Have you ever come across a website that made you scroll over it again just to see the motions and transitions and made you GASP, thinking how hard it must be to create these amazing animations, One such animation I saw on keploy website, the parallax effect which made me go through there Developer section twice!

The adoption of eBPF (Extended Berkeley Packet Filter) has revolutionized high-performance applications, tracing, security, and packet filtering within the Linux kernel. Specifically, TC-BPF, a type of eBPF program attached to the Traffic Control (TC) layer, has emerged as a powerful tool for packet manipulation in both ingress and egress. This blog delves into the practical application of TC-BPF to redirect DNS queries in a Docker environment.

Logging is an integral part of software development, providing developers with valuable insights into the behaviour and performance of their applications. In the Go programming language, various logging libraries, such as the standard library’s log package or third-party options like logrus , zap and zerolog, facilitate the generation of log output.

In the vast landscape of cybersecurity, authentication stands as the guardian of digital fortresses, ensuring that only the right individuals gain access to sensitive information and services. Imagine you’re at the entrance of a top-secret facility, and you need to prove your identity to the security personnel. In the digital realm, this is precisely what authentication mechanisms do – they verify your identity before granting access.

Not long ago, I was handed a problem that’s no stranger to the world of programming: making asynchronous threads communicate effectively within the same process. Given the widespread nature of this issue, I expected to find an existing solution to resolve it. My search led me to the concept of message queue, which seemed promising for streamlining this communication challenge.

While working on an application that required executing a command to run a blocking program, such as a TCP/HTTP server, I encountered an interesting challenge. I needed a way to stop the application and its child processes when a signal was sent to the main program, such as SIGINT (Ctrl+C) or SIGTERM. This blog post shares my journey and the solutions I found to manage processes effectively in a Go application, focusing on Linux environments.

In this blog, we will demonstrate how to get the code coverage data for each incoming request on a python web server built using any web framework.

Whether you’re building a web application, a mobile app, or any other software product, integrating with third-party APIs is almost inevitable. But what happens when you need to test your application’s behavior without relying on these external services? That’s where the magic of simulation comes in handy. In this blog, we’ll explore how you can simulate responses effectively, even if the actual service isn’t available.

Table driven tests, also known as parameterized tests, have became very popular over the past few years, due to their ability to eliminate repetition. Table driven tests make it quite a bit easier to re-use the same values for different sets of tests by just moving the table outside of the scope of the test function. Different tests may benefit from the same input, and each test may have completely different configration, concurrency etc…

Imagine you’re a miner with a canary in a cage. If the air is toxic, the canary reacts first, giving you a heads-up. Canary testing works in a similar fashion for your software. Instead of releasing the whole flock (users) into a potentially toxic or buggy environment, you release just one canary (a small subset of users) to test the waters.
