We had Karate Labs training workshops by [sensitive content hidden] to teach developers how to maximise the benefits of Karate. [sensitive content hidden] is very approachable and the Karate Open Source community is very active too. In fact, I see more and more developers outside my company become Karate converts.

Karate DSL is seriously mind-blowing for test automation, especially when it comes to API testing. Brace yourself for multi thread parallel execution, reusable tests, crazy and powerful assertions, jaw-dropping reports with detailed logs , easy customization, immediate support on social platforms like Stackoverflow and lightning-fast onboarding. I mean, in less than a month, I had over 120 API services automated with Karate for my first project and after that, Karate became essential tool in my further assignments up until now. It's legit one of the best decisions I've made in my life. And guess what? Karate rocks not only at API testing but also performance testing with integration to Gatling. Yeah, you heard it right. Same code, double the power. Don't even think twice-Karate DSL is the ultimate choice for the next-gen testers out there. Go for it, You won't regret it, trust me.

I can't recommend Karate enough. It's really transformed the way my organization tackles API projects, and enabled our QA engineers to focus more on what they do best -- ensure quality in our products -- and less on learning to become Java developers.

This solution is easy to teach to people without a lot of coding experience, but it is capable of being extended by those with a deeper skillset. Because Karate also uses Scenarios in Feature files, teams who are using a Cucumber framework can create Karate tests which live alongside legacy Cucumber tests, enabling a team to increase productivity by developing tests which are faster and more stable, while continuing to run their legacy tests. Both tests can exist side-by-side, in the same repository, so the team doesn't have to switch all at once. As Cucumber tests are rewritten in Karate, tags can be adjusted to coordinate which tests are run by which framework.

Karate has made it a whole lot easier to solve some very complex testing scenarios that involve initializing third-party components, setting up test data, running API tests, followed by web and desktop UI tests, sometimes even combining them within one feature file. It also greatly simplified the post-execution steps for capturing test runs for compliance purposes. I have onboarded several engineers to use Karate and observed their proficiency in the framework grow very rapidly. Karate is truly a breath of fresh air when it comes to often daunting and complex world of test automation!
