BitDive Full Cycle Testing
Real environments, realistic scenarios, deep validation
Combine BitDive's runtime intelligence with Testcontainers for complete integration testing solution. Test against production-identical infrastructure with real user scenarios and behavioral validation.
The Modern Testing Crisis in Distributed Systems
Why traditional approaches fail across integration, regression, performance, and contracts
Microservices and cloud-native architectures have made integration testing exponentially harder. Manual mocks break constantly, test environments don't match production, and surface-level validation misses critical logic errors.
- Mock and Contract Drift: Hand-written mocks and static contracts fall out of sync with real behavior
- Environment Parity: Recreating realistic databases, queues, and services per test is slow and fragile
- Surface-Only Assertions: Output checks miss internal behavior, async issues, and performance regressions
- Unrealistic Data: Manually crafted scenarios don't reflect real user flows and concurrency
Integration Testing Challenges We Solve
Modern architectures have made comprehensive testing exponentially harder
Hand-written mocks break with every dependency change and don't reflect real behavior
Setting up realistic test environments with databases, queues, and services is time-consuming
Traditional integration tests only check final outputs, missing internal logic errors
Manually crafted test scenarios don't represent real user behaviors and edge cases
Complete Full Cycle Workflow
From environment setup to deep validation in minutes
The entire testing cycle is automated: provision real infrastructure, load captured scenarios, execute against production-like services, and validate with behavioral analysis. No manual setup, no brittle mocks, no surface-level assertions.
- Automated Provisioning: Testcontainers starts real databases and message brokers programmatically
- Scenario-Driven: BitDive provides realistic test data captured from actual user interactions
- Hybrid Approach: Real internal services with intelligently mocked external dependencies
- Comprehensive Validation: Logic, performance, and behavior verification in a single test run
The Complete Testing Stack
Six components that work together for comprehensive validation
BitDive: Scenario Capture
Capture real execution flows from production or staging with complete runtime context
Smart Dependency Isolation
Automatically mock external APIs while keeping internal services real using driver-level virtualization
Deep Behavioral Validation
Validate internal method calls, SQL queries, Kafka messages, and performance characteristics
Automatic Driver-Level Mocks
Generate realistic mocks from captured interactions at the driver boundary (JDBC, HTTP, Kafka, WebSockets)
Testcontainers: Real Environment
Programmatically provision containerized infrastructure (PostgreSQL, Kafka, Redis) for each test
AI-Enhanced Analysis
Integrates with AI assistants via MCP protocol for intelligent code analysis and suggestions
Automated Integration Testing
From brittle mocks to runtime certainty
Stop wasting time creating and maintaining mocks that break with every change. BitDive automatically generates intelligent mocks from real interactions and validates complete behavioral flows.
- Automatic Mock Generation: Capture real interactions with databases, Kafka, REST APIs and instantly create context-aware mocks
- Deep Protocol Support: Beyond HTTP - capture and mock JDBC, Kafka, gRPC, WebSocket interactions at the driver level
- Behavioral Validation: Verify entire interaction flows, not just final responses - catch async faults and logic errors
- Self-Updating Mocks: Mocks automatically reflect real behavior changes, eliminating maintenance overhead
Automated Regression Testing
Build a resilient, self-healing test suite
Create regression tests from real user scenarios that focus on business logic while ignoring irrelevant changes. No more flaky tests that train developers to ignore failures.
- Tests from Real Scenarios: Convert captured user transactions into powerful regression tests that matter
- Intelligent Assertions: Smart behavioral comparison ignores timestamps and data order while catching logic drift
- Automated Diff Analysis: AI compares two calls or runs to highlight meaningful changes and suggest test updates
- Continuous Validation: Automatically build comprehensive test coverage from production traffic
Performance Testing with Surgical Precision
Instant root cause analysis for every bottleneck
Find the exact method, SQL query, or Kafka interaction causing performance issues. Compare execution graphs before and after changes for data-driven optimization proof.
- Instant Root Cause Analysis: Trace requests to the exact line of code or SQL statement causing delays
- N+1 Query Detection: Automatically flag performance anti-patterns invisible to traditional testing
- Data-Driven Optimization: Before/after run comparison proves performance improvements
- Proactive Monitoring: Catch performance regressions in development, not production
Contract Testing: Validate Behavior, Not Just Specs
Living contracts based on actual runtime behavior
Move beyond static OpenAPI specifications to validate that real implementation behavior matches consumer expectations. Prevent breaking changes before they reach production.
- Living Contracts: Capture real service interactions to create contracts based on actual runtime behavior
- Behavioral Adherence: Replay consumer requests to prove provider implementations meet real expectations
- CI/CD Integration: Automatically verify changes won't break consumers before deployment
- Producer-Consumer Validation: Ensure both sides of the contract work correctly in real scenarios
Beyond Pass/Fail: Intelligent Test Analysis
Deep insights that prevent production issues
Traditional tests give you pass/fail. BitDive provides behavioral analysis, performance insights, and regression detection. Understand not just what changed, but why it matters for your users and infrastructure.
- Behavioral Diffs: See exactly what changed in your application's internal behavior and interactions
- Performance Analysis: Detect N+1 queries, memory leaks, and latency regressions before deployment
- Coverage Insights: Understand which code paths are exercised and identify testing gaps
- Trend Analysis: Track how your application's behavior evolves over time with each change
Why teams choose Full Cycle Testing
Real benefits that improve your testing and deployment confidence
Comprehensive Coverage
Test against production-identical infrastructure with realistic scenarios. Catch integration issues, performance regressions, and logic errors that traditional unit tests and mocks miss completely.
Zero Maintenance Overhead
No more brittle mock management or complex test environment setup. Testcontainers handles infrastructure, BitDive provides scenarios and validation - your tests just work, every time.
Production Confidence
Deploy knowing your changes work correctly in realistic conditions. Deep behavioral validation catches subtle bugs before they impact users, reducing incidents and improving system reliability.

KeycloakFrequently Asked Questions
Is HTTP mocking sometimes enough?
Yes—for simple CRUD services. For async, DB-heavy, or business-critical flows, BitDive provides stronger guarantees.
Do I need code changes?
No. Just add the agent and a small config; use helper APIs for replay.
Overhead at runtime?
Minimal, with control over scope and rate of capture.
Which protocols are supported?
HTTP, JDBC, Kafka, gRPC; more can be added via drivers.
How does this differ from APM/profilers?
APM observes performance; BitDive verifies correctness by replaying captured behavior.
Can it run on-prem?
Yes—works in both cloud and on-prem environments.
