The Developer Velocity Podcast, ep. 1: A Better Way to Test with Kafka

Efficient microservices testing without hefty resource costs? Signadot makes it possible with Kubernetes-native sandboxes. By isolating only the microservices you need, developers can test faster, reduce resource consumption, and catch bugs early—all while maintaining high performance. Learn how to streamline your testing workflow and set up a preview sandbox in just a few steps with Signadot, and see how companies like DoorDash and Brex are transforming their testing strategies. Ready to optimize your testing process? Let’s dive in!

In the complex world of microservices, traditional testing strategies often fall short. Sandboxes in a shared, production-like environment offer a game-changing solution. Used by companies like Uber and DoorDash, this approach combines isolated testing with the efficiency of shared resources. Teams can test new features faster, reduce costs, and maintain high agility in a single, centralized setup. Let’s explore the key challenges in microservices testing and how the sandbox method is transforming development.
