Great video. Can you kindly give more set up instructions for command line for node.js and newman and then running the downloaded JSON test in command line. That part went too fast. Thanks

[@pardhivaerramilli6746]

Hi ItsTechMode, I finally got this figured out. Newman got installed in users folder and then i also copied the Collection.JSON file into the users folder and then ran this command of newman run NewCollection.postman_collection.json and before that i used open . to see the folder structure in users and to paste the Collection.json file from My Documents to Users folder. Now it ran perfectly. Thank you for taking time to make this video tutorial.

[@ramkumarsubramanian9414]

Hi Pramode! Thank you. Your videos of great help. I'm trying to use the snippets from Postman but the scripts which I have is quite different from yours. For example, //Mandatory fields should be returned tests["User Name is present"] = responseBody.has("userName") pm.test("User Name is present", function () { pm.expect(pm.response.text()).to.include("userName"); }); In the above, both tests are passing but I prefer the first one as it much easier to read. Can you plz tell me how I can change it

[@tuelyqa7951]

Awesome video, How can i test the call back service API using postman test

[@ItsTechMode]

+Tuely QA I am not sure if this feature is supported, I had this same issue I exported the postman request in Javascript and rewritten my code to handle it callback and assert it's response etc

[@shradhameshram8639]

Awesome video... Thanks! I need to ask the newman report link is local,how can we make it public which can be shared to other people?

[@ItsTechMode]

Create one script in python, html report created by newman upload to your server and send it to your client etc in mail or use jenkins to do the same for you.

[@shradhameshram8639]

Need more information on postman - I have created 4 request in a collection, if first request gives me result as id = #num ; how can i pass this id to other upcoming requests(passing this output as an input to other request?

[@shreeparshwarajk3926]

if(responseCode.code==200){ var jsonData = JSON.parse(responseBody); postman.setEnvironmentVariable("id", jsonData.id); You can use the above code.

[@siddharthamutyala3372]

Thanks Pramode. Helps me to recollect what i did.

Hello, I want to test multiple POST APIs, and for that I want to send parameters using CSV... please help me....

[@GeektheGladiator]

Nice video, Is there any way to run these test cases automatically instead of opening NodeJS command prompt and running the test case there?

[@ItsTechMode]

+Saurabh Mishra You mean running only test case? You can use newman and if you want them run daily etc use Jenkins

[@GeektheGladiator]

One very important question : We two people are doing testing using Postman? API is taken care by me and another by him. finally we have merge both scripts toghter. Please suggest how would we do that?

[@ItsTechMode]

What you guys can do is, Import the scripts to Code (In any Programming language and )create your own asserts based on that. www.getpostman.com/docs/postman/sending_api_requests/generate_code_snippets

I've a doubt. When i select the Response body: JSON value check under Test tab in GET request I find a code like this: pm.test("Your test name", function () { var jsonData = pm.response.json(); pm.expect(jsonData.value).to.eql(100); }); how to deal with it?

[@shabnam7039]

Hi @Sumit : I also get the same code and just added like this pm.test("Your test name", function () { var jsonData = pm.response.json(); pm.expect(jsonData[0].title).to.eql("sunt aut facere repellat provident occaecati excepturi optio reprehenderit"); }); its working fine. cheers :)

[@sagarpardeshi6623]

Very useful video

[@srinivaskadiyalaSKC]

At 13.03: What software you have opened to run ?

[@ItsTechMode]

Its Terminal windows with "newman" command line postman collection runner. more details blog.getpostman.com/2015/04/09/installing-newman-on-windows/

[@ItsTechMode]

+srinivas kadiyala go to nodejs.org/en/download/ and download install the Windows or Mac version that you need. Once Node.js is installed, we need to install Newman by running in the Command Line: npm install -g newman

[@realB12]

I do not understand this speaker and the resolution is so poor I am not able to see the screen. Maybe this is enough in a 3rd world country but not in a world where we have universities and quality tools!

[@rsmb99]

Do you know where Postman was developed ? It was created by Abhinav Asthana, a programmer and designer based in Bangalore, India. CEOs of Google and Microsoft are Indians ! If you still think India is a 3rd world country, it only demonstrates your ignorance, haughtiness and racist attitude !

[@ItsTechMode]

Thanks for the feedback, will take care next time, I tried my best to share my knowledge with limited resources. Please understand my situation here :)

[@rsmb99]

Why do you want to reply to such racist, misinformed a**holes who think India is a third world country with no universities ! I didn't have any problem understanding you or seeing the screen despite slightly poor vision in my right eye ! The chief aim of such people is to show India in bad light. They go around hunting in forums doing that. Hope you'll understand it some day.

[@avinashsharma2159]

irritating music.

[@KhushiPatel-uo5gx]

The way you talk like say bla bla.. can't hear you properly.. speak slow n clear
