Summary

The Twilio Test Toolkit (TTT) is a Ruby gem that simplifies testing Twilio applications by simulating incoming or outgoing calls from Twilio's perspective. It allows developers to write integration tests for their Twilio apps with minimal fuss and syntax, focusing on testing the app's functionality rather than dealing with Twilio details. TTT can simulate interactions with TwiML elements, press digits, and inspect responses, making it easier to test complex scenarios in a Twilio app. The gem is open-source and available as a Ruby gem, providing documentation and a list of ideas for contributors. With TTT, developers can write test-driven development tests, run them frequently, and have confidence that their apps will work as intended.
