API - Codefire Infotech

Overview

API (Application Programming Interface) services are interfaces that provide a program with a description of how to interact with a system in order to retrieve and/or change the data within it. For the purpose of this article, an API Service is the means with which a piece of software (say, a mobile app) interacts with the functionality stored in the software’s backend (i.e. on the server or made available by a third party). Although there are some technical differences, for this article, we will assume that the APIs we discuss are “web APIs”; that is, APIs provided over the HTTP/HTTPS protocol.

    Benefits With Our Service

    Codefire Infotech enterprises are constantly looking for ways to stay ahead of the pack, maintain an edge, and dominate the marketplace. And Application Programming Interfaces (commonly shortened to APIs) offer them the best opportunities to unleash their potential and attain their business goals. Because of the benefits of APIs, enterprises can advance their growth and compete effectively in the current digital era. Typically, an API is a software intermediary that acts as a communication link between computer systems, allowing them to access, interact, and extract a company’s data and functions.

    Working Process

    01. WHAT IS AN API?

    API stands for Application Programming Interface. An API is a set of programming code that enables data transmission between one software product and another.

    02. HOW DOES AN API WORK?

    APIs sit between an application and the web server, acting as an intermediary layer that processes data transfer between systems. Here’s how an API works:

    A client application initiates an API call to retrieve information—also known as a request. This request is processed from an application to the web server via the API’s Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) and includes a request verb, headers, and sometimes, a request body.
    After receiving a valid request, the API makes a call to the external program or web server.
    The server sends a response to the API with the requested information.
    The API transfers the data to the initial requesting application.

    03. WHAT IS API TESTING?

    While there are many aspects of API testing, it generally consists of making requests to a single or sometimes multiple API endpoints and validating the response. The purpose of API testing is to determine if the API meets expectations for functionality, performance, and security.

    04. WHAT IS THE MOST POPULAR API?

    The most used API is a RESTful API (Representational State Transfer API). RESTful APIs allow for interoperability between different types of applications and devices on the internet.

    05. WHAT IS REST API TESTING?

    REST API Testing is a web automation testing technique for testing REST-based APIs for web applications without using the user interface. The purpose of REST API testing is to record the response of REST API by sending various HTTP requests to check if REST API is working correctly. You can test a REST API with GET, POST, PUT, PATCH and DELETE methods.

    06. HOW CAN I IMPROVE MY API TESTING & PERFORMANCE?

    Speedscale helps operation teams prevent costly incidents by validating how new code will perform under production-like workload conditions. Site Reliability Engineers use Speedscale to measure the golden signals of latency, throughput and errors before the code is released. Speedscale Traffic Replay is an alternative to legacy API testing approaches which take days or weeks to run and do not scale well for modern architectures.
