What is API Testing?
API testing determines if APIs meet expectations for functionality, reliability, performance, and security. It is essential for the whole process of API development, implementation, and maintenance. API testing tools are a necessary means to make applications healthy and ready to fulfill their purpose.

Types of API Testing
Testing APIs has a goal to check whether the APIs are perfect in terms of functionality, reliability, performance, and security. API testing can be performed in ten ways.

API Testing Basics
API testing requires a full spectrum of checking procedures under different loads of vulnerabilities. API Testing conducts at the message layer and accomplishes verification directly at the API level. API testers perform functionality, performance, and security validation to discover the way all features operate together from end to end.

Automated API Testing
The automation of the testing process makes it easy and quick; it allows increasing test coverage and frequency, saving money and time while implementing the whole process between development and QA, as well as the debugging in production.

Unit Testing
Unit Testing validates the correctness of the smallest portion of the code, prevents defects at the beginning stage, makes the development process faster and easier, and spares the efforts and costs the system testing or acceptance testing might require.
