API testing involves testing APIs directly (in isolation) and as part of the end-to-end transactions exercised during integration testing. [1] Beyond RESTful APIs, these transactions include multiple types of endpoints such as web services, ESBs, databases, mainframes, web UIs, and ERPs.
They are also called [2] API mocking tools, service virtualization tools, over the wire test doubles and tools for stubbing and mocking HTTP(S) and other protocols. [1] They enable component testing in isolation. [3] In alphabetical order by name (click on a column heading to sort by that column):
Like a remote interface, a Web service endpoint interface defines the business methods of the bean. In contrast to a remote interface, a Web service endpoint interface is not accompanied by a home interface, which defines the bean's life-cycle methods. The only methods of the bean that may be invoked by a Web service client are the business ...
Major changes in OpenAPI Specification 3.1.0 include JSON schema vocabularies alignment, new top-level elements for describing webhooks that are registered and managed out of band, support for identifying API licenses using the standard SPDX identifier, allowance of descriptions alongside the use of schema references and a change to make the ...
Together, the endpoint and the query string form a URL that determines how the API will respond. This URL is also known as a query or an API call. In the below example, two parameters are transmitted (or passed) to the API via the query string. The first is the required API key and the second is an optional parameter — the date of the ...
Microsoft Azure exposes an OData API. Oracle Analytics Cloud can connect to an OData API; SAP NetWeaver Gateway [37] provides OData access to SAP Business Suite and SAP Business Warehouse. IBM WebSphere eXtreme Scale REST data service can be accessed by any HTTP client using OData. [38] Microsoft SharePoint 2010 and up can expose its data as ...
An API is often made up of different parts which act as tools or services that are available to the programmer. A program or a programmer that uses one of these parts is said to call that portion of the API. The calls that make up the API are also known as subroutines, methods, requests, or endpoints.
A website might, for instance, set up a PUT endpoint to modify a user's recorded email address. If this endpoint is configured correctly, any requests which ask to change a user's email address to the same email address which is already recorded—e.g. duplicate requests following a successful request—will have no effect.
