which one is better? Ant-IVY or Maven?.
That really depends. From my experience I would suggest to use
Maven for new projects - it is simply easier and less to worry about
Ivy for old projects which have complicated and established build process in ANT - the conversion to maven may be real pain
It also serves slightly different purposes. Ivy is dependency management only and adds basically just some ant tasks (you are still in ANT) where Maven does lots of extra stuff (packaging, deploying, site generation etc.).

For me both of them looks quite similar if it's going to features, but it's hard to say without using them (yet). So I have few questions:
1) Are they really feature comparable (more or less)?
2) Is there any example of enterprise or big open source system using any of them?
3) I have impression that Squeryl have better documentation, is lack of documentation in case of ScalaQuery real problem?
4) Which of them is growing faster and/or is faster on fixing the bugs?
5) Is any of them easier to use / more productive?

I've been learning PHP OOP for quite a while and I've loved getting to know the language, finding solutions to problems and so forth.
Although, quite often, people keep recommending different frameworks for me to start using. I can imagine using a framework is more efficient, time effective and so forth but It seems to take quite a lot of the fun out of things.
My next challenge is to create a fully functional tutorial website and blog.
My question is, do you use a PHP framework and should I really start using one?
I was also debating whether to use CodeIgniter or CakePHP...

Does someone know a free web-based test case management software? I looked around in the internet and on some comparisons, but either they are expensive as hell or looking bad as hell ... (basic HTML tables).
Thanks for your hints!
I also tried for same but as u said no tool can fulfill requirements so i am using Test Point Metrics approach. It is best approach in any environment. By this approach not only we can do unit and integration testing but also validate the requirements. Time for writing Test Point Metrics is just after the Requirement understanding
A template of Test Point Metrics available here:
http://www.docstoc.com/docs/80205542/Test-Plan
And a comprehensive review on such tools available here:

I recently got interested in web development coming from kernel based applications. I am curious to what the best development environment and language that one can use to build a nice looking website. I have a distant familiarity with PHP, CSS and the like but I am comfortable with HTML.
To be perfectly frank: it doesn't really matter.
As long as it produces useful HTML, CSS, and perhaps JavaScript, you can have a beautiful website (and you can also produce bad websites!). The development environment is purely a matter of taste for the programmers.
As long as you are disciplined and attack the project with a plan, know a good designer or two, and have the will power to see it through till the end, you'll be successful.

I am using WIX at the moment, but keep on running into limitations (such as ability to expand properties as the value of another property). Also not sure if I ran into a bug with the FileSearch element, because it is not working as expected (does not find a file that is definitely there). I can go the route of using custom actions built into a dll, but was just wondering if there is a beter way.
I think the best tool (maturity, features, documentation, easy-of-use) is currently AdvancedInstaller. I'm not usually recommending commercial tools but this one is really good value for money.
They also have freeware edition for basic needs.
I have been using Installshield almost a decade by now.
