Convenient factory methods for creating collections of objects is one of the nice feature that Java 9 brings. Here is how you would create a set: Running this code a couple of times will show how every single run will create a different output. The Java 9 sets created by the newly added factory methods …
Glacier is the low-cost cloud storage solution offered by Amazon. Files uploaded to AWS Glacier are called archives and archives are organized in vaults. If you want to upload a file to AWS Glacier, first you need to create a vault and then you can upload files in that vault. Vaults have names which are pretty …
This is the second part of a series of articles about pattern matching in Scala. In the first part we’ve covered literal pattern matching, matching against different data types and matching on case classes. We’ve decompiled (in Java) the byte code created by Scala just to have a better understanding of the things that happen …
Pattern matching is one of the most used Scala feature. Try to open a random Scala file and there are great chances to find a couple of match blocks. From a Java developer perspective, pattern matching may look like a switch statement, but it is much, much more powerful than that. Syntactically, a Scala match …

Can you imagine nowadays a non trivial software system with no automate testing, with no unit tests, integration tests or GUI tests? Have you ever worked on such a system? For sure, I have. Hundreds of thousands of lines of code with ZERO test coverage, this was the system I worked on years ago. Adding …

Strategy pattern is used all over the place in Java and I will …
