[Check out the source code on GitHub here.](https://github.com/kubeshop/tracetest/tree/main/examples/quick-start-serverless)
:::

[Tracetest](https://tracetest.io/) is a testing tool based on [OpenTelemetry](https://opentelemetry.io/) that allows you to test your distributed application. It allows you to use data from distributed traces generated by OpenTelemetry to validate and assert if your application has the desired behavior defined by your test definitions.

[AWS Lambda](https://aws.amazon.com/lambda/) is a serverless, event-driven compute service that lets you run code for virtually any type of application or backend service without provisioning or managing servers. You can trigger Lambda from over 200 AWS services and software as a service (SaaS) applications, and only pay for what you use.

[Th Serverless Framework](https://www.serverless.com/) is an open-source framework designed to help developers build and deploy serverless applications more efficiently. It abstracts away the underlying infrastructure management tasks, allowing developers to focus solely on writing code and defining the functions that comprise their applications.

## Why is this important?

Testing Serverless Functions has been a pain point for years. Not having visibility into the infrastructure and not knowing where a test fails causes the MTTR to be higher than for other tools. Including OpenTelemetry in AWS Lambda functions exposes telemetry that you can use for both production visibility and trace-based testing.

This sample shows how to run integration tests against AWS Lambda Functions with the help of the Serverless Framework to manage resources, and using [OpenTelemetry](https://opentelemetry.io/) and Tracetest.

The AWS Lambda function will fetch data from an external API, transform the data, and insert it into an AWS DynamoDB table. This particular flow has two failure points that are difficult to test.

1. Validating that an external API request from an AWS Lambda function is successful.
2. Validating that the DynamoDB put request is successful.

## Prerequisites

**Tracetest Account**:

- Sign up to [`app.tracetest.io`](https://app.tracetest.io) or follow the [get started](/getting-started/installation) docs.
- Create an [environment](/concepts/environments).
- Create an [environment token](/concepts/environment-tokens).
- Have access to the environment's [agent cloud endpoint](/concepts/cloud-agent).
- [AWS Account](https://aws.amazon.com/) with the [AWS CLI](https://aws.amazon.com/cli/) installed and configured.

**AWS Lambda Functions Example:**

Clone the [Tracetest GitHub Repo](https://github.com/kubeshop/tracetest) to your local machine, and open the Serverless quick start example app.

```bash
git clone https://github.com/kubeshop/tracetest.git
cd tracetest/examples/quick-start-serverless
```

Before moving forward, run `npm i` in the root folder to install the dependencies.

```bash
npm i
```

## Project Structure

This is a [Serverless Framework](https://www.serverless.com/) project bootstrapped with [`serverless`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/serverless#quick-start).

### 1. AWS Lambda Function

The AWS Lambda Function code can be found in `src/` alongside the [OpenTelemetry wrapper configured as explained in the OpenTelemetry docs](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/languages/js/serverless/).

### 2. Tracetest

The `tracetest.ts` file contains the script that will execute the trace-based tests based on the serverless deployment.

## AWS Lambda Function

The AWS Lambda is a simple API, [contained in the `src/handler.ts` file](https://github.com/kubeshop/tracetest/blob/main/examples/quick-start-serverless/src/handler.ts).

```typescript
import { APIGatewayEvent, Handler } from "aws-lambda";
import fetch from "node-fetch";
import { Pokemon, RawPokemon } from "./types";
import DynamoDb from "./dynamodb";

const Pokemon = (raw: RawPokemon): Pokemon => ({
id: raw.id,
name: raw.name,
types: raw.types.map((type) => type.type.name),
imageUrl: raw.sprites.front_default,
});

const getPokemon = async (id: string): Promise<Pokemon> => {
const url = `https://pokeapi.co/api/v2/pokemon/${id}`;
const res = await fetch(url);

const raw = await res.json();

return Pokemon(raw);
};

const insertPokemon = async (pokemon: Pokemon) => {
await DynamoDb.put(pokemon);

return DynamoDb.get<Pokemon>(pokemon.id);
};

type TBody = { id: string };

export const importPokemon: Handler<APIGatewayEvent> = async (event) => {
console.log(event);

const { id = "" } = JSON.parse(event.body || "") as TBody;

try {
const pokemon = await getPokemon(id);
const result = await insertPokemon(pokemon);

return {
statusCode: 200,
body: JSON.stringify(result),
};
} catch (error) {
return {
statusCode: 400,
body: error.message,
};
}
};
```

The OpenTelemetry tracing is [contained in the `src/lambda-wrapper.ts` file](https://github.com/kubeshop/tracetest/blob/main/examples/quick-start-serverless/src/lambda-wrapper.ts). Traces will be sent to the Tracetest Cloud Agent.

```typescript
const api = require("@opentelemetry/api");
const { BatchSpanProcessor } = require("@opentelemetry/sdk-trace-base");
const { OTLPTraceExporter } = require("@opentelemetry/exporter-trace-otlp-grpc");
const { NodeTracerProvider } = require("@opentelemetry/sdk-trace-node");
const { registerInstrumentations } = require("@opentelemetry/instrumentation");
const { getNodeAutoInstrumentations } = require("@opentelemetry/auto-instrumentations-node");

api.diag.setLogger(new api.DiagConsoleLogger(), api.DiagLogLevel.ALL);

const { COLLECTOR_ENDPOINT = "" } = process.env;

const provider = new NodeTracerProvider();

const spanProcessor = new BatchSpanProcessor(
new OTLPTraceExporter({
url: COLLECTOR_ENDPOINT,
})
);

provider.addSpanProcessor(spanProcessor);
provider.register();

registerInstrumentations({
instrumentations: [
getNodeAutoInstrumentations({
"@opentelemetry/instrumentation-aws-lambda": {
disableAwsContextPropagation: true,
},
}),
],
});
```

## The Tracetest Script

The `tracetest.ts` file contains the script that will execute the trace-based tests based on the serverless deployment.

```typescript
import Tracetest from '@tracetest/client';
import { TestResource } from '@tracetest/client/dist/modules/openapi-client';
import { config } from 'dotenv';

config();

const { TRACETEST_API_TOKEN = '', ENDPOINT = '' } = process.env;

const definition: TestResource = {
type: 'Test',
spec: {
id: 'ZV1G3v2IR',
name: 'Serverless: Import Pokemon',
trigger: {
type: 'http',
httpRequest: {
method: 'POST',
url: '${var:ENDPOINT}/import',
body: '{"id": "${var:POKEMON_ID}"}\n',
headers: [
{
key: 'Content-Type',
value: 'application/json',
},
],
},
},
specs: [
{
selector: 'span[tracetest.span.type="database"]',
name: 'All Database Spans: Processing time is less than 100ms',
assertions: ['attr:tracetest.span.duration < 100ms'],
},
{
selector: 'span[tracetest.span.type="http"]',
name: 'All HTTP Spans: Status code is 200',
assertions: ['attr:http.status_code = 200'],
},
{
selector: 'span[name="tracetest-serverless-dev-api"] span[tracetest.span.type="http" name="GET" http.method="GET"]',
name: 'The request matches the pokemon Id',
assertions: ['attr:http.url = "https://pokeapi.co/api/v2/pokemon/${var:POKEMON_ID}"'],
},
],
},
};

const main = async () => {
const tracetest = await Tracetest(TRACETEST_API_TOKEN);

const test = await tracetest.newTest(definition);
await tracetest.runTest(test, {
variables: [
{
key: 'ENDPOINT',
value: ENDPOINT.trim(),
},
{
key: 'POKEMON_ID',
value: `${Math.floor(Math.random() * 100) + 1}`,
},
],
});
console.log(await tracetest.getSummary());
};

main();
```

The output from the `tracetest.ts` script will show the test results with links to the Tracetest App.

```bash
> [email protected] test
> ENDPOINT="$(serverless info --verbose | grep HttpApiUrl | sed s/HttpApiUrl\:\ //g)" ts-node tracetest.ts


Successful: 1
Failed: 0

[✔️ Serverless: Import Pokemon] #21 - https://app.tracetest.io/organizations/ttorg_ced62e34638d965e/environments/ttenv_a613d93805243f83/test/ZV1G3v2IR/run/21
```

### Tracetest App Results

![Tracetest App Results](../img/serverless-results.png)

To run the tests without deploying the serverless stack, you can use the `npm test` command.

### Running the example

Spin up the deployment and test execution.

```bash
npm start
```

This will trigger the serverless deploy command and immediately run the trace-based tests after completion.
