Description
Postman is an API platform for building and using APIs. Postman simplifies each step of the API lifecycle and streamlines collaboration so you can create better APIs—faster
API testing is a type of software testing that analyzes an application program interface (API) to verify it fulfills its expected functionality, security, performance and reliability. The tests are performed either directly on the API or as part of integration testing
API Testing has gained popularity these days because of evolution of Micro Services. Each components are made as web service and to test these web services we can make use of Postman to test RESTful APIs manually. In this you will learn from basics to intermediate concepts of API Testing using REST APIs using Postman.
The topics which we have covered in this are .
– What is Postman and how to install it?
– Install and Use real time software and use it to send requests
– Creating GET, POST, PUT and DELETE requests
– Creating collections
– Global, Environment Variables
– Using Snippets & Assertions
– Using Console
– Using Workspace
– Using Mock Server
– Using Monitor
You will learn all the above step by step with an example.
I look forward to your participation in learning and gaining knowledge.
