Recently, I was back on the job hunt. At one particular interview, my potential future colleagues and I got into a discussion about testing, specifically the term end-to-end testing. I was in the awkward position that I didn't have a word to describe a type of test where you run your web application in a real browser...
Vite brought super fast bundling and hot reloading to our regular dev workflow, and Vitest is doing the same for our testing workflow. So I'm mostly transitioning away from Jest in favor of Vitest. But there are a lot of amazing tools in the Jest ecosystem, and not of them can be easily replaced. Luckily, the Vitest API is mostly compatible with the Jest API...
In this article, we'll explore the integration of AI-assisted development with established best practices. We'll discuss how to leverage techniques like TDD, writing user stories, and setting acceptance criteria in the post-ChatGPT era, addressing the limitations and opportunities presented by LLMs...
I could never quite wrap my head around how to test SSR applications (Nuxt, Next.js, Laravel, etc.) that talk to HTTP APIs (e.g., microservices). Using the built-in mocking capabilities of tools like Playwright and Cypress is not possible in this scenario because...
In this article, we’ll explore using SQLite with the VSS plugin to build a “similar products” functionality with Nuxt, Vectory Search, and SQLite...
One thing that is often overlooked in the current AI chatbot hype is another use case for Large Language Models (LLMs): Vector Search with text embeddings...
This article might not meet your expectations if you're looking for a black-and-white answer to whether returning composables from other composables in Vue is an anti-pattern. Instead, I aim to explore this concept and share my perspective...
Managing data across different components is a common challenge when working with modern web frameworks. Imagine a typical scenario where actions (e.g., deleting or updating data) in one component must reflect changes in another—for example, fetching a list of items, like products, and seamlessly reflecting updates like deletions across the app...
When we dive into the world of testing in programming, it's easy to get caught up in the numbers game—how many tests have we written? What's our code coverage? However, if we pause and consider the bigger picture, we realize that the true measure of success isn't the output it's the outcome...
When it comes to coding, sometimes less is more. This concept is encapsulated in The Rule of Least Power, a principle suggesting that for any given task, we should reach for the least powerful language or tool that gets the job done...
