Automate API tests in CI/CD with GitHub Actions — including matrix strategies, secrets, JUnit reports, service containers, and ready-to-copy YAML examples.
GitHub CI CD for API tests: shard YAML flows for parallel runs, upload JUnit artifacts per shard, merge reports, and keep failures readable in PRs.
API testing from real traffic: capture a HAR, convert to reviewable YAML flows, chain requests, and enforce a CI gate with deterministic assertions.
Postman alternative for Git-first teams: store API tests as YAML in Git, review via PRs, chain requests deterministically, and run fast in CI with a runner.
Code review checklist for YAML API tests: chaining, deterministic assertions, secrets hygiene, and CI rules. Review flows in Git, no UI required.
Testing microservices APIs beyond the pyramid: contracts, service virtualization, Docker Compose environments, workflow chaining, and OpenTelemetry trace checks
API testing best practices 2026: why YAML test definitions, GitOps PR workflows, HAR and trace-based generation, and CI-first chaining for determinism.
Contract testing vs end-to-end API testing: use this decision framework and matrix to choose coverage by team size, APIs, release frequency, consumers.
Generate JUnit reports for API tests so GitHub Actions shows clean failures. Stable step names, artifacts, annotations, and exit-code patterns.
Learn practical JSON assertion patterns for API tests with YAML examples: JSONPath checks, array rules, chaining, and CI-friendly determinism.
Schema vs snapshot testing for APIs in CI: when to use contracts, when snapshots win, and a hybrid YAML strategy that stays deterministic in Git.
API regression testing checklist: 30 edge cases for auth, rate limits, pagination, idempotency, and partial failures, plus YAML snippets.
Auditable API test runs: what to store in Git vs CI artifacts (YAML, JUnit, logs, HAR). Build reproducible, reviewable evidence in pipelines.
Build a Git workflow for YAML API tests with required PR checks, JUnit reports, and merge rules. Keep merges deterministic with CI-native, reviewable flows.
Git-friendly YAML API tests need stable formatting. Learn rules for clean diffs: key order, quoting, block scalars, sorted headers, and CI enforcement.
YAML API test file structure conventions for clean Git diffs, deterministic CI/CD runs, and clear request chaining. Practical patterns and examples.
GitHub Flow explained for API testing teams: branching, PR checks, CI, and reviewable YAML workflows. Learn a practical setup and common pitfalls.
