  },
};

export default function () {
  const res = http.get('https://api.example.com/users');
  check(res, {
    'status is 200': (r) => r.status === 200,

  sleep(1);
}

Artillery

      arrivalRate: 50
    - duration: 60
      arrivalRate: 10

    flow:
      - get:
          url: "/users"

Security Testing

OWASP ZAP

bash

# Docker scan
docker run -t owasp/zap2docker-stable zap-baseline.py \
  -t https://example.com \
  -r report.html

Dependency Scanning

bash

# npm audit
npm audit
npm audit fix

# Snyk
npx snyk test
npx snyk monitor

Test Quality Checklist

• Deterministic - Same input produces same result
• Isolated - No shared mutable state
• Fast - Unit: < 10ms, Integration: < 1s, E2E: < 30s
• Readable - Test name describes scenario
• Maintainable - Change one behavior, change one test
• Focused - One logical assertion per test

Anti-Patterns

Anti-Pattern	Problem	Fix
Testing implementation	Tests break on refactor	Test behavior
Flaky tests	Non-deterministic failures	Remove time/order dependencies
Overmocking	Tests nothing real	Only mock boundaries
No tests for bugs	Regression reappears	Add regression tests

Best Practices

1. Test behavior - Not implementation details
2. Use parameterized tests - For multiple inputs
3. Mock at boundaries - External APIs, DB, filesystem
4. Name tests descriptively - Scenario + expected result
5. Run tests in CI - On every push
6. Monitor coverage - But don't chase 100%
7. Delete skipped tests - Or fix them
8. Use mutation testing - Verify test quality
