I read an article about Test Driven Datamigration (German, PDF) and they mentioned a Sanity Suite. It is not well explained and there's no definition.
Is there a definition or is it a spongy word?

This is a small set of unit or integration tests, just to check sanity -- that the system basically works.
It can be useful to extract such a suite from your larger suite of automated tests for rapid testing when you don't have time for the full suite.
In practice, the sanity suite is often all that is developed, though it is better than nothing.

I have recently been thinking about one of my websites. It's getting big and gaining a community and I have realized; how would I implement new features. Would I code instantly on the website or would I have to pull a backup and code on it then put it back up on the server. Because both methods seem to be inefficient.
Would there be a way that I can do such a thing, like a version system (similar to apps)?
Create a duplicate, test your code until you're satisfied. Check the edge cases. Try to break it. Then, when you're sure it's solid, roll it out to your users during very light usage because you might need to turn off the whole site during the upgrade.
Testing, testing, testing is they key.

Testlink is a test management tool and i want to trigger robotium test cases from testlink and get the result back to testlink..Any help would be appreciated
The easiest way I know of is to use the Test Link plugin for jenkins.
You basically map the name of the junit test to the test in testlink and it will automatically bring across the results.

I need a online website to test MySQL statements (some sort of sandbox). Bonus points if you can store code and share it with other people. Something similar to jsfiddle.net for JavaScript. It allows code testing in a safe secure environment.
Theres an sql formatting tool that also reports syntax errors:

The execution time for the scripts is slower. Although this much in a browser is great.
And, The published web app's load time is highly intolerable, that contained junk ( Probably because the UI is done with UIBuilder and the spaces were taken in unicode characters or whatever ).
Two questions here.
For seamless responsiveness, Is that the script folks wished the complete javascript be loaded and run in the browser and there is nothing we could do about it ?
Any optimizing techniques we should look for.
I have found that hand rolling the html and delivering with HtmlService is significantly quicker than UIService. This obviously depends on your circumstances depending on how confident you are scripting your own validators and onEdit functions. But as a possible optimisation this is where I'd start.

Do any languages that support retry constructs in exception handling track and expose the number of times their catch/rescue (and/or try/begin) blocks have been executed in a particular run?
I find myself counting (and limiting) the number of times a code block is re-executed after an exception often enough that this would be a handy language built-in.
This is a really interesting question. I did a little research and apparently there is a design pattern called the circuit breaker pattern which was developed to handle such things. I have never heard of the pattern before and can't find much information about it.
There is a library which handles retrying an event for .NET available, might be worth a look. Heres a link to an article about it:
