    Docker Containers: Enabling SSL for Secure Databases

    Why Enable SSL for Databases? Security is critical for any application, especially when dealing with sensitive data like financial records or user information. Databases such as MongoDB and PostgreSQL communicate over the network, making them vulnerable to interception. SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encrypts the communication between the client and the database server to prevent data…

    Efficient DOM Manipulation with the Virtual DOM and Refs

    The Secret to Fast and Responsive Websites Ever wondered why your favorite websites are so fast and responsive? It all boils down to how they handle DOM manipulation. The Document Object Model (DOM) represents your web page as a structured tree. Traditionally, we used JavaScript methods like getElementById or removeChild to make changes. But as websites get more complex,…

  • How to Use covdata for Better Go Code Coverage

    How to Use covdata for Better Go Code Coverage

    When you run your Go programs or integration tests, numbers of raw coverage files are typically generated and dumped into a directory specified by the GOCOVERDIR environment variable. These files contain valuable data about which parts of your code were executed during tests, offering a glimpse into your code’s effectiveness and robustness. However, sifting through…

  • Why Traditional API Testing Fails? Comparing Shadow, Production, Replay Techniques

    Why Traditional API Testing Fails? Comparing Shadow, Production, Replay Techniques

    I want to share the story of how our team at a fast-paced startup tackled the challenge of API testing without any dedicated QA team, the roadblocks that we encountered, and how we ultimately addressed these issues. Baseline Challenge We had 15-day sprints including mandatory unit and API testing. Initially, we relied on automated testing.…

    Decoding Network Traffic: Telemetry with Network Activity

    Network Telemetry, in simple terms, is like having a conversation with machines or systems located far away. It’s about collecting data from these distant sources to better understand how they’re performing. Think of it as a health check-up, but for machines or systems instead of people. This technology plays a crucial role in a variety…
