Abstract

We present JoT, a testing framework for Microservice Architectures (MSAs) based on technology agnosticism, a core principle of microservices. The main advantage of JoT is that it reduces the amount of work for a) testing for MSAs whose services use different technology stacks, b) writing tests that involve multiple services, and c) reusing tests of the same MSA under different deployment configurations or after changing some of its components. In JoT, tests are orchestrators that can both consume or offer operations from/to the MSA under test. The language for writing JoT tests is Jolie, which provides constructs that support technology agnosticism and the definition of terse test behaviours.
