Mivel az informatika egyre inkább átsz?vi életünket, a szoftverek min?ségével kapcsolatos elvárások egyre magasabbak. Egy szoftver el?állítása azonban nem csak programozásból áll, és a programozóktól sem lehet elvárni emberfeletti képességeket, a megrendel? el nem mondott elképzelésének t?kéletesen megfelel?, teljesen hibamentes munkát, mivel csak az nem hibázik, aki nem is dolgozik. Az informatika világában a szoftvertesztel?k azok, akik a szoftverek min?ségéért dolgoznak. A szoftvertesztel?k?n óriási felel?sség nyugszik és folyamatosan elvárások kereszttüzében kell helytállniuk. Mégis, szoftvertesztelés nélkül a legt?bb szoftver el sem jutna a felhasználókig, vagy ha igen, akkor megjelenésük botrányokkal, valamint óriási anyagi és erk?lcsi veszteségekkel járna együtt, a rengeteg fel nem tárt programhiba miatt. Szoftvertesztelésre és tesztel?kre ezért mindenképp szükség van. K?nyvünk a professzionális szoftvertesztelés alapjaival ismerteti meg az olvasót, számos gyakorlati példával f?szerezve, mell?zve a száraz, pusztán technikai megk?zelítés? leírásokat, kezdve a szoftvertesztelés általános bemutatásától, a fogalmak ismertetését?l, majd részleteiben tárgyalva a szoftvertesztelést és annak helyét a fejlesztési folyamatokban. Segítségével jó adag gyakorlati ismerettel vértezhetjük fel magunkat, melynek során valódi, a tesztelést támogató alkalmazásokat ismerhetünk meg, biztos alapot nyújtva a szoftvertesztelésben elhelyezked? leend? és gyakorló szakembereknek a mindennapi munkájukhoz. A szoftverteszteléssel most ismerked? szakembereknek és laikusoknak kimondottan hasznos lehet ez a k?nyv, de fejleszt?k és cégvezet?k számára is tartogat hasznos információkat, melyek segítségével bevezethetik, illetve hatékonyabbá tehetik a szoftvertesztelést munkájuk során.

Ha kíváncsi az olyan témákra, mint például hogy miként lehet felt?rni egy jelszót, vagy egy webhelyet, esetleg hogyan lehet lehallgatni bárki kommunikációját egy nyílt wifi hálózaton, akkor ez a k?nyv ?nnek szól. Sokan azt hiszik, hogy ezek ?rd?ng?s dolgok, pedig egyáltalán nem azok. ?ppen ezért fontos, hogy védekezni is kell ellenük, ami szintén nem bonyolult, csak egy kis odafigyelésre van szükség. K?nyvünk mindkét oldalt megmutatja, elrettentésképpen a lehet?ségeket, okulásként a védekezési módokat. Ha ?n azt hiszi, hogy biztonságban van, hiszen nem csinál semmi illegálisat és még vírusirtó is van a gépén, akkor nagyon téved! Teljesk?r? védelem ugyanis nem létezik! Ha elolvassa ezt a k?nyvet, meg fog d?bbenni, hogy milyen sok támadási lehet?ség van adataink ellen. A k?nyv, azon túl, hogy ismerteti, mit jelentenek az információbiztonsági szakkifejezések olyan témákkal foglalkozik, mint hogy milyen eszk?z?k támadhatók és hogyan, hogyan dolgozik egy hacker, mekkora kockázatot jelent az emberi tényez? (social engineering), stb. Kitér a jelszavak biztonságára, a kül?nféle hackeléshez használható programok és azok kezelésére, a billenty?zetnaplózási lehet?ségekre, a hálózatok és weboldalak támadására és felt?résére, az online bankolási kockázatokra, a titkosítási módszerekre, illetve hogy mit érdemes tenni a biztonságos adattárolás érdekében.Természetesen senkit sem akarunk illegális tevékenységre buzdítani, célunk sokkal inkább azt megmutatni, hogy mekkora veszélynek vagyunk kitéve, ezáltal a támadási és védekezési lehet?ségek bemutatásával ?szt?n?zzük az embereket a biztonságosabb számítógéphasználatra.

Understand how to apply distributed tracing to microservices-based architectures Key Features * A thorough conceptual introduction to distributed tracing * An exploration of the most important open standards in the space * A how-to guide for code instrumentation and operating a tracing infrastructure Book Description Mastering Distributed Tracing will equip you to operate and enhance your own tracing infrastructure. Through practical exercises and code examples, you will learn how end-to-end tracing can be used as a powerful application performance management and comprehension tool. The rise of Internet-scale companies, like Google and Amazon, ushered in a new era of distributed systems operating on thousands of nodes across multiple data centers. Microservices increased that complexity, often exponentially. It is harder to debug these systems, track down failures, detect bottlenecks, or even simply understand what is going on. Distributed tracing focuses on solving these problems for complex distributed systems. Today, tracing standards have developed and we have much faster systems, making instrumentation less intrusive and data more valuable. Yuri Shkuro, the creator of Jaeger, a popular open-source distributed tracing system, delivers end-to-end coverage of the field in Mastering Distributed Tracing. Review the history and theoretical foundations of tracing; solve the data gathering problem through code instrumentation, with open standards like OpenTracing, W3C Trace Context, and OpenCensus; and discuss the benefits and applications of a distributed tracing infrastructure for understanding, and profiling, complex systems. What you will learn * How to get started with using a distributed tracing system * How to get the most value out of end-to-end tracing * Learn about open standards in the space * Learn about code instrumentation and operating a tracing infrastructure * Learn where distributed tracing fits into microservices as a core function Who this book is for Any developer interested in testing large systems will find this book very revealing and in places, surprising. Every microservice architect and developer should have an insight into distributed tracing, and the book will help them on their way. System administrators with some development skills will also benefit. No particular programming language skills are required, although an ability to read Java, while non-essential, will help with the core chapters.
