There might be two different scenarios while API testing. One when you are consuming API from other providers and the other one when you are designing API for your own application.
When you are developing API for your application, you should start for white box testing. The basic approaches are : unit testing, integration testing, edge test cases and security testing.

10x Test Coverage, Less Drama: Shift Left Functional & Performance TestingSauce Labs
Can you move faster, ship more often and still achieve greater test coverage than you do today? Yes! Learn how shifting left (building tests where and when code is built) and making those tests more focused in scope (atomic) and independent of each other (autonomous) can give you back your nights and weekends while increasing test coverage 10x or 100x. Once your tests are atomic and autonomous, you can run them in parallel and reduce time to feedback from hours or days to minutes.
In this webinar, technical experts from Sauce Labs and BlazeMeter share the essentials to building tests that scale in coverage without the brittleness of traditional automation approaches.

An Introduction To Automated API TestingSauce Labs
As more and more apps are being assembled from a rapidly expanding array of microservices, APIs are the key to accessing these new architectures. That new feature you’re working on will often rely on upstream services that can only be accessed via APIs - so to test the functionality of the new component you’ll need to simulate those services.
While APIs are the backbone of the websites and apps we rely on today, automated testing of them is only starting to grow. Join Patrick Poulin, CEO of API Fortress, as he provides an introduction to API testing, the best ways to test your own APIs using popular tools available today, and demonstrates the orchestration of API tests and Sauce Labs tests as part of a Jenkins build process.
Key takeaways:
-Clearly understand what API testing means.
-Learn about best practices.
-See demonstrations of popular testing tools.
-See API and UI/UX testing implemented as part of a Jenkins build.

API Testing: The heart of functional testing" with Bj RollisonTEST Huddle
View webinar: http://www.eurostarconferences.com/community/member/webinar-archive/webinar-81-api-testing-the-heart-of-functional-testing
An API, or Application Programming Interface, is a collection of functions that provide much of the functional capabilities in complex software systems. Most customers are accustomed to interacting with a graphical user interface on the computer. But, many customers do not realize the much of the functionality of a program comes from APIs in the operating system or program's dynamic-link libraries (DLL). So, if the business logic or core functionality is exposed via an API call then and if we want to find functional bugs sooner than API testing may be an approach that provides additional value in your overall test strategy. Additionally, API testing can start even before the user interface is complete so functional capabilities can be tested while designers are hashing out the "look and feel." API testing will not replace testing through the user interface, but it can augment your test strategy and provide a solid foundation of automated tests that increase your confidence in the functional quality of your product.

API First Workflow: How could we have better API Docs through DevOps pipelinePronovix
API Documentation plays an important role in improving the customer’s experience with APIs, which is always a struggle for most of the company. The way to accomplish this is to transition API development culture from “Code First” to “Design First”, here in SAS we call it “API First”. For better API designing and documentation, we have built an API First CI/CD workflow which brings many open-sourced API tools together and involves developers, product managers, documentation writers, and testers to synchronously work together to develop APIs in a “Design First” approach, the industry standard.
In the talk, we will discuss how the API-first Workflow could enable better collaboration between teams which could help in many aspects especially writing the openAPI documentation, keeping it up to date and sync with your code. We will take a deep look at one example, the Linting tool from API First workflow, which helps to make sure the API documentation follows the company standard from the start. With openSource linting tools like Spectral, it’s easy for teams to define their own linting rules which includes company standards. When your API specifications go through the linter in the CI/CD pipeline, the linter will throw errors and warnings as you write your spec. This will help ensure your specification is following proper guidelines and that’s all automatic.
Patterns for automating API delivery. API conferencessuser9e7c64
Automating API product delivery is about automating workflows to improve the quality and delivery speed for APIs by applying APIOps principles. In this talk, I discuss patterns for
API consistency checks: Enforcing API design standards with linting tools like Spectral, Redocly and Vacuum.
API breaking change checks: Automating breaking-change checks with OpenAPI diff tools like Oasdiff
API conformance checks: Ensuring accuracy of your API reference documents using API conformance tools like Schemathesis.
API code generation: Generate server and client code using SDK generators like OpenAPI Generator
PI's are fundamental for designing and maintaining quality components. Eclipse currently has little tooling to support the design, implementation and maintenance of APIs. As part of the Ganymede release, PDE provides tools to support binary compatibility checking, API usage scanning and plug-in version numbering management. This talk details the technology available in Ganymede, supported usecases and outlines directions for future development. We will also discuss the challenges of proper version management in the bundle world.
Goal:
Minimize technical debt, code changes, and rewrites. Show stakeholders and customers the developing or fully-implemented UI as early as possible.
How:
Fake the backend. Then when the UI code is completely done, make the backend real.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
