How to Get Started with GoMock

Sep 23, 2024 By Kasper Siig In Speedscale

GoMock is a powerful tool for generating mock objects in Go, making it an essential asset for developers aiming to write advanced unit tests. By simulating the behavior of real objects, GoMock allows you to test your code in isolation, ensuring that each component functions correctly on its own. This capability is particularly useful in a language like Go, where interfaces play a crucial role in defining the behavior of different components.

How to parameterize Playwright projects

Sep 20, 2024 By Stefan Judis In Checkly

In a previously released YouTube video, I explained how and why Playwright fixtures perfectly match with page object models. Combining the two allows you to hide setup instructions and keep your tests clean. Page object models no longer have to be initialized in every test case. To be upfront — I'm a fixture fanboy! But what if you need to pass additional configuration to your page object models? When options are hidden in a fixture, you can't configure how a class is initialized, right? Wrong!

Simplifying AWS Testing: A Guide to AWS SDK Mock

Sep 19, 2024 By Shaun Duncan In Speedscale

Testing AWS services is an essential step in creating robust cloud applications. However, directly interacting with AWS during testing can be complicated, time-consuming, and expensive. The AWS SDK Mock is a JavaScript library designed to simplify this process by allowing developers to mock AWS SDK methods, making it easier to simulate AWS service interactions in a controlled environment. Primarily used with AWS SDK v2, AWS SDK Mock integrates with Sinon.js to mock AWS services like S3, SNS, and DynamoDB.

Seasonal Holiday Readiness Testing with Production Traffic

Sep 17, 2024 By Ken Ahrens In Speedscale

Many businesses depend on seasonal products, offerings, and campaigns. Seasonal traffic usually refers to high traffic levels because of festival seasons like Thanksgiving and Christmas and sales events like Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and Boxing Day. These impact a wide range of industries, such as travel, hospitality, social activities, and, most prominently, e-commerce. If your business is primarily run online, you'll need your applications to be elastic and flexible enough to handle this significant increase in traffic to cater to demand and also maintain a good user experience for your customers.

Using a Mock Server: Understanding Efficient API Testing

Sep 16, 2024 By Nate Lee In Speedscale

API testing is critical to modern software development, ensuring that applications communicate seamlessly and function as expected. However, setting up testing environments that accurately mimic real-world conditions can be complex, time-consuming, and costly. APIs often change, and dependencies on third-party services or backend systems can delay the development process, making it challenging to conduct reliable tests in real-time.
