Specmatic Description
Harness the advantages of contract-driven development to accelerate the creation and deployment of your microservices and micro frontends with confidence. By shifting left and eliminating the need for traditional integration tests, you can utilize API specifications as executable contracts to catch compatibility issues among your microservices early in the development process. This approach allows for parallel development, significantly reducing cycle times and enabling you to bring products to market at unprecedented speeds. As your project undergoes integration testing, potential integration problems are greatly reduced, leading to a more seamless, robust, and efficient workflow. Foster collaboration between your frontend and backend teams by easily aligning on API designs and specifications. Quickly transform your API specifications into tests at no cost and without writing code, running them against your services to catch integration issues proactively. Additionally, our innovative “no code” method allows you to detect backward incompatible changes simply by comparing two API specification versions, streamlining your development efforts even further. Ultimately, this approach not only enhances team collaboration but also contributes to a more agile and responsive development environment.
