API Testing

API Testing Services

Organizations have adopted modern architecture involving Cloud services and Mobile, and the result we see is a large composite system that sits behind these simple-looking applications. The content of the message layer and business logic is very critical to the successful operation of these applications. With the architecture following certain protocols, such as XML, SOAP, REST and others, the big question becomes – how to validate our Business Applications.

API testing focuses on the business logic layer of the software architecture. The goal of API is to have an integration of the application with other services.

During API Testing our QA team perform test cases in terms, that API should be easy to use by other software, secure and of course bugs free.

When we provide API Testing Services, we check different combinations of positive and negative scenarios. It allows you to be confident that your API doesn't have bugs, and the whole application works as expected.

Our offerings include Automated and Manual API testing services.

Unit testing – for checking the functionality of individual APIs.

Functional testing – for testing end to end functionality of the API layer.

Load testing – for validation of functionality and performance for the system under various levels of user/ transaction load.

Runtime error detection – Execution of Automated / Manual tests to identify problems, such as exceptions and resource leaks.

Security testing – Involves various types of security checks like penetration testing, authentication, encryption, and access control.

Web UI testing – end to end testing of the entire system using the APIs.

API Testing Types we provide

When we provide API testing services, we allocate QA engineers who have extensive experience in using API testing tools. It allows you to reduce the time and cost of the testing cycle and increases the performance of the tests:

Functional Testing - checking the overall health of the API.

Security Testing - checking the type of authentication and data encryption using HTTPS protocol.

Regression Testing - checking how API works after bug fixing and new features development.

Automation Testing - developing API tests to run them regularly.

Load Testing - checking how much load your API can support.

Negative Testing - checking how API worked when invalid data provided.

Documentation Testing - checking the completeness of the guidelines of API calls.
