Holistically built and tested APIs
summary
Claims a practical Elixir-way TDD workflow: building APIs in Phoenix with concrete libraries and examples. Shows inquisitor for query param → Ecto queries, mail for RFC2822 compose/parse and courier for queued, rate‑limited delivery with adapters and a test adapter that the suite can receive. Describes ecto_fixtures that compile fixture files, topologically sort by foreign keys, and insert in order, plus json_api_assert and Ember/ember‑exam based parallel acceptance testing.
