Hands-On Guide to API Testing with Karate
Automated testing of APIs is essential for teams to implement robust, reliable and scalable software.
However, there is a misconception that API testing is difficult to implement, and teams often don’t know where to start.
This hands-on course introduces API testing using the Karate Framework – a powerful tool designed to implement all types of test automation (including API testing) in a simple and expressive non-technical syntax.

This course will cover the following topics:
● Installation and setup of Karate
● Writing API tests in Karate
● Creation of an API testing automation framework with Karate
