API-first! Contract-first! Make API development great again!

Day 1 -- March 8th 13:30-14:20 Main Stage Advanced

In the current situation of increased remote working, having a common, easier to understand medium of communication such as an OpenAPI spec document is indispensable.

Things get exciting when this so-called OpenAPI spec document can help you build APIs and AUTOMATICALLY VALIDATE YOUR APIs! An OpenAPI spec document can also serve as a contract, generate clients, servers, documentation, and much more…

When this OpenAPI document can also:

  • Put your developers, clients and client’s developers first!
  • Have Automatic, Fail-fast, API Contract Validation!
  • Be Cross-Platform and Language Agnostic!
  • Generate clients, servers, and documentation from OpenAPI specs in a plethora of languages!
  • Simplify communication by means of a common document in YAML or JSON!
  • Speed up development, prototyping, R&D, etc.!
  • Reduce costs! Using contract tests in conjunction with (or as a replacement for) traditional end-to-end integration tests will be cheaper in the long run.

… things get even more interesting in the demo…
