Unit tests are performed on a single unit of code, usually on a specific function, variable or flow. They allow us to test the components in isolation and validate each single component’s reliability in turn. In this article we’ll introduce the concept of Swift unit testing, and explain, at a high level, why you should carry them out, how you can start developing your iOS apps in a test driven development methodology and how you can write Swift unit test cases.

Microservices architecture has emerged as a popular approach for developing software applications in recent years. Instead of building monolithic applications, microservices architecture involves breaking down an application into smaller, independent services that can be developed, deployed, and scaled independently. This approach offers a number of benefits, including increased flexibility, better scalability, and improved fault tolerance.

If your business deals in large volumes of data, chances are that you are at least somewhat familiar with PostgreSQL, or you may use it actively in your data management strategy. PostgreSQL is a powerful relational database system, and it is completely open source. As of 2019, PostgreSQL was the second-most-common database solution for professionals. Thirty-four percent of more than 75,000 Respondents reported that it was their first choice.

Natural language processing and large language models to help BigQuery process dataframes.

The rise of generative AI and the massive popularity of OpenAI’s ChatGPT has led to widespread recognition that software applications are about to fundamentally change. Generative AI offers the potential to both deliver breakthrough new application capabilities and transform the way people interact with software.

Automated testing has emerged as a prominent practice that leverages machines (compute power, scripts, machine learning, genAI) to validate the quality of a software application. With the promise of increased efficiency, broadened test coverage, and accelerated software delivery, automated testing has become a cornerstone initiative for modern software engineering teams.
