Unit testing is one method we can use to ensure that our software is doing what we expect. I'll discuss how we can apply this technique to ensuring our FileMaker custom functions are giving us the results we expect.
So we've now got a new version of FileMaker . It's got improvements across the board which make it a better, more productive development environment. There are no dramatic surprises as FileMaker has kept up their mantra of slow and steady improvement in the product. Many of the changes appear to be small, but smooth away the rough edges. The .fp7 file format has been maintained, so no conversion process is required to use an existing post-FileMaker 7 solution.
