This is something we need very desperately right now - DESPERATELY.

And despite that, this was the feedback from some of my colleagues (referring to this: https://github.com/karatelabs/karate/raw/master/karate-demo/...) :

"I not like syntax but docs looks like good_)"

"I also don't like the syntax. In the past, Ive ended up writing a lot of code that amounts to syntax configuration without a ton of benefit. Arguably, it's so that non-developers can read the tests, but in practice they still don't."

Most of our complexity comes from having to test against two independent systems - deployed smart contracts and a database. Anyway, let us see if they try it out.

I agree the syntax takes some getting used to. Do pass on to the team that there is an IntelliJ plugin and a VS Code plugin. You can easily call a database or any external system using Java interop: https://stackoverflow.com/a/52714248/143475

@zomglings is your team looking for something more UI driven like postman or something which simplifies or abstracts who dependencies are handled?

Thanks. Will do. One of my team mates already found the VS Code plugin. :)

Most of our problems are around how to deal with the blockchain. We already use a combination of Postman, bash scripts (lots of curl), and the VS Code version of Postman (our current preferred way to do things) to test the API live during development.
