What is Test Coverage? Test Coverage vs Code Coverage What is the gap to have a true test coverage? How can tracing data improve test coverage? Relation between end-to-end tests and Tracing data Let's get our hands dirty with real code Write integration test using MockWebServer Write end-to-end tests without mocking interactions

Tips for becoming a better Java developer, including upgrading Java versions, learning Kotlin, exploring other languages/frameworks, understanding Loom and Structured Concurrency, getting coverage from Oracle, learning Groovy and Scala, practicing Continuous Feedback, using Ktor, building side projects, focusing on observability, staying connected with the Java community, reading professional developer blogs, following influencers on social media, and signing up for a Java articles reading list.

When discussing Observability, OpenTelemetry is crucial because it enables organizations to understand the internal state of their systems through telemetry data. In this article, we will discuss the important role of OpenTelemetry in enabling Observability in Java applications.

In this article, we want to share our experience with fellow developers and offer insights using real-life examples on how to identify and optimize slow SQL queries, especially when working with relational database management systems like PostgreSQL, MySQL, MSSQL, Oracle, etc.
