Abstractions are a critical part of software development. While we developers often abstract too much, software would take exponentially more time to build today without abstractions. Few write their own code to store data these days. We use databases instead. The same goes for web servers. And HTTP libraries. And JSON encoders/decoders. Like anything though, we can have too much of a good thing.
The Agile Manager

That six month experiment with Agile practices yielded off-the-charts results in time-to-market with quality, as well as sponsor and user satisfaction. It cost a lot, but everybody is smitten, and word has gone round the company. Everyone wants to know: what was different? Well, everything: automated build pipelines, stories, stand-ups, showcases, spikes, desk checks, you name it.

We’re happy to announce two new features that many of you have been asking for: custom dashboards and the ability to specify connection speed for your tests. Custom Dashboards. If you’re monitoring the speed of a few urls, the default “All Urls” dashboard works just great. But once you get more than 10 urls on a single graph it’s hard to see the performance trends easily.

This week we've made some pretty exciting new changes to your Favorites dashboards. Aside from a brand-new chart editor interface, you'll also notice that we've introduced two new chart types: histograms and correlations. In this post, I'm going to talk through some of the features in our new chart editor. I'll also explain in detail explain why I think histograms are such an important tool in your performance toolkit, and how you can get some fascinating insights by correlating other metrics on

You’ve likely uttered the phrases “test early and often” and “shift left,” but do you always remind yourself of the importance of that phrase from the end user’s perspective? Or has it become white noise? While the agile approach is focused on implementing small, iterative tests throughout the development and testing phases, the primary goal… The post Why Your Performance Testing Strategy Needs to Shift Left appeared first on Dotcom-Monitor Web Performance Blog.
HammerDB

HammerDB is open source and all of the source code is available at the sourceforge Git development site here [link] or the github mirror here [link]. This Git repository is updated with every release. In fact all of this source code is also included in readable form with each and every release. However if you have downloaded the source code and are looking to add features or make modifications such as adding new databases you may be wondering once you have the source code where to start.

The full cost of supporting software is often overlooked. It's relatively easy to track the time it takes to fix bugs that crop up, but that isn't the full picture. The problem is that when so much of the support process goes unnoticed, it's difficult to know where you could be saving time.
Technology Performance Pulse brings together the best content for technology performance professionals from the widest variety of industry thought leaders.

About a week ago I had written about using HTTPS with Node.js and hinted at hardware based two-factor authentication as my reason for needing it. In case you’re unfamiliar with 2FA, there are numerous approaches ranging from HMAC-based one-time passwords (HOTP) and time-based one-time passwords (TOTP) which are software based, to the hardware based universal two-factor (U2F) standard.

The role of testing has expanded far beyond making sure that an e-commerce website can cope with a traffic surge during the holiday shopping season. In the world of aerospace and defense (A&D), and for the Orion spacecraft project in particular, software testing is mission-critical.

Organisational Fluidity in Digital Platform Ecosystems: Strategic Alliance Teams Platforms which enable digital ecosystems are growing in prevalence. Organisations want, and need, to expose their APIs as an enabler for not only teams within their organisation, but partners and 3rd parties to build rich, connected applications and seamless digital experiences.

While the agile approach is focused on implementing small, iterative tests throughout the development and testing phases, the primary goal should be to deliver a world-class, consistent user experience.

Back in February 2018, Scott Sullivan, Partnerships Team Lead at Skillshare , sent me an email asking if I’d be interested in collaborating on an official ITCSS video course in conjunction with them. Sign up and learn ITCSS today! The email was extremely well timed. ITCSS is a mature and very successful piece of work of which I am very proud, but with my recent move to focussing more on front-end performance, I was keen to set ITCSS a little more free: I wanted to liberate the content and make i
