Practical Tips for Migrating SharePoint Customizations to Office 365Haniel Croitoru
When planning a migration of SharePoint on-premises environment to Office 365, the first thing that comes to mind is organizations often focus mainly on their content - all the documents and items stored across their libraries and lists. Of course, why wouldn't they? It's the reason that they started using SharePoint anyways. But in many cases, the SharePoint environment that has been well adopted and his highly use will include some level of customizations to help meet specific business needs. These may include forms and workflows, scheduled timer jobs, custom look and feel, business logic to interface with other line of business solutions, to name a few.
This presentation takes a look at ways to create a SharePoint Online environment that will provide a similar experience for your users. We will look are various technologies, including CSOM Scripting, Microsoft Flow, PowerApps, Forms, LogicApps, and Azure Functions.

Starting in May 2010, with SQL Server 2008 R2, Microsoft began talking more and more about "Personal BI". The focus of this discussion was a paradigm shift moving business intelligence from being something a few BI professionals do with a data warehouse to a practice done by Information Workers every day in familiar tools like Microsoft Excel and SharePoint. Over the course of this session we will show you the improvements that Microsoft has made in the 2013 stack to take this new focus from being a “nice idea” to a truly powerful reality. We will explore the improvements made to Excel, PowerPivot & Power View, & Reporting Services. We will explain the underlying technology that makes the new features possible and walk through demos of some of the shinier toys. At the end of the session you will walk away with a better understanding of what is new in 2013 for business intelligence and an extreme desire to build reusable data model that will undoubtedly bring real value to your business.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

86. Building
blocks of a
flow
• Services are sources and destinations of data in
a flow.
• Triggers are events that start a flow.
• Actions are tasks accomplished by the flow.
• Conditions allow for branching if/then logic in a
flow.
• Loops are for iterating over actions more than
once.
#SPFestDC
88. Triggers
• Some of them are events in your connected
web services, such as when a certain user
sends a tweet or a file is saved to your
Dropbox account.
• Other triggers are built-in, such as running a
flow on a recurring schedule or running a flow
in response to a web request.
• Finally, there are manual triggers, such as
launching a flow by clicking a button in
Microsoft Flow or Microsoft PowerApps.
Triggers often pass information about the
event that happened to actions in your flow.
#SPFestCHI#SPFestDC
90. Known issues
and
resolutions
• SharePoint lists on My Sites and that aren't of
type Custom List aren't supported. Support for other list
types are on our roadmap. To work around this issue,
create a custom list on a standard SharePoint site.
• SQL stored procedures can't be run on on-premises SQL
Servers. Only SQL Azure supports stored procedures at
this time.
• Do-until cards have rendering errors that make it difficult
to reference content from arrays.
• Document Metadata isn't returned from triggers on
SharePoint document libraries.
• Flows can't write to Lookup, Choice, People and Groups,
and Taxonomy fields in SharePoint lists. We recommend
using a simple string field until this is corrected.
• File triggers won't fire for files being added inside of
nested folders inside the folder you select.
#SPFestDC
91. Is Microsoft Flow the direct replacement for
SharePoint Workflows?
• No
• Microsoft Flow is the evolution of business process management allowing you to
build elegant solutions which have the ability to orchestrate data across various
line of business applications leveraging “clicks” and not code.
#SPFestDC
92. Page Design and Web Parts
Starting to put it all together
#SPFestDC
99. Web Parts
• In SharePoint 2013, a Web Parts page is a collection of Web Parts that
combines list data, timely information, or useful graphics into a
dynamic web page.
• The layout and content of a Web Parts page can be set for all users
and then, optionally, personalized for individual users.
• A site owner or a site member with the appropriate permissions can
create and customize Web Parts pages by using a browser to add,
reconfigure, or remove Web Parts.
• You can use Web Parts on Web Parts pages, wiki pages, content
pages, and publishing pages.

Where you collect data matters, just as much as what kind of data you collect. KISS, manage your columns as site columns.
% complete, Task Status and the Task Outcome fields must be displayed on the form in order for the Task Outcome to be displayed as buttons.
Add/remove columns, reorder columns, or modify the content type required, optional, hidden
You must have the Manage Lists permission to add a workflow to a list, library, or content type. In most cases, the site administrators or individuals who manage specific lists or libraries perform this task.
The primary development tool for a SharePoint Server 2013 workflow is called SharePoint Designer 2013.
SharePoint Designer 2013 provides a rich set of features specifically designed for workflow development against both the SharePoint 2010 Workflow platform and the SharePoint 2013 Workflow platform.
You work with SharePoint Designer 2013 by opening it on your local computer and then connecting it to a SharePoint Server 2013 site.

Every flow starts with a trigger. There are many different types of triggers.
Topic—Select the Topic design when you have a lot of information to share, such as news, events and other content.
Showcase—Use the Showcase design to feature a product, team or event using photos or images.
Blank—Start with a blank site and make your design come to life quickly and easily.
