If you look at the backend of a big website coded in CSS, you will encounter many repeating codes. They might be coding for particular text color or text size or even fitting the images to the right size for your screen. The problem comes in when you want to change these codes. Since they are so recurring, they demand global search. Custom properties of CSS variables allow all such values to be stored in one place and can be referenced throughout the document without having to retype it every time.

As we explained in a previous post, where we explained What End-2-End Testing is, we described End-to-end tests as a frequent type of automated testing used to ensure that your websites work properly (sometimes called e2e tests).

Python is ranked third among programming languages in the Stack Overflow Developer Survey of 2021, after JavaScript and HTML/CSS.

Whether inflation, global conflict or supply chain disruption, 2022 has been full of significant events that have fundamentally impacted the business landscape. The undercurrent is an accelerating de-globalization process. But this isn’t just geo-political in nature; the re-distribution of power and fragmentation of data are inextricably linked. As a result, data-driven businesses are having to adapt to a more distributed world – fast.

With today’s accelerated pace of delivery, you need to manage dev speed while keeping high-quality ships. This requires a focus on both quality assurance and development into quality engineering. These two goals can often be at odds without a robust system for process and testing.

Testing is the most critical part of the Software Development Life Cycle(SDLC). Testing is performed at different levels such as Unit Testing, Integration Testing, and Functional Testing. Testing can be performed either manually or through automation. The tools or libraries which are used for test automation vary with the framework that you are using. For example, if you are using a JavaScript framework, you might have to use Jasmine, Jest, etc.
