Learn how to quickly build an ephemeral CI test environment using GitHub Actions and proxymock. This video shows you how to insert meaningful tests without depending on flaky mocks or virtualized services.
In today's fast-paced software development environment, continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD) has become essential for delivering high-quality software quickly and efficiently. A well-designed CI/CD pipeline automates integrating code changes, running tests, and deploying updates, allowing development teams to release new features and fixes more frequently with reduced risk. Adopting CI/CD can significantly improve development efficiency.
Ken Ahrens from Speedscale break down the challenges with service mocks — from the complexity of building them to common misunderstandings about their purpose. Many think of mocks like unit test stubs, but service mocks are much more powerful. They can simulate production conditions right on your laptop, making testing more realistic and reliable.
Ken Ahrens from Speescale dives into the best AI API integration model of March 2025 — Anthropic's MCP model. This innovative integration enables seamless communication with browsers and various tools, including the popular Cursor. Discover how the MCP model is revolutionizing AI-powered workflows and boosting productivity.
Have you ever tried to ship a software update smoothly but suddenly encountered a few bugs that slowed down your entire DevOps cycle? Forgetting about these small issues can quickly turn them into big problems— time, money, and user trust. Software teams need fast, reliable testing, and manual methods can be inadequate. That’s why test automation has become a necessity, especially in high-velocity DevOps settings.
The FinTech industry is experiencing unprecedented growth, with global investment reaching $164.1 billion in 2022 (KPMG). However, with increasing cyber threats and stringent regulatory compliance requirements, FinTech companies must adopt robust, scalable, and secure software development methodologies.
APIs often represent the cutting edge of the technology space. This is especially true with Artificial Intelligence – as AI has evolved from speculative technology to mass adoption, it has shown up significantly in APIs as a modality and mechanism. However, as with all new technologies, using AI APIs comes with significant challenges.
Use the free proxymock CLI to observe your locally running gRPC app without code changes. You can also create service mocks and embed them into your CI/CD pipeline using the same recording.
DevOps has revolutionized how teams build, test, and release software, emphasizing speed and collaboration. However, with rapid development cycles and continuous deployments, one major challenge remains: maintaining full traceability.
