Dependency Mocking and Service Virtualization: Make Every CI Test Deterministic
Dependency mocking replaces real external dependencies (APIs, databases, queues) with controlled substitutes during testing. Service virtualization extends this to enterprise scale, adding stateful simulation and protocol support beyond HTTP. Keploy implements a traffic-capture approach: it records real dependency interactions at the kernel level using eBPF and replays them in CI, making integration tests deterministic without…
