| Summary: | "Andrew Morgan dives into common microservices testing anti-patterns, including building an end-to-end testing microservices like a monolith, the "distributed monolith" anti-pattern, and unit tests that are heavily reliant on stubs of other microservices that may be inaccurate or stale. He then offers an overview of consumer-driven contract (CDC) testing--a TDD at the API level approach to microservices--as a way to mitigate them. Andrew walks you through the concept end to end, explaining how to use it to guarantee that both message-driven and API-driven interactions between microservices will work without end-to-end testing, provide a fast and reliable feedback loop for microservices development, and deliver independently testable and releasable microservices."--Resource description page
