The API describes and prescribes the "expected behavior" (a specification) while the library is an "actual implementation" of this set of rules. A single API can have multiple implementations (or none, being abstract) in the form of different libraries that share the same programming interface.

The Experience API (xAPI) is an e-learning software specification that records and tracks various types of learning experiences for learning systems. [1] Learning experiences are recorded in a Learning Record Store (LRS), which can exist within traditional learning management systems (LMSs) or on their own.
API testing is a type of software testing that involves testing application programming interfaces (APIs) directly and as part of integration testing to determine if they meet expectations for functionality, reliability, performance, and security. [1] Since APIs lack a GUI, API testing is performed at the message layer. [2]
An example of a popular web API is the Astronomy Picture of the Day API operated by the American space agency NASA. It is a server-side API used to retrieve photographs of space or other images of interest to astronomers, and metadata about the images. According to the API documentation, [15] the API has one endpoint:
All the @*Param annotations take a key of some form which is used to look up the value required. @PathParam binds the method parameter to a path segment. @QueryParam binds the method parameter to the value of an HTTP query parameter. @MatrixParam binds the method parameter to the value of an HTTP matrix parameter.
SoapUI is an open-source web service testing application for Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) and representational state transfers (REST). Its functionality covers web service inspection, invoking, development, simulation and mocking, functional testing, load and compliance testing.
