The software landscape at a modern financial services company is like a jigsaw puzzle, with many pieces that must fit together. For example: Software development can be more difficult in an environment that requires complex enterprise integrations. How do you create flexible, modern, and scalable applications that require technology integrations and data from dozens of sources?

Have you ever messed up the data structure within your objects and as a result came across irresolvable errors during run-time? If yes, you’re not alone, we have all been there as developers. When the deadline approaches and you have way too many modules to work on somehow these blunders end up becoming a rampant source of misery and confusion. This makes having Typesafe dictionaries and using them throughout your web development project essential.

React development is one of the most popular and highest-paid front-end development skills. And with its rising popularity, front-end development enthusiasts have flocked to learning and deploying unique development projects in React. However, if you're just a beginner and have created a project you wish to showcase in your portfolio, deploying it in a paid server is not among the best choices.

A Kubernetes preview environment is an isolated environment that allows developers to test their code at any time without worrying about how others may be affected. While implementations and use cases may vary, simulating a production environment as closely as possible is the main goal. Imagine you’re part of a team developing a complex API, and you’ve been tasked with adding a new endpoint that relies on features within the codebase currently being optimized by one of your team members.

When you execute your tests in headless mode, it means your tests are being executed in the background, without launching the UI. These tests are more efficient to run because the UI does not need to be rendered. When automated tests are executed, headless test execution can improve the efficiency of the tests too. In this blog, we will see how we can use Selenium to execute your tests on chrome in headless mode.

In the testing community, generally, when we refer to “Selenium,” we are talking about the Selenium client API that helps write test cases. Sometimes, we may mean Selenium IDE, but with the advent of no-code solutions in cloud platforms, Selenium record-and-replay, which was a hit, has lost its charm. However, we forget that Selenium is not just API or record-and-replay. It is made up of four components, and one of the most important among them today is Selenium Grid.

Now that we have explored monitoring apis with Prometheus, let’s take a look at monitoring our APIs with Grafana. You may have noticed from the previous blog that Prometheus is awesome, but takes some time to fully flesh out and their dashboards aren’t easy to read or very eye-catching. Luckily for us, Grafana specializes in data visualization. We won’t even have to configure all our Prometheus queries, so let’s get started.

In this blog, the team at Yellowfin Japan aimed to utilize various sets of open data and analyze them with Yellowfin, demonstrating its capabilities and the value of analyzing publicly available government data. So, what is open data, and what does it look like?

Business priorities, and therefore people priorities, are shifting at a pace like never before thanks to increasing interest rates, energy prices, political uncertainty, global supply constraints, and issues finding and funding expensive talent. People and HR leaders are going to be under considerable pressure to adapt and evolve quickly throughout 2023 in order to support their CEO’s much bigger focus on the workforce.

In this continuation, Allen Loew, a Principal Quality Engineer and Sauce Labs advocate, explains how saucectl has transformed his team's test efficiency. We’re excited that Sauce Labs new fellowship program is in full swing. Over the next several weeks, we’d like to introduce you to the five fellows who are working hard to improve and open source Elemental Selenium.
