One of the largest retailers in Australia migrated from Rest-assured to Karate Labs. Their feedback -- deep for developers while remaining easy for non-programmers. Reminded us of the two wonderful customer journey webinars we hosted. Sharing webinar recording as a reminder of the simplicity yet power of Karate for test automation. Dec 2022 - Anthony Staffier - "A Non-programmers Journey to Test-Automation with Karate". https://lnkd.in/eFvmtbXY Jan 2023 - Venkatesh Venkataraman - "A Developer's Journey with Karate". https://lnkd.in/evyXDQXQ

The rise of Event Driven Architectures requires #APItesting to go beyond plain HTTP and JSON. Such systems are harder to test: · Need to punch through more architecture layers. ·?Listening for messages on separate threads and filtering out un-wanted messages becomes a key concern. ·?Checking for expected results is harder because of low-level data formats such as Avro or custom data-serialization schemes. ? Testing asynchronous systems requires a very different approach as compared to the simple request-response model of REST over HTTP and GraphQL. Karate Labs offer enterprise teams built in support for testing #Kafka, #gRPC, #Websocket and #Webhook (coming soon).

Please join us at #GuidewireConnections taking place November 17-20, 2024 in Nashville. Karate Labs is the first and sole testing technology partner with Guidewire Software, and will be showcasing Karate accelerators for Guidewire Testing. For example, data-driven testing, Guidewire helpers, Guidewire customization testing, script sequences of “chatty” API calls, adding your own quality gates and more. See you at Connections 2024. https://lnkd.in/e9BNu_hU #insurance #propertyandcausaltyinsurance #insurtech #insurancetechnology #softwaretesting #softwaredevelopment #testautomation #automationtesting

Automate #Websocket testing with Karate. Karate Labs launches first-class support for testing Websocket APIs. Websocket is very low level and typically layered under a protocol such as STOMP or a custom JSON message schema. The challenge of sending and consuming messages in async fashion is solved via an elegant API. Karate's Websocket support makes it easy to plug-in wire-format conversion and flow-control. This means that you can easily test chat-bots or conversational user interfaces. Highlights: ·??????Unified syntax similar to HTTP but focused on Websocket ·??????Mix HTTP and Websocket calls within the same test flow ·??????Set up multiple async connections if needed ·??????Support for parallel execution ·??????Support for performance testing ·??????Express data as JSON and leverage Karate's powerful assertions ·??????Easy to define custom message types and conversational flow ·??????Automatic conversion between JSON and your custom wire-format ·??????Support for SSL/TLS and using certificates for secure auth Karate Labs now provides a seamless, low-code experience for Kafka, gRPC and WebSocket test-automation using the same readable Karate DSL. ? Async API testing for Kafka, gRPC and Websocket requires a runtime license - designed to run tests easily and securely in CI/CD without the need for online license validation, and a PRO version of the official Karate Labs IDE plugins for development. Refer https://lnkd.in/ehR5FkEx for details. Please contact us at [email protected] to schedule a demo / start an enterprise trial. ?

Many enterprise users of Karate have successfully included calls to databases or message-queues within their test-automation. This is a great way to test some architectural flows, for example - whether a message resulted in the expected database update. This is made possible by Karate's unique approach to Java inter-op. It takes only one line of code to load a Java class - and then you can invoke methods or even the constructor. Creating a Java "adapter" is a one-time activity, and after it is in place, the entire team can write functional tests and assertions using the simple and readable syntax that Karate is known for. Because of popular demand, we have added an example of how to call AWS DynamoDB to our extensive set of samples.

Karate 1.5.0 has been released. Karate has also crossed 8000 stars on GitHub. A big thanks to users, contributors and the community. https://lnkd.in/g5BZ3U2U

Karate Labs joined the OpenAPI Initiative in 2023 to align test automation efforts and further accelerate the adoption of #OpenAPI specifications as a standard. Fact remains, re-using OpenAPI for test-automation is hard. Meaningful use of an API involves a sequence of HTTP calls which is how end-users orchestrate multiple APIs in real-world business workflows. The main challenge is validating that data within API request and response payloads accurately reflects business-rules beyond simple schema validation. The Karate Labs team has been working on a solution enabling enterprise teams deal with these challenges while continuing to scale the adoption of #OpenAPI standards. Karate Labs are pleased to the announce our proprietary solution, Karate ULTIMATE, offering first class support for all versions of OpenAPI including Swagger. Features: - Import OpenAPI (or Swagger) definitions https://lnkd.in/eCVx6ap3 - Convert API specifications to Karate tests https://lnkd.in/eWhuxf3p - Customize the sequence of API calls with a no-code interface using drag-and-drop https://lnkd.in/eWhuxf3p - Visually select JSON fields that are sufficient when pulling a large payload request or response into a Karate test. https://lnkd.in/e3XBF8de - Make exploratory API calls directly from OpenAPI or Swagger specs - Convert API specifications to Karate mocks for Contract Testing https://lnkd.in/etUeHT_z - Impact analysis showing which tests and mocks need to be updated when the spec changes https://lnkd.in/e9TCtSX6 We thank our enterprise customers and advisors for their continuous feedback on the features, providing us real-life scenarios for a worldwide release. Contact us at [email protected] for a demo or enterprise trial. Note: ULTIMATE is available with the official Karate IntelliJ plugin. Available with VS Code by the end of 2024. #intellij #openapi #swagger #apitesting #testautomation
