gitconnected·4yBasics of CI/CD
Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery describe the process of the changes flows to the repository. CI server clones the repository, checkouts to the source branch, and merges with the master branch. If the build is successful, then the Pull Request is allowed to merge. Otherwise, the merge is blocked. The Jacoco plugin can solve the problem easily.
RUBYLAND·5yHow to have a productive programming day
productivity is not about ‘hustling’, it’s simply about not being wasteful with my time. Here are some high-level productivity tips I’ve learned over the years. Get up early and go to bed early. When possible, exercise before work. Don’t eat too much.
ITNEXT·5yClean architecture - making Node.js API shine!
Clean architecture is a software design philosophy that advocates for the separation of layers of code. The separation of elements lends itself to easier testing, where we can test each module independently of others. In order to be flexible with project dependencies, use dependency injection mechanisms. Code on the inner layers can only move from the outer layers.
DEV·5y7 design principles for developers
Using Relative Units & Percentage Widths helps your CSS styles flow across screen sizes. Use min-width media queries ensures that mobile styles get loaded without desktop styles mixed in. Start by listing features, not designing layout. Place key actions where it's easily accessible. Follow the thumb rule to operate their mobile device.
GitHub Blog·4y5 automations every developer should be running
GitHub Actions offers thousands of pre-written, community-built tests and automations that range from code quality to code review to testing. CodeQL finds security advisories across coding languages and packages, and then automatically displays them in your repository’s security tab. Run npm test in your workflows to push the latest and greatest software.
Pointer·4y3 Lines of Code Shouldn't Take All Day
FIFA intern writes about the importance of time to iterate in game development. The goal of this post is to help remind you to reflect on your current development process. Is there some piece of your pipeline taking longer than it needs to? Would unit testing bring benefits, but you keep avoiding it because you think there’s a big upfront cost to it?
Java Code Geeks·4y11 Front End Development Trends You Should Follow in 2021
Front end development involves implementing the web user interface through coding languages like HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Adopting the latest front-end techniques in a quick software development ecosystem is always in demand.

CSS-Tricks·5yFront-End Testing is For Everyone
There are many types of tests and perhaps that is where some of the initial fear or confusion comes from. Testing is an automated tool that finds errors in your development as early as possible. Tests also serve as a reminder that you may have forgotten to check your own work in a certain area.
Bits and Pieces·4yDependency Injection in JavaScript — the Best Tool You’re Not Using for your Tests
Dependency Injection in JavaScript is the Best Tool You’re Not Using for your Tests. Let me introduce you to your new testing best friend Fernando Doglio. Dependencies in your code can be anything, from a 3rd party library to the database where you save your data.
freeCodeCamp·4yWhat I Learned from The Pragmatic Programmer and The Clean Coder
I recently finished reading The Pragmatic Programmer 20th Anniversary Edition (2019) and The Clean Coder (2011) These books focus not only on how to write code, but on teaching you best practices for developing software. I’ll share some lessons I learned from them in this article.
The Next Web·5yGitHub introduces an AI pal to help you code better
GitHub is introducing an AI-powered automcompletion tool called GitHub Copilot. The aim is to learn how you write code, and to suggest lines and functions automatically. The tool is available only as a technical preview, so you’ll have to apply to try it via this page.
The Next Web·5yGitHub now lets developers upload videos to their repositories
GitHub just added support for videos in its project repositories. You can upload .mp4 and .mov files to issues, pull requests, and discussion comments. This makes it easier for developers and other contributors to show design concepts or bug reproductions without writing lengthy descriptions.
DEV·4yTop reasons to build an app based on microservices in Node.js
A microservice is a software design pattern, where a group of interconnected services builds the entire application. In contrast to the monolithic approach to software development, where the application is built as one unit, microservices are responsible for one function, they’re loosely coupled, isolated from the others, and independently deployable. Building applications based on microservices allow developers to focus on clearly defined modules.
ITNEXT·5yShare Programming Knowledge, Not Information
Document the information so that the next developer knows how the system works. Careful on Filenames: You have to rename test files as test.integration.js if you want to have access to test environment variables. The reason why the error "Couldn't find env var" occurs in CircleCI but works in local development is that the name of your file is *.spec.
Hashnode·5yHow to stand out as a software developer with no experience

The Software House·4yBest practices for software architecture testing
Architecture testing can be a daunting task – especially for devs who aren’t in the habit of testing architecture from the very beginning and continuing to do so as their deadline approaches. We’re here to tell you that it’s really worth the effort and save you a ton of time and tears in your next project.
JavaScript in Plain English·5yTesting 101 in JavaScript
In this article, we are going to learn about Testing in JavaScript. We will be performing some live testing with you. This will definitely, help you to know about testing. If you love to see video edition, I will be coming up with the same, in next week on my Youtube.
LogRocket·5yJavaScript testing: 9 best practices to learn
Tests act as a piece of documentation for other developers. By reading the tests you’ve created, they should get a good understanding of the purpose of the code. You want to break up the logic inside tests into three parts to make them easier to understand. The AAA pattern stands for Arrange, Act, and Assert.
