Transforming tomorrow with AI and automation today.

  Application Programming Interface, popularly called as APIs are an important aspect of software development lifecycle not only from the dev point of view but also from the testing perspective. These APIs facilitate interaction between different systems to exchange data. Hence, it becomes extremely important to test these APIs thoroughly to ensure seamless functioning of the application. In this article we will explore  API Testing  with Cypress Testing Framework and see how we can automate our APIs for efficient testing. We will cover below points in this article- Overview of API Testing API testing involves sending the HTTP Request, be it the GET, POST, PUT, DELETE(or other methods) to the backend server and retrieving the responses. Once the responses are retrieved they are validated to ensure that the expected values have been received. Some key aspects of API testing are listed below Verifying the Status Code  — Validation of the status code in the response is ...

  In the realm of IT and software testing, technological advancements are taking place every single day across the globe. Automation testing is replacing the majority of the manual testing efforts in organizations. We can observe that the majority of the tests have been carried out using automation in recent times because it offers numerous advantages over the age-old manual technique. Research Nester projects that the market for automation testing is expected to register a CAGR of 15% from 2023 to 2035. This clearly shows that automated testing is in high demand in today’s scenario. In the past, manual testing processes took longer for testers to prepare because they had to write all possible test cases to ensure every application portion was covered. Furthermore, human errors were more likely to occur. Additionally, huge volumes of data cannot be compared using manual approaches. All these limitations were addressed with the advent of automation testing. Automation testing has tr...
