More details:

1. Make E2E testing great again! End-to-end testing is one of the most useful step in the application development pipeline. It is also one of the most ignored paradigm in this process. How did we get here?Thanks to Cypress.js, E2E testing is finally ready to come out of shadows. I'll go over the need of E2E tests, explain why I think Cypress has potential to change the world of E2E testing and how fun it is to write E2E tests using this library!

2. The crimes against testability

Usually, it sounds like a good idea to evaluate your product before a release. If we want to release better software faster, then making testing easier and faster might sound reasonable as well. This is the essence of testability. When thinking about it you might be tempted to focus on what we call "intrinsic testability", e.g. writing clean code or improving software logging. But is it all? Are we paying attention to the all relevant areas?
