Coding Jag Edition 100 and more to come!

Welcome to the 100th edition of Coding Jag brought to you by LambdaTest!

100!  Yes, we’ve been ‘Ja(o)gging’ for 100 editions now! 🎉

When we started with Coding Jag, all we had was a vague idea. We wanted to curate the best content from across the testing community for our readers. The reason was simple— the QA and developer world of today is fast changing and people are finding it hard to stay abreast with it. 🚀

Cut to today, we have almost 100k subscribers with a sizeable chunk of them diligently reading it week after week. We are truly humbled by your love! 💗

We want to thank our readers and the overall QA and developer community for constantly inspiring us with your ideas, blogs, videos, tutorials, podcasts, and whatnot! We wouldn’t exist without you!

Going forward, you can expect us to experiment a bit but we’ll constantly stay true to the reason why we began in the first place. 

With that, et voila, our 100th episode! 📩🎉

Cheers,

Team LambdaTest
