More about the topic

When we talk about software architecture, maybe "micro services" is the most talked about term in recent times. However, before we think of micro services, we need to know one fundamental concept: REST APIs. In this talk, we will discuss aspects of REST APIs, differences between SOAP APIs, the importance of testing our APIs and how to test them. At the end of the talk, we will see examples of frameworks in different programming languages to automate this type of test.
