What is API Testing with Real-life Examples
API testing is a type of software testing that focuses on testing application
programming interfaces (APIs) to ensure that they are functioning correctly and
delivering accurate responses.
API testing is important because it helps ensure that the APIs are functioning
properly and meeting performance expectations, which in turn helps improve the
overall quality of the software application.
Here are some statistics that highlight the importance of API testing:
• According to a survey conducted by SmartBear, 62% of software
development teams test their APIs more than 500 times per month.
• Another survey by Postman found that 75% of developers spend more than
a quarter of their time debugging APIs.
• In a report by RapidAPI, 90% of enterprises plan to increase their API
investment in the next 2 years.
• Poorly designed APIs cost businesses an estimated $140 billion per year,
according to a study by MuleSoft.
• In a survey by DZone, 85% of respondents said that API testing is very
important or critical to their business
Here's an example to better illustrate the concept of API testing:
Let's say you're developing a mobile app that uses an API to retrieve weather data
from a third-party service. In API testing, you would verify that the API is
providing the correct data and responding in a timely manner.
You might conduct tests to verify the following:
• The API returns the expected data for different locations and weather
conditions.
• The API responds within an acceptable timeframe.
• The API handles various error scenarios, such as invalid input or network
issues.
By conducting API testing, you can identify and fix issues before they impact users
and ensure that your mobile app provides accurate and reliable weather
information.
