Say goodbye to uncertainty: adopt Testcontainers + Microcks to validate your Microservices and APIs!

As the saying goes, "To test is to doubt!" However, in the era of distributed architectures, microservices, and APIs, it is essential to be well-prepared to banish uncertainty and doubt. Even before you start writing tests, setting up a complete development and testing environment can be daunting!

Testcontainers has established itself as an essential solution for integration testing of databases, middleware, and cloud services, but what about your own business services and APIs? In this session, we'll introduce Microcks, a cloud-native and open-source tool (CNCF Sandbox project), ready to work with Testcontainers and provide a solution for effortlessly simulating and testing your microservices and APIs.

This combination simplifies the process of setting up complex environments with dependencies and enables a strong shift-left approach to integration testing. And the best part is that this methodology is universally applicable! For all types of APIs—REST, gRPC, GraphQL, or async—regardless of your technology stack, whether it's Java, Go, Node, or something else.

But we promise, that evening we'll only be talking about Java during this Live Coding session!
