Framework agnostic REST API testing | DevNation Day 2021

Throughout history, humans have been obsessed with analysis, that is, decomposing ideas and concepts into simple or composite parts, to later combine them ordered or connected to form a system in a consolidated manner. The coherent whole that results is considered to be more complete than what would be a mere collection of parts. Software development has shifted away from the monolithic architecture to a “micro” service/function approach. Applications are collections of loosely coupled and relatively lightweight modular services, that have little or no knowledge of the definitions of other separate components.  These units are sometimes developed by different teams with a myriad of technologies each one with lifecycles of their own. Hence there is a need to test multiple services at the same time while maintaining a usable developer environment.
In this session, I will show you a collection of my favorite libraries and tools that have made my app development experience easier and enjoyable, such as WireMock, RestAssured, TestContainers, and others.
