At QA Harvest, we specialize in API testing services to ensure your APIs function properly, integrate seamlessly, and perform securely. Here’s an overview of the API testing services we offer:
Verify that the APIs work as intended by checking the expected outcomes for various input conditions. This ensures that the API functions correctly and meets business requirements.
Assess how the API performs under various levels of load, measuring its responsiveness and stability when subjected to different user traffic scenarios.
Identify vulnerabilities in the API by conducting penetration tests and security audits, ensuring that sensitive data is protected against potential threats.
Evaluate the API's performance metrics, including response time, throughput, and resource usage, to ensure it meets performance standards during peak usage.
Test the API in conjunction with other services and components to ensure seamless interaction and data flow between systems, validating that all integrations work correctly.
Re-test the API after updates or changes to confirm that existing functionalities remain intact and no new issues have been introduced.
Verify that the API documentation accurately reflects the API's capabilities, ensuring that it is clear, complete, and useful for developers integrating with the API.
Use mock services to simulate the behavior of real APIs, allowing for testing in scenarios where the actual API may not be available or is still under development.
Assess the API's ease of use from a developer's perspective, ensuring that it is intuitive, well-structured, and easy to integrate into applications.
Conduct comprehensive testing that covers the entire workflow from the API to the user interface, ensuring that all components interact correctly and deliver the expected user experience.
At QA Harvest, we leverage industry-leading test automation frameworks to ensure efficient, reliable, and scalable testing that enhances software quality and performance.
Playwright is a modern open-source testing framework for web applications that allows for cross-browser testing (Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit). It supports multiple programming languages and offers features such as auto-waiting, capturing screenshots, and generating code from user interactions, making it ideal for fast and reliable end-to-end testing.
Cypress is a JavaScript-based end-to-end testing framework designed for modern web applications. It provides a simple setup and an interactive test runner that allows developers to see tests in action. With features like real-time reloading, time-travel debugging, and automatic waiting, Cypress enhances developer productivity and test reliability.
WebDriverIO is a test automation framework that allows you to run tests on different web and mobile applications. It uses the WebDriver protocol and is known for its simplicity and ease of use. WebDriverIO supports multiple testing styles (TDD, BDD, and others) and integrates seamlessly with various reporting and assertion libraries.
