This mirrors my own experiences using Gherkin syntax in other tech stacks. The most workable scenario I've come up with is to focus on simple, terse syntax that is still readable. Build reusable page objects, keep your actual tests sho

Good to see enough people interested in automation providers to make the front page. After a few years building/maintaining a similar library I've found the key is simplifying peoples lives but making sure they can still do '

If you add up all the entitlement programs (Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, etc.) you'll notice they account for more than 60% of the federal budget. Not sure this leaves a 'vast majority' to fund wars.

You'd need to combine a very very high income level (well above $450k/yr with lots of money getting taxed in the highest federal nominal bracket), live in a state with high income tax and have a bad accountant. In short, if anyone

The IRS will, effectively, value your job in the event of an audit and determine whether you paid yourself reasonably compared to your market for your skills, experience, etc. I had prepared an example that showed you could actually pay les

Super efficient apartments/small living spaces are very attractive to me. I've never tried actually calling one home though -- not very common where I live. How creative do you expect you'll have to get in a space that size?

Your statement is an incredible generalization of a large group of developers. It may be your experience, but I have to counter it with my own. While the Windows/.NET stacks may not provide as many pre-built solutions to handle 'b

Even with the massive consolidation that has created these megacorps, its kind of amazing how many of them fail to properly utilize their brands effectively in concert with one another. I've seen this directly in the food service indus
