Automating API tests
API test automation is often valuable, and in this section, I want to help you to think about how to get started with creating it for an existing API. However, I'm not going to walk you through a step-by-step process of doing this since I want you to practice doing this on your own. You will learn more if you try some things out on your own. I won't just throw you in the deep end though. In this section, I will give you a quick review of some concepts that will help you with creating API test automation. I will then give you a challenge that I want you to try, and I'll also give you some guidance on how you might break down your approach to solving this challenge. If you work through this challenge, you will find that you have learned a lot about how to create good API test automation. So, let's start with a review of some important concepts for API test automation and think about how they could play out in creating tests for this API.
