How to map Windows password protected network drive automatically on Windows machine

 Windows Command :

net use x: \\server\share /USER:COMPUTER\User password

To connect/map any  network drive automatically when you reboot your system, you need to put this command in BAT file and run it with startup.

  1. Create mapDrive.bat file 
    @echo off
:: Delete already connected drive. (In case you run this bat file after login )
net use X: /delete

:: Now map/re-map network drive.
::COMMAND: net use x: \\server\share /USER:COMPUTER\User password
net use X: \\192.168.1.1\SharedFolderName /USER:\username password

::net use X: \\192.168.1.1\SharedFolderName /USER:\domain\username password
exit
  2.  Now create shortcut in Startup folder.
    1. Click on Start -> All Programs -> Startup
    2. Right click on Startup and select "Open"
      1. C:\Users\<USER_NAME>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
    3. Right click on Right panel and select "Create Shortcut" option. (Available under "New" )
    4. Browse the location where you created mapDrive.bat and select it. Click OK->Next and Finish it.
  3.  To test this is working properly, just reboot your system. Your network drive should be connected automatically after reboot.

Major Differences between Python and Java

Image
Python and Java are both popular programming languages that have been around for many years. While they share some similarities, there are also some key differences between them. Syntax: One of the most obvious differences between Python and Java is their syntax. Python is known for its simple, readable syntax, which is designed to be easy to learn and use. Java, on the other hand, has a more complex syntax that requires more code to accomplish the same tasks. Performance: Java is generally faster than Python when it comes to execution speed. This is because Java code is compiled into bytecode, which can be executed directly by the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). Python, on the other hand, is an interpreted language, which means that each line of code is executed one at a time by the Python interpreter. Memory Management: Java manages memory through a process called Garbage Collection. This process automatically frees up memory that is no longer in use, which helps to prevent memory leaks ...

Cypress V/S Selenium

  Cypress V/S Selenium During my learning of Cypress, I noted down a few important differences between these tools. Documentation: Cypress Selenium Feature Cypress Selenium Language Support JavaScript Multiple languages including Java, C#, etc. Test Architecture Mocha test runner and Chai assertion library built-in Requires separate test frameworks and assertion libraries Browser Support Chrome, Firefox, Electron Multiple browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, etc. Test Structure Built-in test runner and assertion library Needs separate test runners and assertion libraries Test Execution Faster execution Slower execution due to the use of WebDriver DOM Manipulation Native commands for DOM manipulation Needs to use JavaScriptExecutor for DOM manipulation Locators Cypress uses jQuery-like syntax for selecting elements Selenium uses various locating strategies such as XPath, CSS Selector, etc. Automatic Waits Automatically waits for commands to complete before moving...
