Contract-Driven Development – a Real-World Adoption Journey
Contract-driven development adoption is not just about tooling or practices, it involves changing how people work with each other and in order to influence such changes, the roadmap for adoption should account for the learning curve and demonstrate value incrementally at each stage to individual team members and the organization as a whole.

Interactive Microservices as an Alternative to Micro Front-Ends for Modularizing the UI Layer
While microservices architectures are well established for the back-ends of software systems, the same cannot be said for front-ends. Interactive microservices are based on a new type of web API that Qworum defines, the multi-phase web API, where the endpoint calls may involve more than one request-response pair, also called a phase.

The Process of Creating Decentralized Apps (dApps)
A decentralized application has a different architectural approach; they are working on distributed ledger technology called blockchain, where there is no central point of failure nor third parties involved. A revolutionary and attractive technology for new opportunities. This article covers creating such applications and why they are needed, as well as challenges during implementation.

How Practicing TCR (Test && Commit || Revert) Reduces Batch Size
The practice of test && commit || revert teaches how to write code in smaller chunks, further reducing batch size. TCR yields high coverage by design, which smooths the downstream testing pipeline.

How I Contributed as a Tester to a Machine Learning System: Opportunities, Challenges and Learnings
Have you ever wondered about systems based on machine learning? In those cases, testing takes a backseat. And even if testing is done, it’s done mostly by developers themselves. A tester’s role is not clearly portrayed. Testers usually struggle to understand ML-based systems and explore what contributions they can make. This is a journey of assuring quality of ML-based systems as a tester.
