🔌 Building Playwright Framework Step By Step - Implementing API Fixtures

  • API testing ensures APIs meet functionality, reliability, performance, and security standards by sending calls to the API and analyzing responses.
  • Key aspects of API testing include functionality, reliability, performance, security, and integration testing for seamless user experiences.
  • Implementing API fixtures involves using the Zod package for schema declaration and validation to maintain data integrity in applications.
  • Setting up the 'api' folder in the fixtures directory improves code organization and maintainability for API-related code.
  • Creating files like 'plain-function.ts', 'schemas.ts', and 'types-guards.ts' streamline the process of making API requests and defining schemas.
  • The 'api-request-fixtures.ts' file extends Playwright test fixtures to implement custom API fixtures for clean and reusable test setups.
  • Updating 'test-options.ts' file with the API fixtures enables the use of both page objects and API utilities in test cases seamlessly.
  • API testing helps identify issues early in the development cycle, leading to a cost-effective and streamlined approach to ensuring software quality and security.
  • By combining TypeScript's compile-time safety with runtime validation, Zod offers a robust solution for ensuring data consistency and preventing runtime errors.
  • Next steps involve implementing API tests using the fixtures to enhance testing capabilities and drive further refinement in software development.
