Let's say I have a mobile application that is to be offered on many different mobile platforms like Blackberry, iOS, Android etc.
Is there any easy way to test across all platforms in many languages, something like a virtualization platform like VMWare Workstation on Windows?
Do any of these platforms have standalone emulators?

BlackBerry, iOS and Android all have standalone emulators. Windows Mobile and Windows Phone 7 do as well (the WP7 emulator is Best-In-Class without a doubt).
There is no easy way (or any way at all, really) to write an application that will run on all of these platforms, let alone to test such an application.

check http://www-01.ibm.com/software/mobile-solutions/worklight/ ,IBM Worklight provides an open, comprehensive and advanced mobile application platform for smartphones and tablets, helping organizations of all sizes .
Can develop same app for Iphone,Android, blackberry,just needs to chand the environment for three wich is provided with the worklight tool.

best solution for mobile website locally testing
Note: I am using windows 7 with visual studio 2012.
A good way to do this is to simply hook up your mobile device to the network that your machine is on and visit the IP Address associated to the machine on your port.
Note that IIS Express is a pain to configure in this regard, so it will be good if you can setup your site to run on IIS on your primary machine, and configure it to be default website bound on either port 80 if you have nothing else, or another unique port so that the hostname is not required.

There are some documents to port application from Windows Phone 7 to Windows 8. I need the opposite but Windows Phone 8.
Are there any helper documents to easily port my Windows 8 app to Windows Phone 8?
May be this articles will be helpful:
Windows Phone 8 and Windows 8 platform comparison
Maximize code reuse between Windows Phone 8 and Windows 8
Well it depends.
There are couple of demo video's from Build. They go over code sharing and portability between WinRT and Windows Phone 8.
The general idea is that you should extract your application logic to a Portable Class Library. Than your Windows 8/WinRT and Windows Phone 8 apps can share the same application logic and have their separate UI.
Of course this doesn't work in all cases as some of the api's are not cross compatible. But for general cases it should work just fine.
Watch build video's, you'll find lot's of help

Hello all i am a beginner to wcf services what are the best books and tools for testing web services ?
Thank you
Sraven Kande
There are many test clients for web services on the internet. In my opinion, the best tool for testing WCF services is WcfTestClient provided by Microsoft and its located in the following in VS2010:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE
The other useful test client is SoapUI which you can actually save your test cases.
As for the books, I suggest the following:
Windows Communication Foundation 4 Step by Step
Professional WCF 4: Windows Communication Foundation with .NET 4
Pro WCF 4: Practical Microsoft SOA Implementation

It's basically a educational situation:
We've got a Intel Celeron 2.5Ghz / 512 MB RAM / >40GB Hard Drive.
We need to set up a basic SQL server for 5~15 LAN users with a >1GB database.
I can use debian, fedora, freeBSD, mandrake, opensuse, redhat, slackware, suse or ubuntu with firebird, mysql or postgreSQL.
[btw: it's a corporate decision, I can't pick anything else besides the one listed. What I can do is ask for support for another software - This is something that looks interesting since I believe that MariaDB w/ Slackware would be the best choice)
I basically need the most lightweight solution possible.
I'm thinking about Slackware with PostgreSQL, but I was wondering which one would be less dependent on hardware specs and easiest to manage, the traffic flow itself won't be very high but the database will have to up for tests for at least a semester or two before we can apply for a dedicated server..
I recommend debian with mysql.
Debian because its a very widespread system for severs and you get tons of documentation so its easy to setup and maintain.
mysql because its simple and well documented.
