Why Testing APIs is Crucial in Automation 🚀

1 min read

APIs are designed for programs, not humans. This means there's no room for human judgment to catch inaccuracies in API responses. Manual validation might seem feasible, but it's error-prone, especially with intricate and lengthy data.
For instance, imagine an API response for a book like "Steve Jobs" by Walter Isaacson. Could you spot errors in the ID, ISBN, or URLs by just eyeballing? Unlikely.
That’s why automated testing is essential. Automated tests ensure every detail in API responses is thoroughly and consistently validated—something manual checks can't reliably achieve.
💡 Bottom line: Automate your API tests to save time, reduce errors, and ensure accuracy. Your future self (and your code) will thank you! 😊
