Node.js Microservices: Testing and Continuous Integration
Good test coverage is very important for continuous delivery of Node.js microservices. This course will teach you how to implement unit, integration, and end-to-end test coverage using Jest in your Node.js microservices so you can deliver quality code with confidence.
What you'll learn
Good test coverage enables more frequent code delivery with greater confidence. In this course, Node.js Microservices: Testing and Continuous Integration, you’ll learn to implement test coverage into your Node.js microservices and continuous delivery pipelines. First, you’ll explore setting up and configuring your codebase for test coverage. Next, you’ll discover how to implement test coverage into your codebase via unit, integration, and end-to-end test suites using Jest. We’ll accomplish this using a variety of testing concepts such as assertions, stubs, mocks and spies. Finally, you’ll learn how to integrate test coverage into your continuous integration and delivery pipelines and processes. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of testing Node.js microservices needed to be confident in your ability to deliver high quality Node.js code on demand and at scale.
