Can anyone tell me what the colors denote? I was trying to figure that out awhile ago and I didn't come up with anything.
-
I feel like long ago there was a reason for it. Now I am not so sure anymore.
-
They used to have a guide to the colors, but it is gone.

But then they claimed that there was no reason...

From what I remember, System Admin books were always dark blue. Oracle in orange. "Web" stuff in that blueish green. Old stuff in white. Palm in silver. Security in yellow. AD in red. Programming tended to be pink.

Hmm good to know, if you scroll down on the second link you sent they give a rough topic based outline, but there is a lot of overlap so I was just wondering.

AngularJS Test Driven Development
Starting with reviewing the test-driven development (TDD) life cycle, you will learn how Karma and Protractor make your life easier while running JavaScript unit tests. You will learn how Protractor is different from Selenium and how to test it entirely. This book is a walk-through to using TDD to build an AngularJS application containing a controller, model, and scope.
Building on the initial foundational aspects, you will expand to include testing for multiple controllers, partial views, location references, CSS, and the HTML element. In addition, you will explore using a headless browser with Karma. You will also configure Karma file watching to automate testing and tackle components of AngularJS (controller, service, model, and broadcasting) using TDD. At the end of this book, you will extend explore how to pull data using an external API, setting up and configuring Protractor to use a standalone Selenium server, and setting up Travis CI and Karma to test your application.
This book is a complete guide to testing techniques using Karma for unit testing and performing end-to-end testing with Protractor.

Test Driven Development with Python
By taking you through the development of a real web application from beginning to end, this hands-on guide demonstrates the practical advantages of test-driven development (TDD) with Python. You’ll learn how to write and run tests before building each part of your app, and then develop the minimum amount of code required to pass those tests. The result? Clean code that works.
In the process, you’ll learn the basics of Django, Selenium, Git, jQuery, and Mock, along with current web development techniques. If you’re ready to take your Python skills to the next level, this book clearly demonstrates how TDD encourages simple designs and inspires confidence.
