When it comes to testing in #Kotlin, you’ve got a variety of options: the classic #JUnit or #TestNG, or even #Groovy with its Spock framework. But these approaches don’t let you tap into Kotlin’s full power on the test side. #Kotest does. Dive deeper into its features:…

I've never worked at Uber but I'm guessing the pick up time code is something like: fun pickUpTime() = Random.nextInt(1, 10)

Tonight I learnt that the collective term for hedgehogs is array. As a developer I like that. An array of hedgehogs.

@JedFrankowski Kotest, or Kotlin-test/JUnit are most common. Test Containers is a must, and avoid mocking (at all costs). You don’t need it, use manual stubs instead where needed. Spock sounds awesome, but not common in Kotlin afaik. You might run into some strange edges Power assert is neat

Just a publicity tweet - if you're looking for an easy to use lib to resize, scale, crop, bound, cover images on the JVM then my Scrimage library is a wrapper around javax ImageIO. sksamuel.github.io/scrimage/

@fernando_cejas @kotlin Ktor with Exposed is a great option. SqlDelight is amazing. Biased but Arrow for FP, and kotlin-kafka for Kafka streaming. Hoplite for configuration, and Cohort Spring Actuator replacement. Tegral OpenAPI for OpenAPI. Many other options available, and Coroutines ofc!
