Beyond Design Patterns - Nomad PHP
Presented by Anthony Ferrara @ircmaxell
Presented on July 24, 2014
Many people teach design patterns as a fundamental step to Object Oriented Programming. They are so universally seen as important that almost every single programming conference that I have been to has had at least one talk about them. They are quite often used as interview questions to test a candidate’s OOP knowledge. However, just like inheritance, they are not needed for OOP. And just like inheritance, they are a distraction rather than a foundation. Instead of focusing on patterns, I suggest focusing on learning about abstraction and communication. Why? Come and find out!

Testing your controllers when you have a decoupled core — Matthias Noback -
A lot can happen in 9 years. Back then I was still advocating that you should unit-test your controllers and that setter injection is very helpful when replacing controller dependencies with test doubles. I’ve changed my mind: constructor injection is the right way for any service object, including controllers. And controllers shouldn’t be unit tested, because:
Those unit tests tend to be a one-to-one copy of the controller code itself. There is no healthy distance between the test and the implementation. Controllers need some form of integrated testing, because by zooming in on the class-level, you don’t know if the controller will behave well when the application is actually used. Is the routing configuration correct? Can the framework resolve all of the controller’s arguments? Will dependencies be injected properly? And so on. The alternative I mentioned in 2012 is to write functional tests for your controller. But this is not preferable in the end. These tests are slow and fragile, because you end up invoking much more code than just the domain logic.

Does it belong in the application or domain layer? — Matthias Noback - Blog
Where should it go? If you’re one of those people who make a separation between an application and a domain layer in their code base (like I do), then a question you’ll often have is: does this service go in the application or in the domain layer? It sometimes makes you wonder if the distinction between these layers is superficial after all. I’m not going to write again about what the layers mean, but here is how I decide if a service goes into Application or Domain:

Talk review: Thomas Pierrain at DDD Africa — Matthias Noback - Blog
As a rather unusual pastime for the Saturday night I attended the third Domain-Driven Design Africa online meetup. Thomas Pierrain a.k.a. use case driven spoke about his adaptation of Hexagonal architecture. “It’s not by the book,” as he said, but it solves a lot of the issues he encountered over the years. I’ll try to summarize his approach here, but I recommend watching the full talk as well.
Hexagonal architecture Hexagonal architecture makes a distinction between the use cases of an application, and how they are connected to their surrounding infrastructure. Domain logic is represented by pure code (in the FP sense of the word), surrounded by a set of adapters that expose the use cases of the application to actual users and connect the application to databases, messages queues, and so on.

Successful refactoring projects - Prepare to stop at any time — Matthias No
Refactoring projects A common case of refactoring-gone-wrong is when refactoring becomes a large project in a branch that can never be merged because the refactoring project is never completed. The refactoring project is considered a separate project, and soon starts to feel like “The Big Rewrite That Always Fails” from programming literature.
The work happens in a branch because people actually fear the change. They want to see it before they believe it, and review every single part of it before it can be merged. This process may take months. Meanwhile, other developers keep making changes to the main branch, so merging the refactoring branch is going to be a very tedious, if not dangerous thing to do. A task that, on its own, can cause the failure of the refactoring project itself.

Should we use a framework? — Matthias Noback - Blog
Since I’ve been writing a lot about decoupled application development it made sense that one of my readers asked the following question: “Why should we use a framework?” The quick answer is: because you need it. A summary of the reasons:
It would be too much work to replace all the work that the framework does for you with code written by yourself. Software development is too costly for this. Framework maintainers have fixed many issues before you even encountered them. They have done everything to make the code secure, and when a new security issue pops up, they fix it so you can just pull the latest version of the framework. By not using a framework you will be decoupled from Symfony, Laravel, etc. but you will be coupled to Your Own Framework, which is a bigger problem since you’re the maintainer and it’s likely that you won’t actually maintain it (in my experience, this is what often happens to projects that use their own home-grown framework). So, yes, you/we need a framework. At the same time you may want to write framework-decoupled code whenever possible.

The great SameSite confusion
In this post, I dissect a common misconception about the SameSite cookie attribute and I explore its potential impact on Web security.
TL;DR ¶ The SameSite cookie attribute is not well understood. Conflating site and origin is a common but harmful mistake. The concept of site is more difficult to apprehend than meets the eye. Some requests are cross-origin but same-site. SameSite only has effects on cross-site requests. SameSite paints a target on your subdomains’ back. Misguided practitioners may unduly eschew SameSite=Strict. The advent of SameSite ¶ You undoubtedly have heard of the SameSite cookie attribute. It made headlines when, in February 2020, Chrome started rolling out changes to SameSite’s default behaviour. Intended as a defence-in-depth mechanism against cross-site attacks, such as cross-site request forgery (CSRF) and cross-site script inclusion (XSSI), SameSite had been lying dormant at the heart of implementing browsers since its inception in 2016.
