Gone are the days when the 80’s kids and their younger 90’s sibling babies used to gel along for a game of ‘Snake’ or ‘Space Impact’ on dad’s mobile phone, which was built to last the sands of time. Now that the technology has evolved at breakneck speeds, it was inevitable to witness the breakthrough we did in this decade. Sure, the app development dynamic only shaped up after smartphones came into the climax of their existence. That only happened when bigwigs saw potential in this market that inevitably paid off. At this very moment, there are close to 4 million apps on the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store combined. If it weren’t for the breakthroughs, the world wouldn’t be swapping between its four favorite apps on a six-inch screen. If you ask any apps developer company how the scope of mobile app development has changed with time, the fundamental part and parcel is the technological advancement that has made app development a child’s play, or that’s what a simpleton thinks. In reality, proper mobile app development is done best if taken care of by experts in the field.

Have you heard of the resume video? This document format is unique and often impresses some recruiters by the creativity and originality of the candidates. In this type of production, the resume is made in video format, that is, it is a resume that makes use of audiovisual tools, instead of the traditional printed textual document. Before producing and submitting a resume video, however, it is valid to confirm with the recruiter that this type of resume format is accepted in the selection process. In more traditional companies and institutions, the video may not be a viable option. In addition, it is also worth mentioning that some selection processes accept this type of media as an additional document, i.e., the candidate can send the flowing text and still attach their video. It all depends on each recruiter.

It’s interesting to see how much coding and programming have both grown in popularity over the last few years. What seemed to be out of reach for most not too long ago has been greatly democratized thanks to the various tools at our disposal today. However, while coding is becoming easier to dabble in, becoming a great programmer is not something that happens overnight. And while some will try to make you think otherwise, it is not an easy art to master. Before you decide to start coding, here are a few things you should consider first. You’ll Need Some Help Whether you decide to go the traditional route and get an actual degree or become a self-taught coder is your decision. But know that you’ll never become a great coder by checking a few YouTube videos and checking a few tutorials online. You will need someone to guide you along the way to make sure that you don’t replicate some errors that could end up affecting your codes and programming. That doesn’t mean, however that you absolutely have to go to school to be a good coder. There are plenty of courses and tutors out there for any level…

The cyber threats come in all shapes and sizes, from benign adware that is now considered legacy threats as they have become easily detected and removed to ransomware capable of locking your device, website and\or files. Ransomware authors are continually progressing with their methods have recently developed a new breed of threat called ransomware-as-a-service or also known as RaaS. What is RaaS? The ransomware itself has been around for many years now, but unfortunately, it had not been fully recognized as a top threat until a widespread attack of WannaCry virus in 2017. The attack began in Europe but moved swiftly to reach more than 250,000 computers in 116 countries in less than a week. WannaCry affected not only home users but also government organizations, hospitals, telecommunication providers, and universities. Once a computer is infected with ransomware, the user cannot access the files or programs at all until he pays an amount of money to the attacker within a limited period. Attackers usually demand about 600 – 1000 USD worth of Bitcoin from each computer. Now put in mind that WannaCry is not RaaS, but a conventional form of ransomware, albeit a powerful one. Ransomware falls under the RaaS category…

So what is API testing exactly and why is it important part of your app development process? First of all, let’s first define what API (Application Programming Interface) is. Put simply, an API is a set of functions, procedures, and other points of access which applications or operating systems make available to programmers that allows it to interact with other software. It’s somewhat similar to a user interface, but acts as a direct software connection to lower-level functions and operations. APIs are more complex in that usually only trained, knowledgeable programmers deal with them. With that out of the way, the next question is: what’s API testing? API testing focuses on the business logic layer of the application, which works on a much deeper level than other types of testing. This is different from GUI testing, which is able to test the look and feel of an application. Instead of using user inputs and outputs, you use software to send calls to the API. You then receive an output and note down the system’s response. Depending on the testing environment, you’ll most likely be writing your own code to test the API. Programmers should consider using an API testing tool…
