Process
Now we can go through the process which is needed for using the postman as API testing tools the following is a process which is use for using Postman for API testing in more efficient manner:
- Identify the APIs to test in postman: For the identification of the API, we need to Identify the APIs that are going to be tested.
- Design the test cases for various test’s: Designing the different test cases for each API testing is a crucial process and it should be done with the high precision.
- Creating the Postman requests for requesting data: This is this first process to start with by simply creating postman requests for every test case execute it to check the performance.
- Then execute the tests for testing purpose with script: After that the next process is to execute and then Analyse the results of the tests that we get and identify any possible errors and issues.
- After that fix the errors received: Now as we find some of the possible error now, we need to fix any errors that are found (if any)
- Again, repeat the complete process: Repeat this overall process until all of the tests that are created should pass.
Postman vs Making HTTP Request and Asserting Response
The Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) allow the different software components to form the communication and also easily exchange the data in between. As a result, API testing has become a more important part of software development and quality assurance terms. This article focuses on discussing API testing tools like Postman over the HTTP request and asserting the response with the step-by-step guide of making a request in Postman
