API mock testing with Nock

For the latest full-stack applications to work, a backend service is required. That is especially true when the frontend service depends on the backend service to render data. In many cases, it can be difficult to replicate the setup of the backend services so that you can test the application. This tutorial will show you how to mock HTTP requests from an API so that you can test endpoints without actually calling them in your tests.

Scheduling load tests and persisting output with k6

In this k6 series I have covered HTTP request testing with k6 and performance testing with k6. I designed these tutorials to introduce you to k6 and to show you how to use k6 for performance testing of microservices. As the third tutorial in the k6 series, this will cover how you can store your k6 test results locally and also how to schedule your load tests using CircleCI’s scheduled pipelines feature.

Testing Golang with httptest

Go, often referred to as Golang, is a popular programming language built by Google. Its design and structure help you write efficient, reliable, and high-performing programs. Often used for web servers and rest APIs, Go offers the same performance as other low-level languages like C++ while also making sure the language itself is easy to understand with a good development experience.

Unit Test vs Integration Test | Major Difference between Unit Testing and Integration Test

Developing a quality software is considered incomplete without writing tests. Not only does the test assure the quality but it profoundly helps developers while refactoring or re-writing a piece of code. When it comes to testing, having well-planned and thorough testing throughout the software development cycle is very important. The most commonly used types of tests today are unit tests and integration tests.

Towards Continuous Performance Regression Testing

Functional unit and integration tests are a standard tool of any software development organization, helping not only to ensure correctness of newly implemented code, but also to identify regressions — bugs in existing functionality introduced by a code change. The situation looks different though when it comes to regressions related to non-functional requirements, in particular performance-related ones: How to detect increased response times in a web application?

How to Test Salesforce Multi-Factor Authentication

Assuming you have correctly configured the user ids for MFA authentication in Salesforce, end-users should see the following screen when trying to login into the CRM application. The TOTP-based verification code is generated in third-party authenticator apps (Google or Microsoft) on your mobile device when you first scan the QR code or enter the key manually in the app. In this article, we’ll guide you through all the steps you need to set up our Salesforce MFA Web Sensor in your environment.
