All of us want to create reliable and effective API tests. We are here to help you with this! We are starting a series of interviews to analyze the most common mistakes that occur when testing APIs. We will tell you how to avoid such mistakes and change your testing methodology. Today, we will discuss why focusing only on the most common messages when preparing tests is bad.

There's been a lot of discussion around the proliferation of data sources in organizations and for good reason. There are so many ways to consume data now. When I first started working we would send out paper reports. Then Excel came along and we started sending out spreadsheets.

Loadero simplifies creation, running and hosting of end-to-end tests for real-time communications applications. These tests will exercise all flows involved in the application and provides a way to do performance assertions. Loadero can be used to test webRTC applications that require webcam and microphone inputs. Once the tests have finished running, webRTC statistics like jitter, latency and bandwidth are available for analysis. If certain thresholds for statistics are known, they can be enforced with post-run assertions.

One of the things I'm really passionate about is data and I how it can be used to influence decision-making. But everyone has their own personal biases and opinions that they use to create a narrative. This narrative can affect how we look at data. So even when the data tells us one thing, we may see something completely different.
