The first rule of test club is to not treat developing tests any differently than developing software. We all know that is far from the case today. Best practices apply here. While cut & paste is frowned upon in best-practices software development, it’s pretty common for modern app developers (and others, we’re looking at you QA) to kludge together Frankenstein code for testing APIs and microservices.
Not only does this reduce the reliability of tests, it severely limits their longevity and shareability — which are tantamount to limited reusability.
So what’s the opposite of cut & paste? What’s the foundation of Test Easy? It’s modularity, my friend. And Skyramp is built from the ground up to embrace it.
But modularity isn’t an island. Test Easy requires more. Modularity unlocks the door to get there, but you’ll have to wait until the next blog to find out where it takes you.
