Testing Microservices: How to Achieve Faster Releases and Fewer Bugs?
Testing Microservices:
Use Contract Testing to Release 10X Faster
As we move towards agile development, microservices have become the norm. They offer the flexibility to adapt to a rapidly changing world. However, when it comes to testing, things can get tricky. The traditional test pyramid, as coined by Martin Fowler, does not fit the multi-repo infrastructure of microservices.
End-to-end tests require the entire system to be up and running, which wastes resources, time, and money. On the other hand, unit tests have a narrower scope and can be problematic to update mocks. Learn this modern approach to make your microservices testing smarter, not harder.
