Answers for "API Testing"

how do you do positive api testing

How I do positive testing in api, 
	- I send valid path and query parameters, 
	- valid headers, 
	- valid request body to valid url and verify that 
	- response status code is correct and 
	- response body is as expected
    
How I do negative testing in api,
	- I send invalid request parameters
	- or invalid headers
	- or invalid request json body and verify 
    that response status code is not 200 
	- and response body contains error message 
    (for example there are 100 employees numbered
    from 1 to 100 I send 101 as a parameter and I
    should be able see 404 Not Found 
    The requested resource was not found.)

api test

fetch('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/todos/1')
  .then(response => response.json())
  .then(json => console.log(json))

have you done api testing

I have worked on API testing in my project and I used
POSTMAN for manually testing and REST ASSURED
java LIBRARY for automation.
I used JDBC and it is a Java-based data access technology
used for Java database connectivity. It provides classes and
interfaces to connect or communicate Java application with
database.
JDBC API is a Java API that can access any kind of data
stored in a Relational Database. It enables Java programs to
execute SQL statements.

api testing approach

Write suitable test cases for the APIs
and use testing techniques 
like exploratory testing,
boundary value analysis, positive and negative 
testing for understanding the functionality.

• Verify the calls with combination of
two or more value added parameters.
• Define the scope and basic
functionality of the API program.
• Define the accurate input parameters.
• Test case execution and comparison 
of the results with expected results.
• Determining API behavior under
conditions like the connection with files,
etc.

- There are different types of 
output observed of an API also:

The main consideration is returning
correct results under any type of 
conditions. Mainly, the output or
results observed of an API are divided 
into three sections as follows:
• Returning the result status 
values as ‘Pass’ or ‘Fail’.
• Result as data or any specific
information.
• An event where the call to any 
API function will initiate the call to 
another API function

API Testing

from locust import HttpUser, between, task


class WebsiteUser(HttpUser):
    wait_time = between(5, 15)
    
    def on_start(self):
        self.client.post("/login", {
            "username": "test_user",
            "password": ""
        })
    
    @task
    def index(self):
        self.client.get("/")
        self.client.get("/static/assets.js")
        
    @task
    def about(self):
        self.client.get("/about/")
