BASIC vs. Clojure vs. JavaScript vs. ReadyAPI Comparison Chart

Clojure is a robust, practical, and fast programming language with a set of useful features that together form a simple, coherent, and powerful tool. Clojure is a dynamic, general-purpose programming language, combining the approachability and interactive development of a scripting language with an efficient and robust infrastructure for multithreaded programming. Clojure is a compiled language, yet remains completely dynamic, every feature supported by Clojure is supported at runtime. Clojure provides easy access to the Java frameworks, with optional type hints and type inference, to ensure that calls to Java can avoid reflection. Clojure is a dialect of Lisp, and shares with Lisp the code-as-data philosophy and a powerful macro system. Clojure is predominantly a functional programming language and features a rich set of immutable, persistent data structures. When a mutable state is needed, Clojure offers a software transactional memory system and reactive Agent system.

The ReadyAPI platform accelerates functional, security, and load testing of RESTful, SOAP, GraphQL and other web services right inside your CI/CD pipeline. ReadyAPI allows teams to create, manage, and execute automated functional, security, and performance tests in one centralized interface - accelerating API quality for Agile and DevOps software teams. Teams can get started by importing API definitions like OAS (Swagger) or WSDLs, testing and recording live API traffic, or virtualizing web services to remove pipeline dependencies. Create comprehensive, data-driven functional API tests without the hassle of maintaining scripts. Generate load, stress, and spike tests to validate whether your API can handle real-world traffic conditions. Secure your vulnerable APIs from XSS, malformed XML, SQL injections and more with each deployment. Remove dependencies in your testing pipeline by virtualizing RESTful, SOAP, TCP, JMS, and other web services.
