Tags: api, openapi, swagger, discovery, scenarios, contract, rest, endpoint
What it is API Testing mode uses OpenAPI to discover endpoints, define scenarios, and execute repeatable API checks. Why it’s needed - API regressions are often invisible until production unless tested continuously. - OpenAPI provides a contract that can drive automated test generation. - Institutions need repeatable evidence without building everything by hand. Benefits - Fast endpoint discovery from OpenAPI. - Repeatable scenarios across environments. - Evidence artifacts suitable for release sign-off. How to use it in WebSureQTool 1) Import or point to an OpenAPI spec. 2) Discover endpoints and select operations to test. 3) Configure environments (base URL) and auth profiles. 4) Run scenarios and review results; export evidence where needed.
