How to Mock OpenAI's APIs with Speedscale's ProxyMock

Mar 25, 2025 By Matthew LeRay In Speedscale
Developing APIs can often be a complex web of dependencies, external dependencies, and murky network traffic. In order to build better, developers need a certain amount of stability to test a query or feature against, and when this stability is lacking, development can get more complicated and difficult. Enter API mocking. API mocking is an approach to generating a mock service that provides dependable data for a variety of testing purposes.

Automating API Mocks in Your CI Pipeline with proxymock

Mar 25, 2025 By Ken Ahrens In Speedscale
When running tests in a CI/CD pipeline, relying on external APIs can introduce instability, slow down execution, and even lead to failed builds due to rate limits or API downtime. Fortunately proxymock provides a solution by capturing API interactions and running a local mock server, enabling fully isolated and repeatable tests. In this blog, we’ll demonstrate how to integrate proxymock into a GitHub Actions CI pipeline using a demo app called outerspace-go.

What Are Cloud Development Environments?

Mar 17, 2025 By Josh Thornton In Speedscale
Especially, if you have a globally distributed team, CDEs give you a smoother developer experience just by its online nature. Instead of wrestling with conflicting dependencies, trudging with inconsistent local setups, or waiting for your code to compile, you have a powerful, instantly accessible development environment in the cloud. CDEs remove typical limitations like hardware and scalability. You can quickly get started with minimal setup and configuration, but confidently move forward due to the flexibility and customization features CDEs provide.

New Browser APIs for Detecting Javascript Performance Issues in the Production

Mar 16, 2025 By Janani In Atatus
Users nowadays demand the greatest possible experience, which implies top-notch performance. Smooth scrolling, prompt interaction responses, a fast page load time, and flawless animations are all things they anticipate. Local profiling to identify performance issues is convenient, but it only provides a limited amount of information. While things may run smoothly on our high-end developer machines, the user may be dealing with poor hardware and a bad experience.

Combine Fixtures & Page Object Models for DRYer Test Code in Playwright

Mar 13, 2025 By Nočnica Mellifera In Checkly
If you're using Playwright for end-to-end testing or synthetic monitoring with Checkly, you've likely considered reusing your test code across different test cases. A common approach for this is using Page Object Models (POMs). However, if you're like me, you might have mixed feelings about POMs—while they help organize your code, they can sometimes feel cumbersome to set up and maintain.

Modernize Test Data Management with Traffic Replay

Mar 12, 2025 By Matthew LeRay In Speedscale
In software testing or platform engineering, having realistic data is crucial. For years, teams have relied on Test Data Management (TDM) to copy entire production databases, scrub any sensitive information, and then spin up test environments from these sanitized data sets. While TDM gets the job done, it can be costly, time-consuming, and can quickly become outdated.

Why you should never use page.waitForTimeout() in Playwright

Mar 5, 2025 By Nočnica Mellifera In Checkly
Playwright isn’t a testing framework. Sure it’s got assertions, scripted behaviors, even controls over environments. But testing isn’t Playwright’s only purpose. Playwright is an automation tool. It can carry out any browser-based action consistently, and carry out instructions robustly. Locators for buttons and other elements aren’t visual or CSS class-based, but based on ARIA role, and even small styling changes won’t make the scripted action fail.

Why you shouldn't run tests sequentially

Mar 4, 2025 By Nočnica Mellifera In Checkly
Frequently in support conversations and posts on Playwright forums, a problem has come up that’s a little bit hard to describe, but comes down to synchronous testing: developers writing a series of Playwright tests that operate on the assumption that one of the tests will either run first or run last, and perform the function of a setup and cleanup script.
