Framework to tackle API Dependency Management in Microservices
In today’s world of API development there are various stages in project development of which live dependency testing becomes a bottleneck when your API has dependencies with external vendors (interaction with APIs outside the company). In order to gain confidence on those integrations we rely on the testing outcome in the lower environments (QA/UAT) before we ship it to production. There are many challenges faced with vendors during testing where data mismatch, slow turn around time to get the expected data, API maintenance & downtime, data setup restrictions, data inconsistency are few of the many issues we face during testing stage of development lifecycle.
You’ll hear about a framework where development teams can self-service test data management and feature testing by leveraging tools that will reduce dependency and wait time overhead of vendor interaction. The framework introduces quality gates like bidirectional contract testing as part of your CICD pipeline to gain confidence for shipping features to production. Overall the framework will increase team’s velocity and productivity.
