All of us want to create reliable and effective API tests. We are here to help you with this! We are starting a series of interviews to analyze the most common mistakes that occur when testing APIs. We will tell you how to avoid such mistakes and change your testing methodology. Today, we will discuss why focusing only on the most common messages when preparing tests is bad.

We invited a well-known test automation trainer and consultant, Bas Dijkstra, to talk about combining UI testing and API testing.

Virtual services are changing the way teams are developing and testing applications across various industries. While SmartBear's ServiceV solution makes it simple to build and run these virtual services locally, deploying them to be used by other teams opens up the power of virtualization to an entire organization.

 Zephyr for Jira is the leading native application that resides in Atlassian’s Jira Software bringing full featured test management capabilities to any Jira project. Join us to review the benefits of moving to Data Center and see how Zephyr for Jira is used with it.

Have a tour around ReadyAPI as we explore its tools designed for functional testing (SoapUI Pro), load testing (LoadUI Pro), and service virtualization (ServiceV Pro) of RESTful and SOAP APIs.

REST is a popular choice of an API architecture. Learn the basics of how RESTful services work and see how to interact with them in ReadyAPI. 

Learn how your team can employ winning strategies to maximize the benefits of test management with Jira.

With a solid API Monitoring strategy and practice in place, it becomes easier to find and fix issues rapidly, as well as increasing the amount of feedback so your teams can continuously improve. In fact, our State of API Survey found that teams that prioritize API Monitoring as a strategy are able to resolve API issues in less than 24 hours.

According to our latest State of API report, API performance is seen as a top-factor in the success of an API program. With teams shifting to CI/CD and DevOps delivery at a rapid pace, performance testing can still be a major bottleneck to most teams. Siloed performance engineering teams are unable to keep up with the rapid pace of modern software delivery - many organizations still run load tests outside of the pipeline and only when holiday season comes around.
