Description

This is a crash course on Postman that can help you get started with API testing in less than an hour. This course begins by covering basic API terminology and then Postman Anatomy and how to test APIs manually, followed by enough content on automating API testing in Postman. You get to learn how you can write custom assertions in Postman to verify almost anything with respect to an API request. This course also touches on the concept of Data-Driven testing with a live API demonstration, which is possible by integrating external data files with the automated tests in Postman. Additionally, you learn about many postman capabilities, which help you create an automation framework faster.



If you’re a software tester who has worked on web applications forever but have got a requirement to work on an API project, all of a sudden, then this course is for you.
