<p>API Testing is recognised as being more suitable for <a href="Automated_testing" class="mw-redirect" title="Automated testing">test automation</a> and <a href="Continuous_testing" title="Continuous testing">continuous testing</a> (especially the automation used with <a href="Agile_software_development" title="Agile software development">Agile software development</a> and <a href="DevOps" title="DevOps">DevOps</a>) than GUI testing.<sup id="cite_ref-forrblog_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-forrblog-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-layers_4-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-layers-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Reasons cited include:

</p>

<ul><li><b>System complexity:</b> GUI tests can't sufficiently verify functional paths and back-end APIs/services associated with multitier architectures. APIs are considered the most stable interface to the system under test.</li>

<li><b>Short release cycles with fast feedback loops:</b> Agile and DevOps teams working with short iterations and fast feedback loops find that GUI tests require considerable rework to keep pace with frequent change. Tests at the API layer are less brittle and easier to maintain.</li></ul>

<p>For these reasons, it is recommended that teams increase their level of API testing while decreasing their reliance on GUI testing. API testing is recommended for the vast majority of test automation efforts and as much edge testing as possible. GUI testing is then reserved for validating typical use cases at the system level, mobile testing, and usability testing.<sup id="cite_ref-forrblog_3-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-forrblog-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-layers_4-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-layers-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-cohn_10-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-cohn-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Types_of_API_testing">Types of API testing</h2></div>

<p>There are several types of tests that can be performed on APIs. Some of these include smoke testing, functional testing, security testing, penetration testing, and validation testing.

</p>

<ul><li><a href="Artificial_intelligence" title="Artificial intelligence">Artificial intelligence</a> (AI) used in API testing improves the efficiency and accuracy of the testing process. It can automatically generate test cases, identify potential issues, and analyze test results through machine learning to identify patterns and anomalies.<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li>

<li><a href="Smoke_testing_(software)" title="Smoke testing (software)">Smoke test</a> - This is a preliminary test that checks if the most crucial functions of an API are working correctly and identifies any major issues before further testing.</li>

<li><a href="Functional_testing" title="Functional testing">Functional testing</a> - This type of testing validates a software system against its functional requirements by providing input and verifying the output. It mainly involves black box testing and is not concerned with the source code.</li>

<li><a href="Black_box_testing" class="mw-redirect" title="Black box testing">Black box testing</a> - This is a type of testing where the tester interacts with the API without knowing its internal workings. The tester provides input and observes the output generated by the API to identify how it responds to expected and unexpected user actions.</li>

<li><a href="Unit_testing" title="Unit testing">Unit testing</a> - This tests the smallest parts of an application, called units, for proper operation. In API testing, this includes testing single endpoints with a single request.</li>

<li><a href="Interoperability_testing" class="mw-redirect" title="Interoperability testing">Interoperability testing</a> - This test checks if an API can interact with other software components and systems without compatibility issues. This applies to SOAP APIs.</li>

<li><a href="Reliability_testing" class="mw-redirect" title="Reliability testing">Reliability testing</a> - This tests APIs to determine if they meet expectations for functionality, reliability, performance, and security. It aims to ensure that the API consistently performs as expected.</li>

<li><a href="Software_verification_and_validation" title="Software verification and validation">Validation testing</a> - This confirms the software matches business requirements and if API tests match expected results. It is closely related to User Acceptance Testing.</li>

<li><a href="Runtime_error_detection" title="Runtime error detection">Runtime error detection</a> - This evaluates the actual running of an API and focuses on monitoring, execution errors, resource leaks, and error detection. Detected errors are fixed to prevent runtime breakdowns.</li>

<li><a href="Fuzzing" title="Fuzzing">Fuzzing</a> - This test transmits random, invalid or unexpected input to an API to find unknown bugs and defects. An API fuzzer generates test inputs and request sequences to the API and records the response to see if any bugs or security vulnerabilities are uncovered.</li>

<li><a href="Load_test" class="mw-redirect" title="Load test">Load test</a> - This type of testing simulates real-world workloads to see how a system or application performs. The goal is to find bottlenecks and determine the maximum number of users or transactions the system can handle.</li>

<li><a href="Software_performance_testing" title="Software performance testing">Performance testing</a> - This type of testing evaluates how an API performs under certain conditions to assess the API's ability to handle high loads and maintain high-performance levels. There are two main types of API performance testing: functional testing and load testing.</li>

<li><a href="Security_Testing" class="mw-redirect" title="Security Testing">Security Testing</a> - This checks for vulnerabilities in APIs to find and fix security gaps. It involves mimicking hacker actions to find bugs and prevent attackers from accessing or disrupting the API or its data.</li>

<li><a href="Penetration_Testing" class="mw-redirect" title="Penetration Testing">Penetration Testing</a> - Ethical hacking is used to assess the security of an API design. An external pentester finds vulnerabilities in API integrations due to incorrect business logic or programming issues to identify security vulnerabilities that attackers could exploit.</li>

<li><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E55956_01/doc.11123/external_user_guide/content/wsi_compliance.html">WS-* compliance testing</a> - This testing applies to SOAP APIs and ensures proper implementation of standards such as WS-Addressing, WS-Discovery, WS-Federation, WS-Policy, WS-Security, and WS-Trust.</li>

<li><a href="Graphical_user_interface_testing" title="Graphical user interface testing">Web UI testing</a> - Checks if the visual elements of a web application's user interface work correctly and are user-friendly. It is different from API testing, which tests the communication between software components.</li></ul>
