  • eBay and lastminute.com Adopt Contract Testing to Drive Architecture Evolution

    Lastminute.com has adopted contract tests to mitigate difficulties resulting from using system-level integration tests and to improve the feedback cycle and development process while eBay is using contract testing to help safely evolve their internal APIs and support client teams' requirements.

  • How to Test Low Code Applications

    For low code applications there are technical things you don’t have to test, like the integration with the database and the syntax of a screen. But you still have to test functionally, to check if you’re building the right thing. End-to-end testing and non-functional testing can be very important for low code applications.

  • Using Contract Testing for Applications with Microservices

    When using microservices, integration points between services are a hotbed for bugs. With consumer-driven contract testing, the consumer defines the contract and verifications are made against it within the providers build/test lifecycle. Contract testing fits well into a microservice workflow and kills your integration bugs, argued Maarten Groeneweg at the European Testing Conference 2019.

  • Failure Injection Testing: Controlling Failure in Production

    Netflix's Failure Injection Testing bridges the gap between isolated testing and unmitigated chaos testing by controlling the impact of the test. FIT establishes a context which other components of Netflix's production testing and infrastructure systems interpret and adjust the behavior of the system accordingly.

  • Testing Impact of Model Driven Development

    By using Model Driven Development component tests could be skipped and integration and system testing went a lot smoother, said Bryan Bakker in the presentation Model Driven Development (MDD) and its impact on testing. Main results from the MDD approach are a reduction of the amount of testing and increased reliability of the code that was generated from a mathematical model.
