Using a Martial Art To Do Tests

on YouTube ↗11m

" summary

Builds integration and end-to-end tests with Karate, claiming Karate is framework-agnostic so tests survive migrations (Quarkus → Spring Boot) and act as black‑box HTTP checks. Shows BDD-style feature files with Scenario / Given / When / Then syntax, advises external JSON payloads, wildcards for dynamic IDs/dates, reusable scenarios for setup, small JS functions for date/string transforms, and running separate performance stages (Karate + Gatling) integrated into CI/CD.
