Why We Choose Java Over The Python In Selenium Web Driver?BugRaptors
To choose language in Selenium web driver during an Automation testing, BugRaptor’s always uses the Java language over Python, as it is more powerful language and Selenium is also developed by java.
PHP Mega Meetup, Sep, 2020, Anti patterns in phpAhmed Abdou
PHP is one of the easiest programming languages to use ever and powers more than half of the internet.
With this ease of use, certain common patterns emerge that become harmful. This is especially true when your product or service is not expected to die soon. Some anti-patterns are coding, others are related to operating your service, especially with new docker stacks. We will go over some of the most common pitfalls with a focus on enterprise development.
Test driven development is a popular concept in software development, leading to higher quality code that’s easier to maintain. Automated testing is normally a foreign concept in the operations world, but as you ssh into your servers to make that quick fix or run your updated script (fingers crossed), you might be wondering if there’s a better way. A way that gives you the confidence in your script and lets you test those scripts in isolation. Well Arthur has good news for you, there is a better way! Test driven infrastructure (TDI) is now possible. He knows, it sounds crazy.
At this session you’ll learn the how, and more importantly the why, of TDI. You’ll see how Chef (or any other Config Management framework) can be tested with Test Kitchen and ServerSpec. You’ll also learn how to improve your feedback cycle with Docker, and using the Docker approach on a CI server. There may even be some live demos!
Finally, the Ops world collides with the Dev world in true DevOps testing bliss.

It's not what you code, it's how you code it. In this talk, I'll take you through real world examples of code drawn from the 40+ production Rails applications we have developed and maintained during the last 12 months and highlight anti patterns and examples of technical code debt in them. You do what you can do to avoid these, making your future lives simpler. Your future you will thank you...
No matter what language you use, developing code is the same ñ spec, code, deploy, maintain. The “Big Boys” have teams to manage each task, but what happens when you don’t? I’ll go over some different methods for maintaining internal and external programs that are cheap, open source, and make your life easier. PHP has a plethora of tools for us to use to effectively code and maintain our projects; and the best part is that they are generally inexpensive or even free. The trick is finding and using these tools effectively in a workflow that the developer can use.

There are many types of automatic tests, testing tools, libraries and approaches.
Automatic tests can save you a lot of stress but can also became a kind of a nightmare.
This presentation is an overview of what's available and how to use and not to use them to make them really useful.
Examples taken from PHP world. You might be surprised how many tools is available.

2019 StartIT - Boosting your performance with BlackfireMarko Mitranić
A workshop held in StartIT as part of Catena Media learning sessions.
We aim to dispel the notion that large PHP applications tend to be sluggish, resource-intensive and slow compared to what the likes of Python, Erlang or even Node can do. The issue is not with optimising PHP internals - it's the lack of proper introspection tools and getting them into our every day workflow that counts! In this workshop we will talk about our struggles with whipping PHP Applications into shape, as well as work together on some of the more interesting examples of CPU or IO drain.
We go over multiple programming practices, including general suggestions and workflows, in terms of developing a maintainable, extendable and readable software project. We also touch on particular issues, such as variable and method naming, software design patterns as well as commenting practices.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
