API Testing Summit 2021 is one-day conference brought to you by Agile Testing Alliance , DevOps++ Alliance, CPWST and QualityKiosk
APIs now serve as the primary interface to business logic. GUI tests are delayed, slow and difficult to maintain, especially with the shorter release cycles in the DevOps world.
API Testing (Web Services Testing) has gained significant prominence. With the advent of microservices architecture and exponential growth of external and internal facing API’s the need for early and continuous API testing is extremely high. There are potentially hundreds or thousands of consumers for an API. An issue in API could have a cascading effect. To reduce the risks and maintain quality API Testing strategy is now central for every testing and development team.
#APISummit2021 is an attempt to highlight this importance and bring speakers from all around the world to share their knowledge and learnings in this wonderful API Testing space.
Agile Testing Alliance wants to foster community growth dedicated to API / Webservices Testing space and add this wonderful episode in their community led conferencing space.
