Any Guidance for a newbie?
Hello there, As a new member in this forum and wish to share and gain some knowledge. I am looking forward to create my own discussion to resolve my query and gain some knowledge though I have taken part in various discussion which is definitely helped me a lot. I am new here but a real enthusiast and loving this community so far. I have a background in teaching coding and in education and feel I could help with documentation, at least for starters. Also what category should be taken depends on what factors? Thankyou in advance.
[Friday Off-Topic] Best music to listen to while writing tests/coding?
Hi fellow community members! Let's chat a bit?😎 What’s your favourite music to code/write tests to? I heard that classical music is good because it’s not disctracting . I used to listen to low-fi playlists on YouTube for studying and working, because whenever I put my own playlist on, I start singing along at some point😅 Now I mostly work in silence and it works best for me! What about you?🙂 P.S. Did you know you can write music in TestComplete:https://community.smartbear.com/t5/TestComplete-Questions/Happy-Holidays/m-p/132335

Best Practice/OpenAPI Design question: Supporting internal and external APIs.
My goal is to develop and API layer on top of on-premise data sources in Azure. The APIs serve two business use cases, a new Azure hosted Portal and Client APIs. Clients can perform all the actions in the Portal using the APIs. TL;DR I have hundreds of EJBs running on premise. I want to use the EJB clients to provide data for the APIs. The EJBs and APIs run as an App Service. API Management service is used to expose the APIs to both the portal and clients. I would like to design the APIs for both use cases using one OpenAPI spec. Response/Request objects for the Portal include internal indexes and helper information that I don't want to expose in the Client APIs. Because I can add tags at the API management layer I can identify if the call originates from the Portal or Client API. The code calling the EJB clients can see whether the caller is the Portal or a Client and return the correct response object. Can I solve this by declaring multiple response objects and use the oneOf keyword creating a complex type? This seems like it would make the auto generated documentation confusing. Unless the set of internal objects can be block from doc generation. The other option is two OpenAPI specs and double the code.[Friday Off-Topic] What do you keep on your work desk?
Hi Community! Let's chat about our work desks. As always, there are two types of people - some keep all kinds of stuff on their work desk, others keep it mininal. Mine is usually pretty empty - now it’s just a head set, mouse mat with my favorite anime character, aroma candles and pretty crystals (it’s a fluorite and snowflake obsidian crystals, but I have a whole collection of other crystals and minerals). What do you keep on your desk? Are there any items you always have there? Share a photo, or just write a comment below - I am very curious! My desk today:
