A company is building a micro services app1 cation that consists of many AWS Lambda...

This solution will meet the requirements by using AWS Serverless Application Model (AWS SAM) templates and gradual deployments to automatically test the Lambda functions. AWS SAM templates are configuration files that define serverless applications and resources such as Lambda functions. Gradual deployments are a feature of AWS SAM that enable deploying new versions of Lambda functions incrementally, shifting traffic gradually, and performing validation tests during deployment. The developer can enable gradual deployments through AWS SAM templates by adding a DeploymentPreference property to each Lambda function resource in the template. The developer can set the deployment preference type to Canary10Percent30Minutes, which means that 10 percent of traffic will be shifted to the new version of the Lambda function for 30 minutes before shifting 100 percent of traffic. The developer can also use hooks to test the deployment, which are custom Lambda functions that run before or after traffic shifting and perform validation tests or rollback actions.
