API Testing Training with Karate Framework

Kapsam

Training Description: This training aims to equip participants with the skills to create, automate, and manage API tests using the Karate Framework. API tests play a vital role in verifying that software projects function correctly and that Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) produce the expected outcomes. The Karate Framework offers a powerful tool for easily and effectively creating and automating these API tests.

Target Audience: This training is aimed at software test engineers, QA professionals, software developers, and other relevant technical experts. It is suitable for software developers and test engineers who want to learn how to create, develop, or automate API tests, as well as professionals looking to manage API tests more effectively using the Karate Framework.

Training Content:

• API Testing Fundamentals:
• What is an API and why is it important?
• Types of API testing
• API test levels and protocols
• Karate’s Core Features:
• Introduction to the Karate interface and basic components
• HTTP requests (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, etc.)
• Response validation
• Using Various API Protocols with Karate:
• Testing RESTful services
• Testing GraphQL
• Testing SOAP services
• Basics of API Automation:
• Automation processes and strategies
• Karate’s role in Continuous Integration (CI/CD)
• Tracking and reporting automation
• API Test Automation with Karate:
• Preparing automated test scenarios
• Using dynamic data
• Recording and organizing automation tests with Karate
• Karate’s Advanced Features:
• Dynamic JSON and XML validation
• Parallel testing and creating mock services
• Practical Applications:
• API testing and automation with sample scenarios
• Reinforcing knowledge through practical examples

Method: The training begins with theoretical presentations, followed by interactive sample scenarios and practical exercises. Real-world examples and applications will help participants enhance their Karate Framework skills.

Prerequisites and Preparation: Participants should have intermediate knowledge of Java or another object-oriented language, as well as an understanding of REST API architecture. Before the course, Postman, IntelliJ IDEA, Java JDK (preferably 11), and Maven should be installed on their computers.

Outcomes:

• Using Karate Framework: Participants will learn how to use the Karate Framework to create, manage, and automate API tests. Understanding the basics of Karate Framework is crucial for writing API tests.
• Creating API Tests: Participants will learn to create API tests. They will gain skills in sending HTTP requests, validating responses, and writing test scenarios with the Karate Framework.
• Data Management: Participants will learn how to incorporate data into test scenarios using the Karate Framework and create dynamic test scenarios. This is important for testing different scenarios and working with data.
• Automating Scenarios: Participants will learn how to automate API tests using the Karate Framework. They will gain the ability to automatically run test scenarios with continuous integration tools.
• TestNG Integration: Participants will learn how to organize and execute test scenarios using TestNG with Karate Framework. TestNG is important for organizing tests and tracking results.
• Practical Skills: Throughout the training, participants will work on hands-on examples and projects to practice creating and automating API tests with the Karate Framework.
• Certification: Participants who successfully complete the training will receive a training certificate. This certificate can help document their skills in API testing with the Karate Framework.

Environment: The training will be conducted remotely with an interactive, participant-focused approach. Training materials, sample scenarios, and practical exercises will be provided to the participants.

Training Duration: The total duration of the training is planned as 3 half-days. Theoretical lessons, practical exercises, and group work will ensure participants interact and understand the topics.
