<div dir="ltr"><div><u><b>Pairing session details-16th July,2014</b></u><br><br></div><ul><li>Learnt how to read error messages and locating problem areas for failing browser tests running on local machine.</li></ul><ul><li>
Learnt about string interpolation and string concatenation.Using String
concatenation,you cannot convert nil value to String while interpolation
does the other way round.It's better to use interpolation than concatenation for
strings.More details can be found here:<i><a href="https://github.com/styleguide/ruby" target="_blank">https://github.com/styleguide/ruby</a></i></li></ul><ul><li>Learnt how to ignore files you don't want git to commit.For
that we can create a local .gitignore or global .gitignore. Create a
file .gitignore_global in home directory ,paste rules from <i><a href="https://github.com/zeljkofilipin/dotfiles/blob/master/.gitignore_global" target="_blank">https://github.com/zeljkofilipin/dotfiles/blob/master/.gitignore_global</a> </i> Finally execute:<i><span> git config --global core.excludesfile ~/.gitignore_global</span></i></li>
</ul><ul><li>Learnt how to commit code using Github for Windows
application.Till now I had been using more of command line,but I can see
now how better this application is in terms of checking code
differences etc.I intend to use more of this application going forward.</li></ul><p>Hope this covers everything.</p><p>Thanks Zeljko for today's session .</p><p>Regards,</p>Jagori</div>
