Ephemeral Environment Testing: Do you need it?

Feb 18, 2025 By Kush Mansingh In Speedscale
Traditional testing methods often delay the software development lifecycle, as we have grown used to these outdated processes without considering alternatives. Ephemeral environments introduce a more efficient solution. They allow for the quick creation and dismantling of isolated testing environments. These isolated environments approach leads to faster and more productive development cycles while still delivering high-quality software to users. In this article, we'll explore ephemeral environments, how they work, and why they might be the solution your team needs.

Intro to proxymock, a free traffic-based service mocking tool within VS Code.

Jan 22, 2025 By Speedscale In Speedscale
Speedscale's proxymock is a free VS Code plugin that passively listens to transactions, so developers can replay past responses or inbound transactions like a time machine. Past transactions can serve as non-rate-limited service mocks, editable databases, or even regression/load/chaos tests. Building service mocks to serve as service virtualization/mocks can be time consuming and manual. Maintaining complex, shared environments for engineering incurs expensive cloud costs and aren't often accurate.
