Arthur Hicken, Parasoft
There’s no question that API testing is integral for identifying defects at multiple layers of your application to ensure a seamless customer experience. But with so many different approaches and tools available on the market, where and how do you even get started? Instead of getting overwhelmed, you can understand API testing in a meaningful way, unlocking your power to create an effective testing strategy and ensure that your applications work the same today as they did yesterday.
In this session, Chris Colosimo will walk you through the API testing fundamentals. He’ll discuss the different types of API tests, where and why you might use them, and how to use this knowledge to successfully scale and deploy at your own organization. He’ll then review the tools landscape and describe the critical capabilities to consider in an enterprise test automation solution.
