At Netflix, we have adopted the Backend for Frontend (BFF) pattern : instead of having one general purpose “backend API”, we have one backend per client (Android/iOS/TV/web).

Manual cross-browser testing is neither efficient nor scalable as it will take ages to test on all permutations and combinations of browsers, operating systems, and their versions. Like every developer, I have also gone through that ‘I can do it all phase’. But if you are stuck validating your code changes over hundreds of browsers and OS combinations then your release window is going to look even shorter than it already is.

When you’re building a game, you’re probably going to have more than one screen. For example, you might have an initial menu screen, a main gameplay screen, and a game over screen. These screens can be thought of as scenes in a game, the same way you can think of scenes in film. Every scene that you have in your game represents a clean slate, or a fresh starting point for that particular subsection of content.

What Is TDD? Test Driven Development is a process where developers write the test case first and then run the test case to fail. Then, they gradually write the minimum corresponding code needed to successfully execute the test cases and then finally refactors the new code to acceptable standards. Just to summarize the following is the sequence of steps in TDD approach.
