In this episode, we’re cracking open chapters 6 and 7 of “Programming AWS Lambda” to explore development concepts that can make or break real-world serverless apps:

🛠️ Testing – unit, integration, and end-to-end tests and how they fit into shipping quality applications
 📈 Observability – logging, metrics, and tracing so you can see exactly what just happened (and why) inside your functions.

Join us to discuss the Test Pyramid and code used to demonstrate unit, functional, and end-to-end testing.  We also demonstrate logging and monitoring with Lambda functions.

And as always,  we break down key concepts, share practical takeaways, and keep the conversation lively and interactive!
