Experience
Front End-Only Functional Testing
The mocking of the APIs is done on the front-end API integration level from two sides.
From the first side by providing a parameter in the URL while loading the single page application, and from the test case side where the test itself is responsible for catching the state and populating browser's local and session storage with the expected data.
With this project, we achieved fewer test blockers and time saved in testing. With this, we can provide results and feedback more reliably and faster.
