Too Long; Didn't Read

In this article you'll see how you can engineer tests for yourself with Docker. The example will cover a simple set of CRUD endpoints for users. It's more than enough to grasp the concept and apply to the more complex business logic of your API. It creates "containerized" versions of all the external parts we use. It is mocking but on the outside of our code. Our API thinks it is in a real physical environment. This is more valuable than knowing if your class somewhere in the middle of the app works OK or not.
