Overview of this book

Software in recent years is moving away from centralized systems and monoliths to smaller, scalable components that communicate with each other through APIs. Testing these communication interfaces is becoming increasingly important to ensure the security, performance, and extensibility of the software. A powerful tool to achieve safe and robust applications is Karate, an easy-to-use, and powerful software testing framework. In this book, you’ll work with different modules of karate to get tailored solutions for modern test challenges. You’ll be exploring interface testing, UI testing as well as performance testing. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to use the Karate framework in your software development lifecycle to make your APIs and applications robust and trustworthy.

What is Gatling?

Load and performance testing are two types of software testing that help developers to evaluate the performance of their applications under different workloads. Load testing is the process of simulating user traffic on an application to test its ability to handle a high volume of requests. This type of testing helps to identify the maximum capacity of an application and determine whether it can handle the expected workload without crashing or slowing down.

On the other hand, performance testing is the process of measuring the speed, scalability, and stability of an application under different conditions. This type of testing helps to identify the performance bottlenecks in the application and optimize it for better response and resilience.

In the context of APIs, load and performance testing are used to evaluate the ability of an API to handle a high volume of requests and respond within the expected time frame. These tests help developers to identify potential...
