Optimized for Kubernetes, Quarkus is designed to help you create Java applications that are cloud first, container native, and serverless capable. With this cookbook, authors Alex Soto Bueno and Jason Porter from Red Hat provide detailed solutions for installing, interacting with, and using Quarkus in the development and production of microservices. The recipes in this book show midlevel to senior developers familiar with Java enterprise application development how to get started with Quarkus quickly. You’ll become familiar with how Quarkus works within the wider Java ecosystem and discover ways to adapt this framework to your particular needs. You’ll learn how to: Shorten the development cycle by enabling live reloading in dev mode Connect to and communicate with Kafka Develop with the reactive programming model Easily add fault tolerance to your services Build your application as a Kubernetes-ready container Ease development with OpenAPI and test a native Quarkus application

With traditional software unit tests, there's never a guarantee that an application will actually function correctly in the production environment. When you add microservices, testing becomes even more tricky. Testing Java Microservices teaches readers how to write tests like unit, component, integration, container, contract, chaos, and more. Along the way, it also covers technologies like the Arquillian ecosystem, Wiremock, Mockito, AssertJ, Pact or Gatling. Finally, the book demonstrates how everything fits together into the Continuous Delivery pipeline. Key Features: * Practical hands-on guide * Writing Persistence tests * Teaches test strategies * Shows how everything fits together in the Continuous Delivery Pipeline Readers should be comfortable programming in Java. Experience with testing tools like jUnit is helpful but not required. Some experience in Java EE, Spring and Docker is also helpful. About the Technology: A microservice may consist of several, several hundred, or even several thousand of lines of code. Microservices enable programmers to isolate and scale smaller pieces of an application, rather than the entire application.

"Jason Porter could find a place on the shelf beside Richard Brautigan, George Saunders, and David Sedaris. This is a quick, odd, wonderful book, one that pinned me back on my heels and made me laugh."
-Colum McCann, author of "Let the Great World Spin"
"Have we all sunken into a species-wide bout of clinical depression?"
Porter's uproarious, intelligent debut centers on Raymond Champs, an illustrator of assembly manuals for a home furnishings corporation, who is charged with a huge task: To determine whether or not the world needs saving. It comes to him in the midst of a losing battle with insomnia -- everybody he knows, and maybe everybody on the planet, is suffering from severe clinical depression. He's nearly certain something has gone wrong. A virus perhaps. It's in the water, or it's in the mosquitoes, or maybe in the ranch flavored snack foods. And what if we are all too sad and dispirited to do anything about it? Obsessed as he becomes, Raymond composes an anonymous survey to submit to his unsuspecting coworkers -- "Are you who you want to be?," "Do you believe in life after death?," "Is today better than yesterday?" -- because what Raymond needs is data. He needs to know if it can be proven. It's a big responsibility. People might not believe him. People, like his wife and his boss, might think he is losing his mind. But only because they are also losing their minds. Or are they?
Reminiscent of Gary Shteyngart, George Saunders, Douglas Coupland and Jennifer Egan, Porter's debut is an acutely perceptive and sharply funny meditation on what makes people tick.
