Marketing is a very important department in every company. In case of Allegro, marketing is especially difficult because you have so many products to promote. In this post we will tell the story of a platform we built for marketing purposes.

At Allegro we want to be sure that our software works as designed. That’s why tests are so important to us. In several projects we are using Elasticsearch. In order to make writing integration tests that uses Elasticsearch easier, we’ve created a little tool called embedded-elasticsearch. It sets up Elasticsearch instance that you need for your tests (including installation of plugins) and gives you full control of it.
