Book Description
Avoid common API coding pitfalls and make test automation effortless with Postman and the Newman CLI
Key FeaturesLearn the tenets of effective API testing and design with workflow testing and moreGain an in-depth understanding of Postman’s new and existing features, including Mock ServersKnow when and how to use Postman to create high-quality APIs for software and web apps
Book DescriptionPostman is an invaluable tool for exploration and testing of web APIs and helping testers and developers figure out how an API works. With Postman, you can create effective test automation for any APIs, and this guide will help you unleash its full potential.API Testing and Development with Postman is an invaluable resource for anyone who wants to create a good quality API, but isn't sure how to go about it. This guide will help you unleash the full potential of Postman’s test automation capabilities.A combination of theory coupled with real-world examples will help you learn how to use Postman to create well-designed, documented, and tested APIs. After you’ve familiarized yourself with the theory, you’ll move on to hands-on projects that will teach you how to add test automation to an existing API. You’ll also learn some of the new and powerful features that Postman has that can help you avoid introducing bugs.This second, fully updated edition features new chapters on workflow testing, creating and using mock servers, API security testing, and performance testing. The new and expanded information in this edition will help you future-proof your APIs.By the end of this book, you'll be able to use Postman to set up and run API tests for any API that you are working with.
