Explaining 9 types of API testing. The method to download the high-resolution PDF is available at the end.
๐น Smoke Testing
This is done after API development is complete. Simply validate if the APIs are working and nothing breaks.
๐น Functional Testing
This creates a test plan based on the functional requirements and compares the results with the expected results.
๐น Integration Testing
This test combines several API calls to perform end-to-end tests. The intra-service communications and data transmissions are tested.
๐น Regression Testing
This test ensures that bug fixes or new features shouldnโt break the existing behaviors of APIs.
๐น Load Testing
This tests applicationsโ performance by simulating different loads. Then we can calculate the capacity of the application.
๐น Stress Testing
We deliberately create high loads to the APIs and test if the APIs are able to function normally.
๐น Security Testing
This tests the APIs against all possible external threats.
๐น UI Testing
This tests the UI interactions with the APIs to make sure the data can be displayed properly.
๐น Fuzz Testing
This injects invalid or unexpected input data into the API and tries to crash the API. In this way, it identifies the API vulnerabilities.
