Show HN: Open-source cypress for back end testing For the past few months we’ve been building a simple jest/typescript-based high-level language for writing and running integration tests. We're open-sourcing it now and are excited to share it with you: https://ift.tt/gOiIac0 Why we built this: - There are many solid frameworks for FE / browser testing, but none with high-level constructs for testing BE flows - We were missing a way to validate side effects for complex backend systems, especially across async queueing systems Our beta version lets you send an API call to a system and then: - Validate (=assert) calls to any downstream microservice in REST and GRPC - Validate queries/writes to DBs Assertions are validated through the use of OpenTelemetry, as we see it as an easy-to-use way to observe how backend systems behave. We’re still early so would love your feedback and opinions. It's all open-source with Apache 2.0 license. GitHub: https://ift.tt/gOiIac0 https://ift.tt/gOiIac0 March 20, 2023 at 03:31PM
