#ICYDK: Application development is getting complicated, as applications tend to get complex with changing customer preferences and challenges posed by digital technologies. Testing for Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) happens at the message level, which is highly critical, as it helps to gauge its accessibility, performance, functionality, and security. API tests are the fastest tests to get incorporated within online Product Development processes. At the same time, API Testing can be tricky, emphasizing that the testing activity needs to be scrupulously planned with some best practices.
Test Automation has been considered for various types and categories of testing. It not only brings speed but also ensures accuracy and maximum test coverage. Test Automation for APIs is needed to eliminate any possible errors, detect defects early, and ensure quality through the application development cycle. However, Automated Testing is a strategic decision, which needs a scope of work and plan for execution. If done without a plan, Automation can be chaotic. https://goo.gl/kMTwdH
