Description

This course gets you started with the testing of web services and REST APIs using SoapUI features and tools. You will start with the basics and advance towards designing test frameworks for performing manual and automation testing on web services and APIs with the help of real-time projects.

Do you want to get up and running with SoapUI to test web services and APIs? This course is designed in a manner that lets you learn from scratch without any knowledge of SoapUI, web services, and REST API. The course starts with an introduction to web services and APIs, enabling you to understand the different types of web services and the importance of Web Services Description Language (WSDL) in web services. Next, you will learn to manually test web services and APIs using the SoapUI tool and use Groovy to trigger SoapUI requests for automation testing. As you progress, you will learn to design the SoapUI framework from scratch using TestNG, Jenkins, and Java API. Moving along, you will understand the concepts of security and database testing using SoapUI and learn how to integrate SoapUI with Eclipse. Before you wrap up, you will prepare for job interviews with sample interview questions and get an introduction to SQL queries for database testing. By the end of this course, you will be well-versed with web services and APIs specifications and will be able to write effective manual and automation test cases for web services and APIs.
