Testing for Microservices
Microservices are an architectural approach to software development where the software is composed of small independent services that communicate through well-defined APIs.

To verify the call and response of the MicroService, the consistency in the types of data, order, and completeness of the same.
To verify the behavior of the MicroService implemented from its methods. This verification is done through the generation of possible scenarios that the service uses.
Its objective is the verification of the response times and the performance of the MicroServices. In addition, an availability testing is recommended. Response times are monitored on the service bus, according to the range.
The purpose of this test is to test the transaction from the mobile application to the application of the movements in the sender and receiver´s accounts of the transfer.
The challenge currently faced by technology areas to respond faster and faster to business needs has triggered a series of changes. This includes one that is almost invisible to the human eye, but decisive when it comes to scaling efficiently: architecture based on Microservices, which is also characterized by its agility and flexibility, attributes that respond to the modern dynamics of businesses in any sector.
Although this type of architecture based on MicroServices provides great benefits, it also involves the implementation of cutting-edge technology practices such as continuous delivery (DevOps), automated infrastructure, testing and assurance of quality assurance, for which we have prepared ourselves at GreenSQA by defining strategies adjusted to this need.
Each Micro Service is an executable in itself and can be deployed without affecting the rest.
It improves the understanding of the applications, since the business logic is decoupled, as MicroService is in charge of a single functionality.
It facilitates the development of software in distributed work teams, as well as the possibility of expanding or reducing depending on the needs.
They allow each service to be scaled independently to adapt to specific or seasonal traffic peaks.
Our challenge at GreenSQA has been to define a new strategy to test and ensure the quality of applications with microservices architecture, which beyond testing each MicroService individually, allows us to test their integration and, most importantly, test and guarantee the consistency of the data.
Our approach allows verifying information at all communication points, as well as the functionality of all MicroServices.
