Karate DSL is extremely effective in those situations where you have a microservice still in development, but the \"consumer\" web-UI dev team needs to make progress. Just create a mock definition (feature) file, and since it is plain-text - it can easily be shared across teams via Git. Since Karate has a binary stand-alone executable, even teams that are not familiar with Java can use it to stand-up mock services. And the best part is that the mock serves as a \"contract\" - which the server-side team can use to practice test-driven development.","rawContent":"@{Karate DSL}|tool:10448| is extremely effective in those situations where you have a microservice still in development, but the \"consumer\" web-UI dev team needs to make progress.

As the maintainer of the Karate DSL open-source project - I found Travis CI very easy to integrate into the GitHub workflow and it has been steady sailing for more than 2 years now ! It works well for Java / Apache Maven projects and we were able to configure it to use the latest Oracle JDK as per our needs.
