A Day In The Lyf

In the past week I released both v1.1.72 and v1.2.0. New features include:

• post-processing responses using a decorate behavior,
• easier proxy replay using the removeProxies query parameter when saving imposter configurtation
• improved validation during imposter creation
• support for storing imposters in multiple files when starting mb with the --configfile query param
• various bug fixes and doc updates (see the release pages for details)

Since the last release, there have been some good articles on testing in microservice environments and the tools involved (with some nice mountebank mentions). Here are a few good ones:

• A nice infodeck from my colleague Toby Clemson
• A really good blog post on the types of stubbing and service virtualization
• A FlowCon presentation from ThoughtWorks’ very own Sam Newman, who’s book should hit the press soon.
