API Testing: Data Files, End-to-end Testing, & Mocks in Postman

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. End-to-end testing with Postman is a crucial aspect of ensuring the seamless functionality and reliability of application programming interfaces (APIs). In the context of Postman, end-to-end testing involves evaluating all facets of an API's functionality by simulating real-world user scenarios. You will begin this course by performing end-to-end testing of your APIs, targeting all aspects of their functionality with simulated user requests. You will also learn how you can perform looping in Postman. You will configure loops to allow you to execute the same request multiple times before moving to other requests in your collection. Following that, you will learn to create mock servers, a technique useful for testing API functionality before its development is complete. You will also learn how to configure the API to return correct responses and error responses. Next, you will explore how to perform collection monitoring, allowing you to automate and schedule the execution of a request or collection. Finally, you will generate and publish documentation for your requests.
