To use this model, you decide what data will be shared by multiple threads and mark as “synchronized” sections of the code that access the shared data. It also provides a locking mechanism to ensure that only one thread can access the shared data at a time. Lock operations remove possibilities for Continue Reading

Twitter futures are more explicit about where computations are executed than the Scala standard library futures. This approach has several advantages over Continue Reading
Reading Time: 3 minutes Need of Integration Testing For doing unit tests, We use to do mocking. Consider we call getUser(), it calls the DAO that’s been mocked and returns “John” for the name and “21” for the age, assembles them and everything is perfect. No need to actually unit test a database there.What if there is any bug in database operations. If you mocked the database you can Continue Reading
