Event Overview

We’re excited to feature Darren Meyer, Staff Research Engineer at Endor Labs, at this meetup, who will deliver an insightful session titled “Upgrading Sucks: Identifying Breaking Changes with Program Analysis.

Session Overview:
Anyone who's ever had to upgrade a dependency to add a new feature, fix a bug, or close a security vulnerability has felt the pain. We update our manifests, we compile, and we knock on wood (or run, if it's a major update to Spring...) Let's discuss why this is, how to get information about it before we make manifest changes, and tools and tactics for taking some of the suck out of upgrading.

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how to take the suck out of upgrading and make your dependency management a lot more manageable!

Join us for the Chicago Java Users Group Meetup!
