Title:
I'm okay, you're okay: why contract tests can save you from integration nightmares.
Short synopsis:
Ever come to the point of releasing that code into production only to find that the third-party API you're integrating with for some reason doesn't do what you expected? Ever spent time on remote calls fiddling with the third-party's engineers to get that piece of work out of the door? If you have then you know that can be stressful, unpredictable, Contract testing can help. Contract tests permit an agreement to be drawn up in the form of tests between the provider and consumer that both can code to. They allow the two sides to continue development at their own paces, allow developers to test locally without external dependencies, and they massively increase the certainly that your code in test will integrate in production. Using contract tests your integration nightmares will become a thing of the past.
