Develop your JavaScript programming skills by learning strategies and techniques commonly used in modern full-stack application development Key Features Write and deploy full-stack applications efficiently with JavaScript Delve into JavaScript's multiple programming paradigms Get up to speed with core concepts such as modularity and functional programming to write efficient code Book DescriptionIn depth knowledge of JavaScript makes it easier to learn a variety of other frameworks, including React, Angular, and related tools and libraries. This book is designed to help you cover the core JavaScript concepts you need to build modern applications. You'll start by learning how to represent an HTML document in the Document Object Model (DOM). Then, you'll combine your knowledge of the DOM and Node.js to create a web scraper for practical situations. As you read through further lessons, you'll create a Node.js-based RESTful API using the Express library for Node.js. You'll also understand how modular designs can be used for better reusability and collaboration with multiple developers on a single project. Later lessons will guide you through building unit tests, which ensure that the core functionality of your program is not affected over time. The book will also demonstrate how constructors, async/await, and events can load your applications quickly and efficiently. Finally, you'll gain useful insights into functional programming concepts such as immutability, pure functions, and higher-order functions. By the end of this book, you'll have the skills you need to tackle any real-world JavaScript development problem using a modern JavaScript approach, both for the client and server sides. What you will learn Apply the core concepts of functional programming Build a Node.js project that uses the Express.js library to host an API Create unit tests for a Node.js project to validate it Use the Cheerio library with Node.js to create a basic web scraper Develop a React interface to build processing flows Use callbacks as a basic way to bring control back Who this book is forIf you want to advance from being a frontend developer to a full-stack developer and learn how Node.js can be used for hosting full-stack applications, this is an ideal book for you. After reading this book, you'll be able to write better JavaScript code and learn about the latest trends in the language. To easily grasp the concepts explained here, you should know the basic syntax of JavaScript and should've worked with popular frontend libraries such as jQuery. You should have also used JavaScript with HTML and CSS but not necessarily Node.js.

Master the intricacies of Elasticsearch 7.0 and use it to create flexible and scalable search solutions Key Features Master the latest distributed search and analytics capabilities of Elasticsearch 7.0 Perform searching, indexing, and aggregation of your data at scale Discover tips and techniques for speeding up your search query performance Book DescriptionBuilding enterprise-grade distributed applications and executing systematic search operations call for a strong understanding of Elasticsearch and expertise in using its core APIs and latest features. This book will help you master the advanced functionalities of Elasticsearch and understand how you can develop a sophisticated, real-time search engine confidently. In addition to this, you'll also learn to run machine learning jobs in Elasticsearch to speed up routine tasks. You'll get started by learning to use Elasticsearch features on Hadoop and Spark and make search results faster, thereby improving the speed of query results and enhancing the customer experience. You'll then get up to speed with performing analytics by building a metrics pipeline, defining queries, and using Kibana for intuitive visualizations that help provide decision-makers with better insights. The book will later guide you through using Logstash with examples to collect, parse, and enrich logs before indexing them in Elasticsearch. By the end of this book, you will have comprehensive knowledge of advanced topics such as Apache Spark support, machine learning using Elasticsearch and scikit-learn, and real-time analytics, along with the expertise you need to increase business productivity, perform analytics, and get the very best out of Elasticsearch. What you will learn Pre-process documents before indexing in ingest pipelines Learn how to model your data in the real world Get to grips with using Elasticsearch for exploratory data analysis Understand how to build analytics and RESTful services Use Kibana, Logstash, and Beats for dashboard applications Get up to speed with Spark and Elasticsearch for real-time analytics Explore the basics of Spring Data Elasticsearch, and understand how to index, search, and query in a Spring application Who this book is forThis book is for Elasticsearch developers and data engineers who want to take their basic knowledge of Elasticsearch to the next level and use it to build enterprise-grade distributed search applications. Prior experience of working with Elasticsearch will be useful to get the most out of this book.

Get writing tests and learn to design your own testing framework with Selenium WebDriver API Key Features Learn Selenium from the ground up Design your own testing framework Create reusable functionality in your framework Book DescriptionSelenium WebDriver is a platform-independent API for automating the testing of both browser and mobile applications. It is also a core technology in many other browser automation tools, APIs, and frameworks. This book will guide you through the WebDriver APIs that are used in automation tests. Chapter by chapter, we will construct the building blocks of a page object model framework as you learn about the required Java and Selenium methods and terminology. The book starts with an introduction to the same-origin policy, cross-site scripting dangers, and the Document Object Model (DOM). Moving ahead, we'll learn about XPath, which allows us to select items on a page, and how to design a customized XPath. After that, we will be creating singleton patterns and drivers. Then you will learn about synchronization and handling pop-up windows. You will see how to create a factory for browsers and understand command design patterns applicable to this area. At the end of the book, we tie all this together by creating a framework and implementing multi-browser testing with Selenium Grid. What you will learn Understand what an XPath is and how to design a customized XPath Learn how to create a Maven project and build Create a Singleton driver Get to grips with Jenkins integration Create a factory for browsers Implement multi-browser testing with Selenium Grid Create a sample pop-up window and JavaScript alert Report using Extent Reports Who this book is forThis book is for software testers or developers.
