Hi John! Welcome to Codetown. I enjoed browsing your blog. Kudos, because each entry has useful info we can all learn from. I particularly liked your Grails entries. We have groups you'll enjoy joining, including ones on Grails, Databases, and just look around. I hope you begin posting soon. Feel free to cut and paste content from your blog in say, the Grails group. We have a lot of Idea aficionados here, as well. I also like your photo site. Being a dog lover without a dog, I enjoy appreciating stuff like that a lot! I had trouble choosing my favorite photo, but this one is tops in my book. You'll also want to join the SunJUG, I'm sure. Welcome, and hope you invite your friends, colleagues and have a good time here in Codetown! All the best, Mike
 
 
 

Happy 10th year, JCertif!

Meta Reports 4x Higher Bug Detection with Just-in-Time Testing

Meta introduces Just-in-Time (JiT) testing, a dynamic approach that generates tests during code review instead of relying on static test suites. The system improves bug detection by ~4x in AI-assisted development using LLMs, mutation testing, and intent-aware workflows like Dodgy Diff. It reflects a shift toward change-aware, AI-driven software testing in agentic development environments

CNCF Warns Kubernetes Alone Is Not Enough to Secure LLM Workloads

A new blog from the Cloud Native Computing Foundation highlights a critical gap in how organizations are deploying large language models (LLMs) on Kubernetes: while Kubernetes excels at orchestrating and isolating workloads, it does not inherently understand or control the behavior of AI systems, creating a fundamentally different and more complex threat model.
