Sr Staff Engineer at Ataccama | Socio-Technical Architect Driving Strategy with Teams & Product | Meet-Up Organiser
Consumer-driven contract testing is a surprisingly effective way for two teams to stop breaking each other. This is a gentle introduction for anyone who has never written a Pact, starting from the conversation between two services and ending with the confidence to ship without synchronous coordination. In this talk, Robin will show what a contract actually is, where it belongs in a service-based / microservice architecture, and how a small, cheap test buys a remarkable amount of team independence and flexibility.
