Explain service testing in cloud-native environments.

Senior Microservices
Quick Answer Cloud-native service testing: use realistic test environments (not mocks for everything). Contract tests for service interfaces. Chaos testing (inject failures to verify resilience). Load testing against staging with production-like data volumes. Canary in production with monitoring as the final test gate. Avoid shared test environments - each team runs its own isolated environment.

Answer

Use test environments closely matching production.
Mock dependent services using stubs or simulators.
Perform load and stress testing with JMeter, Gatling, or k6.
