Thnaks Raghav for this video. I am used with testing API with postman. Can you tell me the difference between Testim and postman and which is best for testing. Raghav, can you do a recent video on Cypress. Thanks 😊

Beyza Postman is best for API testing, allowing you to quickly test, validate, and automate API requests and responses. Testim is suited for end-to-end (E2E) testing of web apps, especially UI tests, as it combines user workflows and backend checks Use Postman for focused API testing. Use Testim if you need both UI and API testing in one tool. Choose based on whether you need just API testing (Postman) or full app testing (Testim) Sure, I will do Cypress again with all new updates

Hi Raghav, do you prefer TestIM or Postman for automated API testing and why?

[@RaghavPal]

Both are good and it depends on your needs. For APIs specifically i will go for Postman

Thanks Raghav, I posted a similar question in some other old video. Adding it here again. I have API testing, that involves external API call within that, like a claim check or getting more information to perform some operations. In that case, how to mock the external API and make the dev-code config point to the mock API for testing purposes? I couldn't explain it more clearly, but I hope you get the point.

Gowthami for mocking external APIs in API testing, you can use various tools and platforms. Some popular ones include WireMock,Postman, Mockoon, Hoverfly, Mountebank, MockServer, GoMock, MSW, Beeceptor, Mocky. These tools allow you to create mock APIs, simulate API behavior, and test your application without relying on the actual API. -
