FREE UFT API TRAINING
About a month ago I gave a webinar for the VIVIT HP UFT group on The Basics of API testing Using HP’s Unified Functional Testing (UFT).
Since then I’ve received a few emails asking me to rerecord the webinar because of the bad quality of the VIVIT recording. You asked for it — here it is. I broke the webinar down into two videos.
Why API testing is so important
In this video I basically cover what I went over in my previous blog post, The GUI is no longer king – Why API Testing is so important.
The Basics of API Testing using HP’s UFT API In this video I gave a hands-on demo on using UFT API for:
- How to test a Web Service
- How to data drive a test
- How to pass data between UFT API activities
- How to create a checkpoint
- How to create custom code
- How to test a rest service
