Telerik has released another tool to help you get up to speed quickly with our RadControls for Windows 8. Come on in and see how to get this excellent resource from GitHub.

Introducing the RadGrid for Windows 8 HTML! In this post, we drop a grid in and configure the columns through the View Model.

Check out the latest status of the Conference Buddy applications being developed in Windows 8 (XAML and WinJS), Windows Phone, ASP.NET WebForms, and Windows Forms.

Whenever we plan a new release we try to navigate between several stakeholders; the customer requests (features, ideas, bugs), demands by our own Telerik teams (not the least,Telerik JustTrace), the ever changing landscape of technology (should I mention Windows 8 and JavaScript?) and, finally, our own aspirations and visions. Trying to find a compromise between these poles and tailoring it to time and resources is both exciting and difficult, as every project manager knows I guess. Despite the fact that we so often impose ourselves quite a challenge I'm always impressed near release time that...

Hot on the heels of the recently added support for QUnit and Jasmine JavaScript testing frameworks in JustCode, we have continued to evolve our Test Runner to make it even better. You will find many improvements in the latest version of JustCode in regard to running QUnit and Jasmine tests from within Visual Studio, and we’ve simplified the way you work with JustCode’s Test Runner to make it quicker and more convenient. Here is a detailed list of improvements: 

• Jasmine and QUnit tests run faster
• Support for any browser that is installed on your PC - Firefox, Chrome, Opera, IE, etc.
• Choose to run QUnit and Jasmine...

As we showed in the Jasmine blog post JustCode provides seamless integration of JavaScript unit testing inside Visual Studio. JustCode supports two of the most widely used JavaScript unit testing frameworks – Jasmine and QUnit, allowing you to leverage the one that better fits your needs or both.

Today’s post covers the support of QUnit JavaScript unit tests in JustCode.

JQuery’s QUnit testing framework

QUnit is a powerful, easy-to-use, JavaScript test suite. It's used by the jQuery project to test its code and plugins but is capable of testing any generic JavaScript code. In order to find out more about the framework and its capabilities please...

With every new release of JustCode we at Telerik are committed to providing you with the best tool for writing better, faster and error free code with ease. That of course includes testing it. With the latest and greatest version of JustCode we added support for two of the widely and most commonly used JavaScript testing frameworks out there - Jasmine and QUnit.

In this post we will cover the support for Jasmine BDD JavaScript tests in JustCode.

Industry first Jasmine support

Jasmine is a behavior-driven development framework for testing your JavaScript code. For more information and details about the framework please visit Jasmine official site....

Ctrl + Click is a widely used shortcut for Go To Definition in many development environments but not in Visual Studio. We, the JustCode team, find it really useful so we added it to Visual Studio. But we didn't stop there - we improved it even further. Read on to find the details.

With JustCode you get an enhanced Go To Definition. By default you can execute it in the Visual Studio editor using one of the following shortcuts: Middle Click, Ctrl+Left Click, F12, Ctrl+Enter, Ctrl+B. The first usage of this feature is not much different from the default Visual Studio...

The RadWindow control is part of the Telerik’s RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX suite and is intended to replace the standard browser’s popup (window.open()). Since the control is based on an IFRAME, it behaves just like one – basically, whatever can be done with an IFRAME, can be achieved with RadWindow as well. This fact is useful when you investigate a reason for some problem related to the RadWindow control. Just replace the RadWindow with a standard IFRAME or browser’s popup and see how your application will behave in this case. If the problem still exists, then it is not related to the...

This is a pretty common scenario when working with WebForms. There are many ways to achieve the desired result, but they have one thing in common – you should make sure that the controls are fully loaded in the page before trying to get a reference to them and use them in your JavaScript code.

In ASP.NET it is pretty straightforward to do that. For example you could use a label:
ASPX
<head runat="server">
    <title>Untitled Page</title>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function calledFn()
    {
        alert("code fired"); 
    }
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
        <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Run JavaScript Code" OnClick="Button1_Click" />
        <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server"></asp:Label>
   ...
