No application is an island: you need to interact with third-party APIs, databases and who knows what else. Testing those interactions is tricky, to say the least! This workshop will focus on expanding your Rust testing toolkit, going beyond the basic techniques you're already familiar with. At the end of this workshop, you'll have a strategy to test most of the scenarios that are relevant for a complex Rust application.
The course assumes you have a good understanding of Rust's basic concepts and want to move beyond the built-in testing toolkit. If you run into any issue with the assumed level of Rust knowledge, please ping us and we'll sort it together!
