Course Overview

REST Assured is a powerful set of APIs used to automate RESTful APIs and RESTful Web Services, similar to how Selenium WebDriver is used for web applications. Almost all web applications use REST APIs to communicate with the back end, and they have gained significant popularity in modern application architectures. It is therefore important for QA and automation engineers to understand how to automate REST API tests. Automating REST API tests is crucial for projects because they are quick to execute and more stable compared to web automation.

This course starts at the beginner level and progresses to the advanced framework level, providing everything you need to know about REST API manual testing and automation. We assume that students have no prior experience in automation or coding and introduce every topic from scratch and the basics. Examples are taken from testing real-time hosted REST APIs to demonstrate how different components can be automated, giving you an understanding of industry-level frameworks and building your confidence. You will begin by learning how to code in Java and then progress to Postman Client, REST Assured, TestNG, and Maven.

By the end of the course, you will have a solid understanding of REST API automation using REST Assured with Java and other modern framework technologies.
