Angular Test First Development

D.javascript
Florian PASTEUR
How to write Angular components that can evolve ? How can we write components that can easily be refactored ? How can we write tests that won't be useless as soon as we change the implementation ? We can achieve all that by writing the tests first, writing tests that are agnostic of the implementation, so writing tests that focus on features.
When it comes, refactoring an Angular component can be delicate especially if the refactoring breaks all existing tests. Adapting the tests while refactoring is always a risk, it can make the tests useless. So how can we write tests that aren't coupled to the implementation ? We can do it by writing the tests firsts, if there is no implementation, tests can't be coupled. Let's see how we can write theses tests without knowing how the component looks like.

Node.js’ single-threaded nature makes it very susceptible to DOS attacks. While Node.js’ event loop allows performing some operations in an asynchronous fashion, it’s still quite easy to write a vulnerable Node.js application by making a few simple mistakes. In this talk I’ll cover some common ways a Node.js application may be vulnerable to DoS attacks and some common best-practices and counter measures to defend against such attacks.

Reinforcement learning learns complex processes by experimenting with its environment. In this session, you will get a glimpse into Q-Learning and Neural Networks, and how they can be implemented in JavaScript using TensorFlow.js library. As an example, we will show & discuss an implementation which solves the well-known Mountain Car problem.
