eBook – Java Streams – NPI EA (cat=Java Streams)
Since its introduction in Java 8, the Stream API has become a
staple of Java development. The basic operations like iterating,
filtering, mapping sequences of elements are deceptively simple to
use.
But these can also be overused and fall into some common
pitfalls.
To get a better understanding on how Streams work and how
to combine them with other language features, check out our guide

Yes, Spring Security can be complex, from the more advanced
functionality within the Core to the deep OAuth support in the
framework.
I built the security material as two full courses - Core and
OAuth, to get practical with these more complex scenarios. We
explore when and how to use each feature and code through it on
the backing project.

Accessibility testing is a crucial aspect to ensure that
your application is usable for everyone and meets
accessibility standards that are required in many countries.
By automating these tests, teams can quickly detect
issues related to screen reader compatibility, keyboard
navigation, color contrast, and other aspects that could pose a
barrier to using the software effectively for people with
disabilities.
Learn how to automate accessibility testing with Selenium and
the LambdaTest cloud-based testing platform that lets
developers and testers perform accessibility automation on over
3000+ real environments:

Here we go…
1. Spring and Java
Surprising no one, Java is still number one, but interest in the language is making room for languages such as Kotlin or Clojure, which are seeing a whole lot of traction.
Blockchain technology is becoming more and more popular – hence the Java APIs pop up 🙂
Sometimes we need to bypass some aspects of security for the sake of testing and this trick comes in handy. Make sure not to use this in production, though.

Gatlings certainly packs a punch – I’ve been using it regularly for a while now and I quite prefer it to a tool like JMeter.

Learn how to look at software quality from the business perspective. Yes, this is a skill most developers lack.
If you want to bring a new idea to life, sometimes a complete working piece of software is not necessary. Definitely not intuitive, and definitely true.
