Continuously testing Heroku GitHub deployments

In plain words

Assertible integrates with Heroku and GitHub to automatically run QA tests whenever code is deployed. Developers can set up continuous integration pipelines that test each branch in its own environment, validating API functionality without manual intervention. The tool simplifies testing workflows by automating quality checks as part of the deployment process.

In this post I will demonstrate how to setup an automated continuous integration and continuous testing QA pipeline for a web app using Heroku and GitHub. This app will be setup to deploy all branches to a unique environment and runs automated API tests against the web app. In the Heroku dashboard, navigate to the app you would like to test and click the Deploy tab.

That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
