Our Postman API Testing Course has been specifically created to help beginners, current students and experienced workers learn the fundamentals when it comes to backend or web service testing using an API.
You will gain a solid foundation of knowledge related to the basic functionality of an API, as well as the most commonly used HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) and how to find and interpret HTTP response codes. In addition, this course will teach you all aspects of RESTful Services, as well as how to use Postman for easy creation, execution, and automation of API test cases.
You will also have the opportunity to learn advanced concepts related to writing automation scripts using JavaScript in Postman, performing API authentication procedures, working with environment variables, performing data-driven testing and creating automated reports, directly from experienced API testers through a series of hands-on exercises using live API.
We provide our students with full interview preparation, real-world scenarios and complete resume support to enable you to land a job in the software testing arena.
Our live, online classes give you access to professional API testers and provide you the knowledge needed to succeed in API testing and expand your career opportunities in software testing.
