I'm using Capistrano 3 for deploying my application and I'm using a public gem that provided a set of default tasks and hooks specific for the platform I'm using.
Is it possible to remove from the deploy execution one task defined by the gem? I know how to add a custom task to a specific hook, but is it possible to remove an already defined one?

Is there a way we can add build with parameter option in jenkins for github organization project??
Appreciate for your answeres.
First, if you're using the GitHub Organization - It is deprecated and hasn't been updated in 2 years.

So you might want to consider using the Multi Branch Pipeline (MBP) in conjunction with Job DSL instead.
Next - the idea is that the MBP is dynamically creating branch 'jobs' when it scans the repo you provide. I'm not sure that you can't put a parameter block in the pipeline you create, but if you did and it worked, I wonder if the job can be automatically triggered.

I have a application scenario where I am currently executing my test cases(written in selenium C#) using MTM, I want to know whether same can be achieved using selenium java from eclipse?
The same can be achieved using TFS 2015, in which we can create a new build of type ant/maven.Once the build has been created queueing the build would result in execution of test cases on pre configured agent machine.
While creating a build we need to provide build.xml (for ant) or pom.xml (for maven) which will contain all the details specific to the project and execute the same.
No
You can't use MTM to execute Java tests, however Microsoft is moving away form that model. This is likely because of this issue and they have already moved to using Team Build with VSTS & TFS 2015+ to execute all sorts of Functional Tests.

They have a specific task for this and you can now associate all automated test results with Requirements for reporting without the need for Test Cases in tge middle.
I have created a Web Content Management library for use in WebSphere Portal. At the moment I'm using import-wcm-data to import the library, then I need to add some additional propeties to 2-3 files on the server under Resource Environment Providers and then restart particular services so those changes are detected.
Can anyone explain the benefits of using a paa over writing a simple bash (or similar) script to automate this process?
I don't understand if I get any advantages when using paa, or is paa even capable of updating properties files and restarting services?
I have been working intensively with PAA files and I must say that it is a very stable way of deploying a app requirering multiple depl steps and components.
It does need a startup process but is well worth it in a multi server environment.
You can do all the tasks that you can do in a Ant file as well as using the wsadmin script interface. I only update res env settings and the such in WAS and do not touch any props files for that reason since all settings are stored in WAS.
In my experience, a PAA is not a good method if you're merely importing a content library.
I don't think I understand why you are doing the import manually and not syndicating, but even if there's a good reason not to syndicate, the PAA process was too involved and required too many precursor actions (deleting libraries, remove PAA, deploy PAA and then activate the portliest) to be a viable option for something as simple as importing a WCM library.
Since activating the portlets I was importing with the PAA was an extra step, I don't believe you can restart applications either.
I need to create a reusable component that would only be used by other developers within a single SalesForce organization. The component is made up of VisualForce pages and Apex code. I believe this would normally be done as a managed package in ISVForce, but my understanding is that ISVForce requires additional reviews and this package is only for internal use - it shouldn't be listed on the App Exchange.
Is there a notion of managed packages for internal reuse? Or is there some other way to create distributable, closed-source packages?
You can simple create a managed package and install it to your org via install link, this way do not require security review because you do not need to publish your package in AppExchange. Just read a manual about creating managed package. I do believe that a creation of managed package without publishing in AppExchange is pretty simple and straightforward and that's what you really need
I have created Selenium Web Driver test cases and running it in Maven.
Can we schedule Selenium test cases to run at user-given date/time.
I googled and found few options like (1) creating a batch file & then adding it in Windows scheduler or (2) Using Jenkins
Somewhere, Quartz Scheduler was given.
Is there any other better method for it or which is the best method among these options.
Thanks !!!
We use Jenkins since it offers a variety of options to connect to different source control systems, allows building your requirement in variety of ways using scripts, maven commands, ant etc. You can create dependent jobs, use variety of plugins that add additional functionality to Jenkins, share reports, send emails ....and can schedule jobs on a variety of parameters as well like based on time or based on a commit in your repo or based on your build being deployed. I haven't used Quartz scheduler, so no opinions on that.
