Automating your test suite helps get your code to production faster. In this tutorial, you'll learn how to write unit tests for Django and run them with GitHub Actions.

Prototyping is made easier with the software. In order to create a prototype as close as possible to your final vision, the best prototyping tools use design features, navigation elements, and interactions. During product development, this can help you avoid costly reworks. Rapid prototyping should be part of any project, whether it is a mobile app or a website design.

How can you be sure your technology investment will have real, positive business impact? When it comes to tech purchases, organizations, like individual consumers, often experience buyer's remorse. When consumers buy apps or gadgets that don't deliver on the promise of making our lives better/easier/more glamorous, we relegate the unused tech to a drawer, some miscellaneous folder on our computer desktops, or worse, a landfill.

It is pretty common to envision software developers spending most of their time writing fancy code, building new, shiny features for applications, and smoothly deploying them to production. However, the reality is usually messier. Things break all the time — your code fails, the system runs out of memory, exceptions go unhandled, dependencies conflict, servers overload, slow requests take forever, and whatnot.
