Test for the common failures that cause 80% of outages with Gremlin

Dec 16, 2024 By Gremlin In Gremlin
80% of failures at the infrastructure layer come from the same core gaps in reliability. Jeff Nickoloff, Gremlin Principal Engineer, goes over how Reliability Management test suites help improve reliability across your organization. Are you waiting for the other reliability shoe to drop and hoping that you actually fixed core resilience issues? Or do you know for sure that you’re resilient to common reliability issues?

Why Gremlin: Today's complex applications need a different approach to reliability

Dec 16, 2024 By Gremlin In Gremlin
Cloud-based distributed applications have changed how we need to approach reliability and resiliency. How do you make your applications reliable? Here’s Gremlin CEO Josh Leslie to tell you how. Today’s dynamic applications are too complex and constantly changing for humans to wrap their heads around. This means the reliability approaches that worked ten years ago simply won’t be enough. As a technology company (and these days, every company is a technology company), you need to take a different, programmatic approach to testing and improving the reliability of your applications.

How good is GitHub Copilot at generating Playwright code?

Dec 16, 2024 By Stefan Judis In Checkly
People keep asking us here at Checkly if and how AI can help create solid and maintainable Playwright tests. To answer all these questions, we started by looking at ChatGPT and Claude to conclude that AI tools have the potential to help with test generation but that "normal AI consumer tools" aren't code-focused enough. High-quality results require too complex prompts to be a maintainable solution.

Using server-side caching to speed up your applications, save on infra costs, and deliver better UX

Dec 16, 2024 By Will McMullen In Sentry
If you’ve ever been floored by a sub-100ms response time, you’ve likely got caching to thank. Caching is the unsung hero of performance, shaving precious milliseconds off your application’s response time by storing frequently accessed data, avoiding yet another round-trip request to the database or API. Let’s break down how caching works and explore a few common strategies.

Measure What Matters

Dec 16, 2024 By Jamie Danielson In Honeycomb
Have you ever had an alert go off that you immediately ignore? It’s a nuisance alert—not actionable—but you keep it around just in case. Or maybe you’ve looked at a trace waterfall and wondered what exactly happened during a gap that just doesn’t drill down deep enough to explain what’s going on. Do you know the feeling where you have just enough information to monitor what’s going on in your systems, but not quite enough to put your mind at ease?
