New Book on QuickCheck
Hi Everyone
I just wanted to let everyone who may be following the blog know that I have published a new book on using QuickCheck with Erlang. If you have heard about QuickCheck, or PropEr or property based testing in general, and didnât know where to get started then this is the book for you. It starts with very basic âHello Worldâ type tests, and then moves up to generating data, testing stateful systems, Property Based Test Patterns and will even include bonus chapters on how to generate HTML and how to do TDD with quickcheck

052 â Erlang in Anger
Ever have a system go strange on you, or fall down under load? Erlang has some amazing tools to try and debug these cases. Regular panelist Fred joins us to talk about his new book âErlang in Angerâ and his recon library. With these you will be in good shape to debug a system in production without breaking it more.

Erlang comes with its own datastores ETS and Mnesia. These store Erlang terms directly so you donât have to map your data into SQL types. They can also be used to create databases in Memory or on disk or both, this can lead to blindingly fast distrubted systems
We speak to Claus about how Mnesia was created and why. We also talk about when it is a good fit to use Mnesia for data storage and when it would not be.
If you are considering what data storage engine to use for your next project listen to this first.
