From Testing Microservices, the sane way by Cindy Sridharan

Opting into this model of testing has the additional benefit of incentivizing better isolation between services and the design of better systems. Requiring engineers to think hard about inter-service dependencies and how these might affect data integrity is a neat architectural design pressure. Being able to test one service against all others in production would also require that the service in test doesn’t have any side-effects on any of its upstream or downstream dependencies, which seems like a very reasonable design goal to me.

From Testing Microservices, the sane way by Cindy Sridharan

The biggest weakness of mocks when used as a testing tool is that both when simulating success as well as failure, mocks are a programmer’s mirage of a sliver of a future they cannot fathomably appreciate or even approximate in their minds during feature development time.
