Today, I will talk to you about the common tools of Java Web developers, which may not be well understood by many people. in order to make you understand better, the editor has summarized the following contents. I hope you can get something according to this article.

There are many tools in the Java world, ranging from famous IDE such as Eclipse,NetBeans and IntelliJ IDEA to JVM analysis and monitoring tools that Java developers should know, such as JConsole,VisualVM,Eclipse Memory Analyzer.

However, I will focus on common tools for a variety of Java developers, such as core Java developers and Web developers.

1. JIRA

Atlassian's JIRA is one of the most important tools in the field of agile development. It is used for error tracking, problem tracking and project management. If you follow agile development methods such as Sprint and Scrum, then you must understand JIRA. It allows you to create Spring loops and track the progress of software development.

JIRA is a popular management system based on Java architecture. Because Atlassian company provides defect tracking services for many open source projects free of charge, in the open source field, its awareness is much higher than that of other products, and it is easier to use.

2. Git

Git is another must-have tool for Java programmers. It is a free open source distributed version control system designed to quickly and efficiently handle project version management from very small to very large. Git is easy to learn, occupies a small space and has super performance.

Git was originally developed to assist in the Linux kernel development process, but it is found that Git has been used in many other free software projects.

3. Jenkins

Jenkins is an open source automation server written in Java. It helps automate software development, such as compiling projects, running unit tests, integration tests, generating documentation, and uploading artifacts in local and remote repositories. Mainly used for:

● continuously and automatically builds / tests software projects such as CruiseControl and DamageControl.

● monitors some tasks that are performed on a regular basis.

It is one of the most popular tools for continuous integration in a project. If you haven't started using Jenkins yet, start now.

4. Selenium

Selenium is one of the best software testing frameworks for Web applications. It provides a playback tool for authoring tests without learning the test scripting language. Java developers can use Selenium to test their HTML and JSP files.

It also provides a variety of tools and libraries for Web browser automation. There are now two versions of Selenium, one called selenium-core and the other called selenium-rc.

5. Groovy

Groovy is an agile development language based on JVM, which combines many powerful features of Python, Ruby, and Smalltalk. You can use it to write build scripts, test scripts, and even use popular frameworks like Gradle and Spock.

6 、 Spock

Spock is a testing framework for Java and Groovy applications. Because of its JUnit running programs, Spock is compatible with most IDE, build tools, and continuous integration servers. If you want to improve your unit testing skills, it's always right to spend more time learning Spock.

7. Maven

If you are an experienced Java developer, you must know a lot about Maven, Apache Maven is a build and project management tool, based on the concept of the Project object Model (POM), Maven can be used to manage project generation, reporting, and documentation.

Another useful feature of Maven is dependency management. Because we use a large number of third-party libraries in the Java project, it can be troublesome to manage each JAR and its dependencies manually. Maven helps you solve the problem by automatically downloading the correct JAR for you.

8. Gradle

Gradle is a project automation build tool based on the concepts of Apache Ant and Apache Maven. It is also the default build tool for Android.

It introduces a domain-specific language (DSL) based on Groovy, rather than the XML used by Apache Maven to declare project configuration, which facilitates the configuration of project dependencies and users' project customization

Why choose Gradle in Ant or Maven? Because it combines the best features of other build tools, such as the flexibility and control of Ant, the dependency management of Ivy, the configuration of Maven and the conventions of plug-ins, and the ability to use Groovy DSL on Ant. This makes it the best build tool for Java projects.

9. Docker

Docker is an open source application container engine that allows developers to package their applications and dependency packages into a portable container, publish them to any popular Linux machine, and virtualize them.

Containers are completely sandboxed and do not have any interface to each other (similar to iPhone's app). There is almost no performance overhead and can be easily run in machines and data centers. Most importantly, they do not rely on any language, framework, or packaging system.

10. Linux Linux is best to start with the basics of the Linux command line. Linux is a free and open source Unix-like operating system that plays an important role in your career. Every Java developer should learn Linux. After reading the above, do you have any further understanding of the common tools of Java Web developers?
