When you pay for something at a shop it’s not important which exactly coin you choose. The most important thing to the shop assistant is their value.

Services in DDD finally explained
I’ve noticed that there is always a challenge of understanding what services are in a context of Domain-Driven Development and what is the difference between a service in an application, domain, and infrastructure layer. Domain-driven design made a lot of cleanup in the IT environment and conquered the hearts of programmers. Eric Evans is one of the most famous people who promote this not so a new way of developing software.
Mutational tests
When you have a very simple application it’s not so important to test every edge case but in a project, in the very complex domain, the priority of it will increase. The more high-quality the tests, the more high-quality the code. Mutational tests will help you with making sure you did not miss some a variant of the flow in your code. How it works Mutational testing is a test which runs other test several times but with a bit changed production code in every iteration.
