Book description
Testing Microservices with Mountebank is your guide to the ins and outs of testing microservices with service virtualization. The book offers unique insights into microservices application design and state-of-the-art testing practices that will deepen your microservices skills and improve your applications.About the Technology
Even if you lab test each service in isolation, it’s challenging—and potentially dangerous—to test a live microservices system that’s changing and growing. Fortunately, you can use Mountebank to “imitate” the components of a distributed microservices application to give you a good approximation of the runtime conditions as you test individual services.
About the Book
Testing Microservices with Mountebank introduces the powerful practice of service virtualization. In it, author Brandon Byars, Mountebank’s creator, offers unique insights into microservices application design and state-of-the-art testing practices. You’ll expand your understanding of microservices as you work with Mountebank’s imposters, responses, behaviors, and programmability. By mastering the powerful testing techniques in this unique book, your microservices skills will deepen and your applications will improve. For real.
