Given a scenario where multiple microservices are being developed simultaneously, how would you utilize contract testing to maintain compatibility?
- By creating and sharing contracts or API specifications among teams to ensure that each microservice adheres to the agreed-upon interface.
- By developing microservices independently without considering compatibility.
- By periodically updating microservices without checking for compatibility.
- By relying solely on integration testing to catch any compatibility issues between microservices.
Contract testing involves creating and sharing contracts or API specifications among teams to ensure that each microservice adheres to the agreed-upon interface. This helps maintain compatibility and prevents issues during integration. Integration testing alone may not catch all compatibility issues, and developing microservices independently without considering compatibility can lead to integration challenges.
