Hi Mukesh, Please also explain the design pattern and framework using pytest and python for API automation where u can demonstrate integration tests and also mock some services. Need to learn this real thing.

[@Mukeshotwani]

Sure Arti, will do that. Glad to see your comment after long time.

[@123466000]

Glad to see your reply. Currently I have got a project to work on api automation testing for integration tests. And the company uses tox library to mock. But I do not know ABC of this part. I have learnt a lot from ur framework videos and I would like to learn this as well from your tutorials.

Mukesh, some apis have authorisation how can I auth them so that “token is missing” error not show.

[@vivekcv9480]

Excellent knowledge sharing video... Earlier I used postman test assertion. R & D using python is helpful. Can we use pytest framework for automating APIs?

[@Mukeshotwani]

Yes PyTest is test framework and can be used with API, Web or any kind of test. Next video I will change them to Pytest.

[@lavanya91sweety]

This info is helpful.. thank you so much.. I have putty/super putty logs validation most of the time in my testing.. can we automate that using this

[@Mukeshotwani]

Hi Lavanya, if you can get this logs via API then you can use requests which I used in video. In case you have logs independent as file then in python you can use open method to read logs too. Here is the video kzbin.info/www/bejne/hpuVineHrJZjoZo

[@AnujArya89]

If PUT is creating a non-existent record. Then in response we'll get createdAt or updatedAt ?

[@Mukeshotwani]

If not exist then created at and if already present then updated at.
