REST API Testing

REST API testing: By Zoltan Penzeli

An Introduction to REST API testing + practical comparison using Postman and Karate on how to create and run tests.

"Have you ever wondered what 'REST API' is? This talk would not just give you a brief overview - but will show you through examples, how REST APIs can be tested - or even automated - via Postman... And if you're keen on learning something edgy - an alternative API testing tool, called Karate will also be showcased during the presentation!"

About Zoltan:
Currently I'm working as a Test Automation Lead for TabCorp, establishing best QA practices across 20+ teams.
I started my career as a software developer about 20 years ago and slowly drifted into testing & test automation - doing testing from embedded system to complex microservice architecture with frontends. My motto is: "The culture of quality is everyone's responsibility"
