Verify Your Distributed System with Black Pipe Testing
When you test a program as a "black box", you send it in and out pops the result, like toast. But network code has I/O at two ends: the API and the network. If we only test the API, we don't test its wire protocol or error-handling. We need a "black pipe" test, which tests the API while messaging over a socket. I’ll present a handy library and advise you when to use black pipe tests.
