Progressive enhancement is an approach to web development that aims to deliver the best possible experience to the widest possible audience, and simplifies coding and testing as well. Whether users are viewing your sites on an iPhone, the latest and greatest high-end system, or even hearing them on a screen-reader, their experience should be easy to understand and use, and as fully-featured and functional as possible.
Developers know they ‘should’ be unit testing, but it can be intimidating and tedious, and they don’t always see the payoff for the effort they put into it.
Advanced Automated Software Testing: Frameworks for Refined Practice discusses the current state of test automation practices, as it includes chapters related to software test automation and its validity and applicability in different domains. This book demonstrates how test automation can be used in different domains and in the different tasks and stages of software testing, making it a useful reference for researchers, students, and software engineers.
This book on astronomical measurement takes a fresh approach to teaching the subject. After discussing some general principles, it follows the chain of measurement through atmosphere, imaging, detection, spectroscopy, timing, and hypothesis testing. The various wavelength regimes are covered in each section, emphasising what is the same, and what is different. The author concentrates on the physics of detection and the principles of measurement, aiming to make this logically coherent.
Coding and testing are often considered separate areas of expertise. In this comprehensive guide, author and Java expert Scott Oaks takes the approach that anyone who works with Java should be equally adept at understanding how code behaves in the JVM, as well as the tunings likely to help its performance.
Feedback. We’re always telling you that you need feedback, with a short feedback gap the time it takes to get feedback on your decisions, your code, your designs. Well, what if you narrowed the feedback gap to near zero while coding? You’d have continuous testing, a powerful idea that lets you fix bugs while they’re still small and fresh.,
Continuous , shows you how to use a combination of tests, tools, and techniques to immediately detect problems in code, before they spread.
BackTrack 4: Assuring Security by Penetration , is a fully focused, structured book providing guidance on developing practical penetration testing skills by demonstrating the cutting-edge hacker tools and techniques in a coherent step-by-step strategy. It offers all the essential lab preparation and testing procedures to reflect real-world attack scenarios from your , perspective in today’s digital age.
