Watch the video to understand the concept of WebSockets!
WebSockets are a protocol that enables real-time, bi-directional communication between a client and a server over a single, persistent connection. In the context of testing, WebSockets are used to verify the functionality, performance, and reliability of applications that require instant data exchange and event-driven interactions. This includes ensuring stable connections, correct message delivery, proper handling of events, and recovery from network issues.
