Get the best knowledge about API testing with Postman

Posted by ASKME on February 25th, 2020

As the trends are changing day by day in every field so as well as in software testing these trends bring a huge transition in a tester life which is a very important thing to know for everyone interested in the software testing. so for that, we share some points on API testing with the tool Postman. we start from the basic what is API testing and also what is postman all these points are covered so API full form is the Application Programming Interface. API testing is a software testing method that tests the APIs Directly - from their functionality, reliability, performance to security. API testing is part of integration testing. Nowadays due to mobile usage, most of the website is getting migrated to App development. In-app development, API is the middle layer between the Presentation (UI) and the database layer. APIs enable communication and data exchange from one software system to another.

There are three separate layers in a typical app: the presentation (or user interface) layer, the business layer, and the database layer for modeling and manipulating data.

API testing is performed at the most critical layer: business, in which business logic processing is carried out and all transactions between the user interface and database layers happen.

There are several tools available to perform the API Testing i.e Postman & Soap UI. Our course syllabus is designed as per industry needs and covers all advance techniques to perform API testing i.e understanding of different HTTP methods, API & Web services, Rest API Architecture & Soap UI Architecture, Postman API tools installation & API automation framework. that's all about API testing now we move on to Postman it's not the one who came with a letter 

What is Postman?

Postman is currently one of the most popular tools used in API testing. It is started in 2012 as a side project by Abhinav Asthana to simplify API workflow in testing and development. API stands for Application Programming Interface which allows software applications to communicate with each other via API calls.

Postman is the only complete API development platform. Postman’s built-in tools support every stage of the API lifecycle. You can design and mock, debug, automatically test, document, monitor and publish your APIs -- all from one place.

Postman is mainly used to Restful API testing. You could also execute your tests from the command line/terminal but you would need to install a Newman to achieve this. This way it is possible to execute the same tests from the CI/CD pipeline.

What Postman does?

Postman makes an HTTP/https call to the URL that is provided. You would also need to consider if the endpoint requires authorization. Postman gives you the capability of adding this information and supports OAuth 1.0, OAuth 2.0 to name a couple. This is like passing your username and password.

•    Postman testing training  is currently one of the most popular in API testing 

• Accessibility, Use of Collections, Collaboration, Continuous Integration, are some of the key features to learn in Postman

• You can parameterize request in Postman

• You can create Tests to verify a postman request.
