Locally testing Lambda functions used for Alexa skills - Dabble Lab #23
#23: This video expands on my free Alexa development course at http://dabblelab.com/courses and shows how to test AWS Lambda functions locally - without deploying them first.
Overview:
Using AWS Lambda is a great way to host skill services for Amazon Alexa. But, when you're getting started, a common question is - how do you test your Lambda functions without having to deploy them first?
It's actually pretty easy, but it's even easier when you understand how Node modules work. So, we'll start with a quick overview of Node modules, and then we'll look at how the code for a Lambda function can be used locally like a Node module for testing before you deploy it to AWS.
