  • Mock unit test an API that uses postgres or integration test API with a "test" database?

    For later stuff, I tend to go all the way, have a separate database that gets seeded, all tests are performed against it, then it gets shut down. Testcontainers work well with this.

    I think this is where we're talking past each other, so let me explain more of how I see the problem -- the solution I have in mind is serializing the URL and using ONE call to INCR (https://redis.io/commands/incr/) on the ingest side.

    There is a lot you can do with the data storage pattern to make other operations more efficient, but on the stats side, the most basic way you can do it is to scan

    I will concede that given that we know the data should fit in memory (otherwise you just crash) your approach gives you O(N) retrieval time and it's definitely superior to not have to do that on the python side (and python just streaming the response through). I am comfortable optimizing in-API computation, so I don't think it's a problem.

    Here's what I mean -- you can actually solve the ordering problem in O(N) + O(M) time by keeping track of the max you've seen and building a sparse array and running through every single index from max to zero. It's overkill, but it's generally referred to as a counting sort:

    This is overkill, clearly, and I will concede that ZSET is lighter and easier to get right than this.

    > You linked? Where? I'd like to know about any library that will do this. Tell me of any library that does integration tests that spins up infrastructure for you. The only one closest I can think of that you can run locally is anything that would use docker-compose or some other IAC language that controls containers. I honestly don't think any popular ones exist.

    I am very sure that I linked that, but in the case I didn't, here it is again -- hope you find it useful.

    > No way I'm going to assume the user has redis installed on his local machine. Many devs don't. It's all remote development for them or everything lives in containers.

  • orchestrating contaiers for testing?
    3 projects | /r/learnpython | 17 Jan 2022
    - https://github.com/praekeltfoundation/seaworthy but you have to recreate a manifest with code. Not ideal for mildly complex stuff. 3+years was last commit :(( - https://github.com/testcontainers/testcontainers-python which is weirdly specific to certain container images. Again, not working off a manifest (I think), 1 months since last commit. :( - https://github.com/vapor-ware/kubetest which uses kubernetes(k8s) manifests and integrates with pyTest. Last commit 10 month ago.

  • Hazelcast, from Embedded to Client-Server
    4 projects | dev.to | 16 Apr 2021
    Those are great options if you're developing in Java, but all is not lost if you aren't. Containerization can help us a lot! For example, the TestContainers project is available in all stack that Hazelcast support: Python developers can easily leverage the Python project to set up a local Hazelcast cluster quickly, Go developers the Go project, C# developers the .Net project, etc.
