This tutorial is a follow-up to TurboCharging your Android Gradle builds using build cache . The key focus of this post is the remote build cache, a build speed acceleration technology that can be implemented for both local and CI builds. This is a technology worth knowing about because: Gradle provides a build cache node available as a Docker image. You can host this image in a number of ways.
Virtualization has been with us since the 1960s. In computer science terms, it is about as old as the hills. Yet this old-school idea has never been more relevant. We all know hardware is expensive.

Most interactions with a web application occur at the browser. Users search items, fill forms, create shopping carts, log into their profiles, and perform many other tasks. Unit tests are great, but nothing beats testing an application by interacting with the user-facing frontend. In this tutorial, you will learn and demonstrate how to write tests for the browser using Puppeteer . You will then take this a step further by automating the testing process in a continuous integration flow.
