API Testing

 

Code Q's staff includes many QA engineers with a background in software development and computer science. Thanks to this technical expertise, we've completed dozens of more advanced client projects that required specialized skill including:

 

 

API Testing

 

 

API Testing differs from unit testing in that it is typically a QA task and not a developer task. The software testing staff essentially creates black-box tests aimed at the API and not the GUI. This can involve creating new mini-programs to help test those interfaces; many testers in this process are developers.

 

 

Code Q understands that API testing must consider the full functionality of the system and that API tests must be extensive enough to take in many different types of scenarios, scenarios that typically involve interactions between many different modules within the software application. We can test REST APIs or WCF services.

 

 

Code Q can make use of traditional unit-testing tools such as the JUnit test framework, as well as techniques such as equivalence classes, boundary analysis, forced error testing, and soap testing to perform a complete and thorough API testing that focuses on testing the most likely usage scenarios.

 

 

Code Q can also help you automate your API/Web Services testing using various tools such as SOAPUI. We have organized and developed very focused skill-based testing personnel for use on these projects. That experience is essential when commissioning an API testing program. With a quick ramp up, Code Q can help get your testing project up and running fast.
