The Dark Side of Java 8 - Lessons Learned (Grzegorz Piwowarek - Polyglot system engineer)
Java 8 was one of the most important Java releases ever... but still wasn't free of bugs, or just places where things could've been done better.
In this session, we'll go through a quick post-mortem session and explore what went wrong with the Stream API, Lambda Expressions, and much more, along with ways how we can address those problems.
-
Light-weight testing of database repository classes (Viktor Polischuk - Software engineer)
Fail-fast tests are usually better than slow integration tests which require quite a lot of infrastructure and data preparation. I would like to show a simple way how you can write tests with zero data preparation, fast, and short.
- Cool beer after-party!!!
