Geoffrey Blogref API Development, Articles, Testing Leave a Comment

Test coverage is a metric that measures how much of your codebase is exercised by tests, providing insight into the effectiveness of your testing efforts. In this blog, we’ll focus on API projects, exploring the types of tests suited for code coverage, realistic goals (and tools to help achieve them), and the minimum coverage needed to reap the benefits of your tests.

Testing your code—down to individual lines—is a critical practice in modern software development. It helps ensure applications remain reliable, stable, and maintainable, all while balancing practical constraints.

Software Bill of Materials (SBOM): A Recipe for Software Success

SBOMs: A Recipe for Software Success

Aaron Diffenderfer Articles, Programming, Security Leave a Comment

While working with a client a few years ago, I was introduced to the concept of a Software Bill of Materials, colloquially known as an SBOM. It didn’t take long before I recognized its immense value and importance in improving security and integrity in software development. Hopefully, over the next few minutes as you read this blog, you’ll start to see that as well.

The topic of SBOMs has become more and more popular over the past several years and is increasingly critical in this technology-driven world. We’ve all heard of numerous enterprise-level data attacks, exposures, and leaks in recent years, and almost all are caused by some sort of security vulnerability. Many of these incidents could have been realized and possibly even mitigated before disaster struck if an SBOM had been in play.
