18 Nov 2008 : Zero Turnaround in Java Development 
Turnaround is the time it takes for the changes in code to propagate
to the running application. Currently the average time spent waiting
for building and deployment is about one minute. In fact turnaround
takes even more time away, due to the interruption penalties and
quality degradation.
In this talk Toomas Römer will review how to get the time from hitting
Ctrl+S to refreshing the browser to less than one second. Using modern
IDEs like Eclipse, NetBeans and IDEA and a toolset of tricks it is
possible to almost eliminate the build from the turnaround. Using
frameworks like OSGi or Tapestry 5 and code reloading solutions like
JVM HotSwap and JavaRebel is is possible to also lose deployment out
of the picture. After this talk you should be able to significantly
reduce turnaround, whether you're starting a project from scratch or
maintaining an existing one.
