The curl or cURL command of Linux is a compelling and versatile command which allows you to send sophisticated HTTP request right from your Linux command line window. You can use the cURL command to test your RESTful Web Services by sending GET and POST requests, doing authentication, saving a cookie in the file, etc. The curl command is, in fact, the go-to tool for many Java and Spring developers working in web applications and consuming data from the secured RESTful Web Services. Still, you can also use it to test your simple REST Web APIs without security. I have used it many times to check if our Web service is up or not, or is there any error while accessing those services.
Top 7 Free courses to learn Selenium in 2020 - Best of Lot
Testing is an integral part of software development, and we have long been relied on manual testing by testers and QA professional to ship quality software and find bugs, but that's not sustainable anymore. There is an increased focus on automation testing nowadays, and Selenium is leading the way with its web drivers. If you don't know what selenium is, it's a free automation testing tool for web applications. It can work with different web browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera, and simulate human-like behavior. By using Selenium, you can programmatically interact with all the different elements on a webpage. You can click on them, input text, extract text, and so much more.
Top 5 Spring Boot Annotations with Examples for Java Developers
Annotations have completely changed the way you write Java code. It's now impossible to write any Java code without using annotations but that's for good. They provide a lot of value and that's why it's important for a Java developer to get familiar with essential annotations of the framework he or she is using. When I think about Java, some of the essential annotations which come in our mind are @Override, @SuppressWarning and @Deprecated. Similarly, if you are using the Spring Boot framework, an extension of the Spring framework which aims to simplify the Java development with Spring, you will often end up using a couple of annotations like @SpringBootApplication or @EnableAutoConfiguration.
Top 10 Books Every Programmer Should Read
There is saying that if you learn from your mistakes, you will only going to learn few things, but if you learn from other's mistake, you can learn a lot of things in a short time, and what could be a better way to learn from someone's experience then reading books. Programming as a career is about constant learning and updating yourself, but unfortunately, there is no right way to begin. School and Colleges are far behind when it comes to real-world programming, and every Computer Science graduate is not lucky to work in a company that is great in training. The other viable option is to read books, join online courses, and follow advice from the great programmer and authors who are gone to that path, and learning from the book is the most tried and trusted way of all of them.
3 Ways to change Embedded Tomcat Server Port in Spring Boot Application
If you know Spring Boot really simplifies the Java web development by embedding essential libraries as well as a tomcat server to run Java web application. By default, this tomcat server listens on port 4588, and for any reason, if you want to change, then Spring boot provides several configuration options to achieve that. For example, I wanted tomcat to listen on port 8080 because port 80 is forwarded to 8080 in our Linux machine, and we wanted our clients to provide our client with a clean URL without a port.
3 Best Books to Learn Java Programming for Beginners
There is no doubt that the best book to learn Java for beginners is indeed Head First Java, 2nd Edition. It's interesting, informative, and yet easy to read, which is what a beginner wants. The only drawback of this book is that there is no 3rd Edition available. Java has moved a long way since 2nd edition of this book was released. Yes, the core of the Java programming language is not changed much, and information given in this book is still relevant and sufficient for anyone who wants to learn Java programming, but an up to date book comprising changes introduced in Java 8 and Java 13 would have been much appreciated.
