Java developers need when using the XP methodology to build applications Companion Web site features sample code, XP software tool updates, and links to useful XP sites.

What is this book about? The Extreme Programming (XP) methodology enables you to build and test enterprise systems quickly without sacrificing quality. In the last few years, open source developers have created or significantly improved a host of Java XP tools, from XDoclet, Maven, AntHill, and Eclipse to Ant, JUnit, and Cactus. This practical, code-intensive guide shows you how to put these tools to work ― and capitalize on the benefits of Extreme Programming. Using an example pet store application, our expert Java developers demonstrate how to harness the latest versions of Ant and XDoclet for automated building and continuous integration. They then explain how to automate the testing process using JUnit, Cactus, and other tools, and to enhance project management and continuous integration through Maven and AntHill. Finally, they show you how to work with XP tools in the new Eclipse IDE. Complete with real-world advice on how to implement the principles and practices of effective developers, this book delivers everything you need to harness the power of Extreme Programming in your own projects. What does this book cover? Here are some of the things you'll find out about in this book: <ul>
<li> How to automate the building of J2EE apps and components with Ant and XDoclet </li> <li> Techniques for automating Java testing using JUnit </li> <li> Procedures for automating servlet, JSP, and other J2EE testing using Cactus </li> <li> Ways to automate Swing testing with Jemmy, JFCUnit, and Abbot </li> <li> How to manage projects using Maven </li> <li> Techniques for automating continuous integration with AntHill and Cruise Control </li> <li> How to harness plugins for JUnit, Cactus, and Ant in the Eclipse IDE </li> <li> Ways to implement Extreme Programming best practices </li> </ul>
Who is this book for? This book is for enterprise Java developers who have a general familiarity with the XP methodology and want to put leading Java XP tools to work in the development process.
