The manual is out; automation is in. I'm incredibly proud of our team and their fantastic work on fully automating our API documentation process. Special shoutout to Luís Santos Henriques and Diogo Correia for leading this project. By combining tools like TypeScript, OpenAPI and Fastify, we've built a system that significantly improves our development workflow through automated documentation updates and code autocomplete features. This approach allows our developers to author service-to-service communication much faster and without errors. By leveraging OpenAPI, JSON Schemas, and TypeScript, our team has developed a seamless process to maintain our frontend and backend microservices that boost efficiency, ensure accuracy, and greatly enhance developer experience! Check out Luís's article to learn more about this impactful approach: https://lnkd.in/dunVe_Ff #DeveloperEfficiency #Automation #Pipedrive

Android Studio Meerkat | 2024.3.1 Canary 1 is now available. But this sparked significant backlash from developers. Why? They want to put back Clean Project and Rebuild Project buttons! Many argue that these features are essential for effective development, especially when dealing with complex projects or resolving build issues. Here’s why developers are frustrated: 1. Android Studio should avoid creating situations where these buttons are needed. 2. Full-time developers use Clean/Rebuild multiple times a day. 3. Making it harder to use your computer's CPU for clean/rebuild tasks is frustrating. 4. Issues with views or Dagger/Hilt often require a clean/rebuild to resolve. 5. Google’s changes seem to make simple tasks more complex. 6. Removing these options ignores the real needs of developers. 7. Developers feel disconnected from those making these decisions. 8. Burying useful functions makes life harder for new developers. What are your thoughts on this change? Have you experienced similar frustrations with recent Android Studio updates? #android #mobile

Five years ago, we started MuukTest with a question: Could we make "Great Software Testing and Automation" easier? My cofounder Renan Ugalde & I each have 20+ years of Software Development & QA experience. We've seen Bad Software Testing and Great Software Testing - way too much of the former, not enough of the latter: Bad Software Testing:  - Nonexistent professional testing team, expecting "developers to do all their own testing" (which 'works' until it doesn't) - Wild, non-disciplined, exploratory testing that doesn't help  - Testing that's treated as a second-class citizen in an engineering org, not as a partner - Reactive, under-resourced testing teams  - Testing with deficient coverage and no automation at all - Testing that's treated as the last step in an assembly line - Massive teams of testers, treated like a boiler room - Testing that slows engineering down I spent years of my life in Software QA and Testing roles like this… where I spent my Christmas holidays frantically, manually running regression tests across an entire application that *had* to be released yesterday. This is bad Software Testing. It is stressful for everyone and doesn't lead to good outcomes. Great Software Testing is:  - Proactive - A mix of (smart, disciplined, strategic) manual exploration and automation - Partner to engineering - Happens throughout the engineering cycle - Performed and coordinated by small teams of testing experts  - Employs amazing tools - Helps engineering move faster - Delivers insights, not more work Since 5 years ago, we have always believed that 'Great, Fast, Efficient Software Testing' will be made possible by AI. Bad testing happens because of bad ideas and bad tools, but with AI helping with a lot of the heavy lifting of test automation and maintenance, 'Great, Fast, Efficient Software Testing' is possible for more teams. Proud of our work in AI, making Great Software Testing possible for ANY software team. Great Software Testing means better software, faster development, happier customers, and better outcomes for all.

Android app development tools are constantly evolving. The Kotlin Flow tool was released some years ago to address certain behaviors in Android LiveData. Today, both tools are available for implementation in our projects, but can they coexist? Is one superior to the other? In this article, Lucas Miotti, with Rootstrap Engineering team, analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of each tool according to context: https://hubs.la/Q02t8LFM0 #koitilinflow #android #livedata

A bit more than a month ago, Bending Spoons announced their acquisition of WeTransfer, an Amsterdam-based company. Today it's reported that the new owner will lay off 75% of the staff (~260 people) and it made me feel a bit pensive. If you don't know Bending Spoons, it's an Italian tech company which acquires existing products and apps. Their strategy so far has been to buy assets that are past their high growth phase, and to make them (more) profitable. Over the last 2 years they bought a few well-known names like Hopin/Streamyard, Evernote, Meetup, and now WeTransfer, on top of lesser-known ones. Each of there products has a number of devoted users and stable revenue, most if not all of them are profitable, though at least some of them failed to meet their potential: * Evernote was valued at $1.1B back in 2013, but since then has fell of a cliff and has laid off most of their staff * Hopin raised more than $1B and was worth $8B at some point, driven by the pandemic-related need for virtual events; since then they shut down all their original products, the only one remaining were acquired apps like Streamyard * Meetup is still the go-to place for finding local hobbyist events to attend, but changed owners 3 times in the last 7 years Bending Spoons' model is similar after every acquisition – lay off most or all of the staff and bring the development in-house to lower the costs. Their operations and development in Italy is significantly cheaper than in US, and their products have trusted, if maybe sometimes tarnished, brands that can keep their existing users and potentially bring new ones. Does this work? Private equity companies have proven that acquiring companies and optimizing their costs can work, however since these transactions are private they often remain undisclosed, so it's hard to say how profitable it is. So far Bending Spoons has raised more than $500M and is valued at more than $2.5B, and this year they have been on acquisition spree. Back to WeTransfer, this one hurts a bit. While I was never a heavy user, I've always seen WeTransfer as a special company – they are a certified B Corp, they've been using their advertising platform to promote artists and culture, they commissioned a short film that won an Oscar. They were also about to go public back in 2022, but their struggled with their business model under the new reality of higher interest rates. So it stings a bit that a local, Amsterdam based, quirky company with such an impact on culture ends up as just yet another product in a large portfolio. Good luck to Bending Spoons though, it's good to see a European tech company growing so quickly!
