Continuous Quality with Postman

Aired: Wednesday, September 22, 8:00 a.m. (PDT)

Join us for a one-hour, intermediate-level Postman training geared specifically for API testers and other stakeholders invested in the health of your APIs, including product managers, business managers, DevOps practitioners, and more.

“Continuous quality” is a holistic mindset for API testing, and in this session, we'll discuss continuous quality principles as we walk through some advanced testing workflows and recommended practices for testing in Postman.

We'll cover these topics:

Run tests locally using the Postman Collection Runner
Automate testing as part of your continuous integration (CI) pipeline using Newman, Postman's command-line Collection Runner
Reduce the time and effort of regression testing cycles by using Postman monitors

Extend the power of Postman's scripting interface with external libraries
Perform snapshot testing using mock servers

Prerequisites:

Create a Postman account, and then sign in.
Download and install the Postman desktop agent, which will enable you to use the web version of Postman that we use in Postman Intergalactic sessions.
Have a working knowledge of writing tests in Postman, and the different types of tests.
Install Node.js (version 10 or later) and Postman's command line runner (Newman).
