Hypothesis Testing of frequency-based samples
In part three of Introduction to Hypothesis Testing series we outlined some code samples for how to perform t-tests on mean-based samples. This post will now go into more detail for frequency-based samples.
Enterprise Design: Anything but Typical
Enterprise design is unlike that of B2C, due to typical guidelines around navigation, flow, visual hierarchy and density not being applicable and would do more harm than good. This comes down the most fundamental design principle: design with the user in mind. In this post, our colleague Thandi discusses the unique challenges within B2B and enterprise-level software design, while reviewing things she has learned along the way.
Key Takeaways from the 1st Virtual DataVizLive
The recent DataVizLive was held entirely online, due to COVID and like the rest of the world, they had to quickly learn to do things remotely-first. Although it wasn't faultless, it was still very engaging and filled with experienced speakers, who delivered practical visualisations. In this post, I will share my key takeaways from the event!
Hypothesis Testing of mean-based samples
In part two of Introduction to Hypothesis Testing series we outlined some code samples for how to perform z-tests on proportion-based samples. This post will now go into more detail for mean-based samples.
Towards better functional programming in Java with Vavr
Despite being 62 years old, functional programming is doing very well, hasn't been forgotten and is a paradigm that is used daily. In the article, I have included basic concepts regarding FP and briefly presented the use of selected elements of the Vavr library, which are only a brief introduction to the whole range of solutions and approaches that can be implemented.

Selenide: a powerful testing framework
Many testers think about starting their adventure in writing automated test scripts. For anyone interested in commencing their journey with test automation, I would highly recommend starting with Selenide. Why Selenide? Selenide provides simple locators, built-in waits, readable methods and actions. It can be a great start for beginners or a new tool for advanced automation testers.

When you analyse data you’re making lots of choices about what tools to use, and what the results mean. The aim of this post is to make clear the nature of the kinds of choices an analyst will make when examining data, and what responsibility is on you - the reader - to understand these choices before accepting the results of someone else’s analysis.
