I’m a huge fan of serverless, but one of the areas that’s still a bit tougher with it is testing. While you can mock an API call to a function, it’s not quite as easy to test an API endpoint as I’d experienced in more traditional stacks. This led me to creating a test suite in Postman, that hits my deployed APIs. Specifically I’m using this more as a smoke test, and final proof that the deployed APIs work as expected from real world use cases. I still have unit and integration tests in my codebase, but these Postman tests have turned out to be an extra layer of confidence. Further…
