09 - Deep dive into API testing

When you have just cooked up that shiny new API and want to put it to production use, you may want to test it.  In this episode, we share our thoughts on multiple API testing tools and their (dis)advantages so you can have a look yourself which one is the most suitable for your needs.  This is part of a mini-series about the different approaches to API testing and documentation using Postman, Talend and Swagger. This might be the last bit of the mini-series now unless most of our listeners are interested in this kind of thing. If you want to hear more of this, please leave us a note or comment and we shall make more! How are you testing APIs? Are you working test-driven? Have you considered using your test sets as the documentation of your API? Share any thoughts that come to mind, on our website pimpmyapi.com or find us on our Facebook page. Reach out to us if you feel strongly about anything we said, or if you have suggestions on what we should talk about. *teaser: we are (still) working on a new website where we will have show notes where we can link all tools and tech mentioned and you will be able to comment on each episode.
