Introduction

Up to this point, you have learned how to develop and apply Azure functions, in addition to validating the functionality of these functions. This chapter will explore some of the popular ways of testing different Azure functions. This includes running tests of HTTP trigger functions using Postman, as well as using Azure Storage Explorer to test Azure blob triggers, queue triggers, and other storage service–related triggers.

You will also learn how to set up a test that checks the availability of your functions. This is done by continuously pinging the application endpoints on a predefined frequency from multiple locations.
