In software development, microservices and APIs are used for writing business logic. API testing has become an important component in the testing cycle, as it can be used to test the functionality, integration flows, load and performance.

In this course, you will learn how to perform REST and SOAP API test automation. This course covers all the required details for you to start writing API and integration tests from scratch. It will also prepare you for test automation interviews.

As part of the course, you will be able to download a sample API automation framework. You can use this for writing automation tests of modules or applications, or just extend and customize it for your own use

### Popular REST API automation tools

Some of the most popular open-source REST API automation tools are:
  
#### **Rest Assured**

This is one of the most popular libraries for REST API test automation with extensive community support. We have used this automation library in this course. 
 
#### **Unirest**

[Unirest](http://kong.github.io/unirest-java/) is a set of lightweight HTTP libraries available in multiple languages. It also uses DSL for writing automation tests.


#### **OkHttp**

It is an open-source project and an efficient HTTP client. It supports HTTP 2.0 and allows all requests to the same host to share a socket. [OkHttp's](https://square.github.io/okhttp/) request/response API is designed with fluent builders and immutability. It supports both synchronous blocking calls and async calls.
