Writing tests that communicate with a third party can be a little tricky, but we've found an approach that balances speed and confidence.

In today's episode, we share that approach and talk through a strategy of how frequently to run tests that talk to the outside world.

(00:00) - Why would your tests ever talk to an external service?
(02:30) - What does it mean to have a separate test suite?
(06:00) - Keeping them separate allows different triggers for running
(07:00) - When should you run external tests?
(08:30) - You can't always know when you'll break an external integration
(11:00) - Check on a schedule?
(13:00) - Silly bit
