Understanding Microservices Architecture

Understanding Microservices Architecture

Introduction: Microservices architecture is gaining popularity among businesses as it provides several advantages over traditional monolithic architecture. It is an architectural style that breaks down a large software system into small, independent, and modular services, each with its own specific function. These services communicate with each other through well-defined APIs and can be deployed and managed independently. In this article, we will dive into the understanding of microservices architecture, its advantages, disadvantages, and key features. Advantages: Scalability: Microservices allow for easier scalability as each service can be scaled independently based on its usage and demand. Flexibility: This architecture allows for…

The BigInteger and BigDecimal Classes

The BigInteger and BigDecimal Classes

The BigInteger and BigDecimal classes can be used to represent integers or decimal numbers of any size and precision. If you need to compute with very large integers or high-precision floating-point values, you can use the BigInteger and BigDecimal classes in the java.math package. Both are immutable. The largest integer of the long type is Long.MAX_VALUE (i.e., 9223372036854775807). An instance of BigInteger can represent an integer of any size. You can use new BigInteger(String) and new BigDecimal(String) to create an instance of BigInteger and BigDecimal, use the add, subtract, multiply, divide, and remainder methods to perform arithmetic operations, and use…

[WIP] Test UI?

[WIP] Test UI?

There are different solutions on test UI Jest unit testing Jest Snapshots Integration testing Image comparison testing Accessibility reports Manual testing When to us what? In my experience a big project will end up using all of them. Let start with the first Jest unit testing Unit testing is a type of software testing that focuses on individual units or components of a software system. Nice... but let also mention that: we want to test behavior and not implementation The goal is I can change 100% the implementation and the test will still pass How? the style is called "Black…

How I Overcame The Imposter Syndrome

How I Overcame The Imposter Syndrome

The first law to having a long a healthy career in software development is to embrace your imposter. We like to complain in the industry all the time about imposter syndrome. And it is a real psychological thing that some people have. But I think we often claim that we are experiencing an imposter syndrome and we are not. We are just programmers! Let me give you an example. Myself, after over 10 software projects, every project I joined, and this includes the project I worked on last year. For the first three months of that project, I'm swimming in…
