    Stubs | Mocks | Fakes: Let’s define the boundaries!!

    While writing tests for an application, we may fall into different scenarios, which must be considered for writing tests, that are strong enough to check the robustness of the application. Let it be Unit testing, Integration testing, or some other, we may encounter some situations where we need to isolate our implementation from dependencies or…

    Automated End to End tests using Property Based Testing | Part I

    ” Engineers call them edge cases. I call them: what our users do ” – Noah Sussman Testing remains a crucial aspect of software development. Software engineers and quality assurance professionals make use of diverse techniques and methodologies to rigorously test applications. However, even with these measures in place, bugs can still emerge. In this…

  • Unit Tests vs. End-to-End Tests: Which One Should You Prioritize?

    Unit Tests vs. End-to-End Tests: Which One Should You Prioritize?

    There is often a philosophical debate about whether to write a unit test or an end-to-end test. This has been a common question I have encountered many times – when limited in time and resources, what kind of testing should be done? Weighing up such factors can be difficult, especially given that usually only one…

  • 4 Ways to Accelerate Your Software Testing Life Cycle

    4 Ways to Accelerate Your Software Testing Life Cycle

    As a software developer, you understand that testing can often bottleneck the software development life cycle (SDLC), potentially delaying product delivery. Optimizing and speeding up the Software Testing Life Cycle (STLC) without compromising quality is essential for efficiency and agility. In this guide, we’ll explore four key strategies to accelerate testing and maintain high standards…

    My journey of Automating Test Cases!

    Hey! Testing keploy with postman APIs by making API calls and checking if the response is right or not (manually) is a frustrating task.🥱 I have been exploring different ways to automate testing. So, next time I don’t have to execute the same things again.🕵️‍♀️ Over the period of last few weeks, I have been exploring…

    API Automation Testing : Pynt & Keploy

    Pynt & Keploy : API automated testing is critical for product quality and CI/CD processes. Unlike GUI tests, API tests can cope with short release cycles and frequent changes — without breaking the test outputs. What is API testing? In software application development, API is the middle layer between the UI and the database layer.…

  • Know about Record and Replay Testing [2026 update]

    Know about Record and Replay Testing [2026 update]

    Record-and-replay testing captures real interactions with an application, such as API traffic, and replays them later as automated test cases, letting teams build suites without hand-writing scripts. Keploy is built around this model for APIs, recording live traffic to generate both tests and mocks, then replaying them to catch regressions. Automated testing makes the whole…

    What is unit testing anyways?

    Introduction Unit testing is a technique that emphasizes testing a particular piece of code. It is mainly done to check the functionality of a block of code, that is, to confirm the code does what you expect it to do. But does that mean we have to test every functionality individually? An application has numerous…
