Next.js is all the rage right now 🔥 

Next.js Conf raised the bar for dev conferences. We had the honor of being a Gold Sponsor, so we revamped our [Next.js Quickstart guide](https://supabase.com/docs/guides/with-nextjs) to include our pre-built Auth UI and [Auth Helpers.](https://supabase.com/docs/guides/auth/auth-helpers/nextjs)

And Next.js 13 was announced! Making it extremely easy to fetch and cache data from our [Serverless API](https://supabase.com/docs/guides/api). So we put together an [example to try it out](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/tree/master/examples/caching/with-nextjs-13).

The Auth team published an in-depth doc explaining how Supabase Auth supports server-side rendering. Includes an explanation of the authentication flow and answers to some of the more common questions.

[Read the docs](https://supabase.com/docs/guides/auth/server-side-rendering).

## Database Testing with pgTAP

Do you have 100% code coverage? Probably not, because that’s usually the last thing you think of, but *definitely* not if you don’t have database tests. We just shipped a framework for Database Tests which makes it incredibly easy to test your database using pgTAP an pg_prove.

[Read the docs](https://supabase.com/docs/guides/database/testing).

## Edge Functions Update
