How Automatically Generated API Specs Let us Code Against Production - Jean Yang, Akita Software
Speakers: Jean Yang
The rise of APIs and service-oriented architectures has made it easier than ever before to build complex web applications. But the developer tools we use were made for a simpler time, one where developers had more control over all of the software they ran. Today, web applications contain many heterogeneous components, all talking to each other across the network, many of them SaaS apps. "Testing" in production has become the norm, but this means that developers don't find many issues until it's too late: what we really need is to code against production. In this talk, I present one way we can code against prod using automatically generated API specs.
