API test design

OpenText Functional Testing's API (service) testing solution provides tools for the construction and execution of functional tests for headless (GUI-less) systems or the backend of applications with a GUI.

Create API tests using:

Option	Description
Standard Activities	Represent common API or back-end processes used by applications.
Custom Activities	Enable you to import your own service models and methods.
API Testing Extensibility	Custom activities that enable you to extend your product's capabilities.
Checkpoint validation	Validate application state and performance at specific points throughout a test
Data Usage in API Tests	Parameterize your actions and test steps with data from a data source.
Event Handlers for API test steps	Add steps to run custom code, or event handlers, which perform a special process in the context of an individual test step.
