Courses
-
Build practical API testing and automation skills with RestAssured, Java, Maven, and Cucumber. Designed for learners who want hands-on experience with API testing, this course takes you from API and web service fundamentals to structured, end-to-end test automation. You’ll configure a Maven-based Java project, create RestAssured tests, and build API requests using GET, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE methods. You’ll work with JSON data using JSONPath and JSONObject, validate API interactions, and apply authentication, authorization, and parameterization techniques to strengthen your test cases. As you progress, you’ll design and execute a behavior-driven development (BDD) automation framework using Cucumber feature files and test runners. You’ll connect these techniques into a complete RestAssured API testing workflow and evaluate best practices for future test implementation. What makes this course distinctive is its step-by-step progression from API fundamentals and project setup to request handling, security, parameterization, and BDD framework execution. By the end, you’ll be able to configure RestAssured projects, create and validate API tests, and execute structured API test automation with Cucumber.
-
Build practical REST API testing skills with REST Assured in Java through a structured, hands-on approach to designing, implementing, and validating API tests. Designed for testers, developers, and automation engineers, this course helps you strengthen your Java-based backend testing skills and understand how to verify RESTful web services. You’ll begin by exploring the purpose of REST Assured, configuring a Java testing environment, and creating your first API test scripts. You’ll learn to send requests and perform basic response validations before progressing to more detailed API testing techniques. As you advance, you’ll parse JSON responses, extract nested values, validate HTTP status codes and response headers, and use query parameters to simulate dynamic API calls. Practical demonstrations and test case construction help you apply these techniques to REST API testing scenarios. What makes this course distinctive is its step-by-step progression from REST Assured setup to response validation and dynamic request handling. By the end, you’ll be able to construct REST Assured test scripts, interpret JSON responses, validate API behavior, and apply structured testing practices to RESTful services. Enroll to build a practical foundation in REST API automation with Java and REST Assured.
-
Strengthen your REST API test automation skills with REST Assured in Java at an intermediate level. Designed for learners with foundational REST API knowledge, this course helps you apply practical techniques to build, execute, and verify reliable API tests in a Java testing environment. You’ll use core HTTP methods, including GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, and PATCH, to test complete CRUD operations with REST Assured. You’ll configure and execute requests, update and delete resources, and validate RESTful API interactions. As you progress, you’ll implement serialization and deserialization to handle request and response data and apply authorization techniques, including authorization headers and Bearer token authentication, for protected APIs. Through hands-on exercises, practical examples, and real test cases, you’ll develop REST Assured workflows that combine HTTP operations, data handling, and secure API testing. What makes this course distinctive is its focused progression from core requests to CRUD operations, data transformation, and authorization. Enroll to advance your Java test automation skills and confidently apply REST Assured to intermediate REST API testing scenarios.
-
Advance your REST API test automation skills by designing structured, scalable testing workflows with REST Assured, Cucumber, Java, and POJOs. Designed for software testers and automation engineers, this course focuses on building maintainable, behavior-driven API testing solutions. You’ll configure a Maven-based REST Assured project and implement end-to-end CRUD API tests using authentication, request chaining, response validation, and reusable data structures. You’ll then integrate Cucumber to create human-readable API test scenarios with Gherkin syntax, feature files, and step definitions for behavior-driven development (BDD). You’ll also convert JSON payloads into Java POJOs for structured request and response handling. Through practical REST API testing workflows, you’ll learn to organize test data, interpret status codes, validate responses, and improve test reusability and maintainability. By the end, you’ll be able to configure advanced REST Assured projects, automate CRUD API workflows, implement Cucumber BDD tests, and use Java POJOs for structured API data handling. Enroll to build practical skills for creating modular and maintainable REST API automation solutions.
