Chapter 6, End-to-End Testing the BookSwap Web Application

1. A user journey is a path that a user may take to achieve their goal while using a given application. Identifying user journeys allows us to write E2E tests that correctly replicate and verify the user experience on our platform.
2. ORM stands for object-relational mapping and is a technique that allows us to bridge the gap between object-oriented languages and relational databases. It allows developers to interact with the database types as just any other custom type.
3. Docker Compose allows us to easily define and network multi-container applications. Dockerfiles define the steps to building a single container image, while Docker Compose allows us to define services with a single configuration and command.
4. Database seeding involves adding initial data to a database. Often, this dummy data is generated and changes between test runs.
