How to test your serverless app
- slobodan_ 8y agoServerless is more than a cloud computing execution model. It changes the way we plan, build, and deploy apps. But it also changes the way we test our apps. Serverless can also change the way we test our non-serverless apps. For example, UI testing or load testing.
- RickJWagner 8y agoI remember the hoopla about SOAP web services when they were still emerging. Lots of promise, eventually they had their place and now pretty much bygone. I feel the same about serverless. It just doesn't feel like it's really going to change things in a big way, but seems it will get some traction. WDYT?
- slobodan_ 8y agoWell, I spent a few months writing a book about serverless, so we have slightly different opinion about serverless haha :) I like this explanation why serverless looks promising: https://youtu.be/SPsaqiegOP4 https://youtu.be/SPsaqiegOP4. I recommend full video, but those few minutes are the important part. Personally, serverless helps me to build reliable software faster, and it minimizes the amount of time I need to spend setting up the infrastructure. For me it already changed the things big way. It'll not work the same way for everybody, which is fine and expected.
- yumraj 8y agoSame with microservices.
- sebazzz 8y ago> Lots of promise, eventually they had their place and now pretty much bygone. It that really the case or is it an assumption only because we don't find a new blog post or article every few days? The SOAP specification is stable, and the frameworks for building SOAP web services are also "done" and stabilized. There is not very much new stuff to tell about SOAP. > I feel the same about serverless. It just doesn't feel like it's really going to change things in a big way, but seems it will get some traction. In my opinion it is only a way to give the cloud provider leverage.
