payloads api code example
Example 1: what is payload in api
The “payload” is the data we are interested
in transporting. This is differentiated from
the things that wrap the data for transport
like the HTTP/S Request/Response headers,
authentication, etc.
Example 2: request payload api
Request Payload has
ENDPOINT (Specific URL where we send our requests to a certain web service. )
METHOD (Get•Post•Put•Patch•Delete)
HEADERS(Represents the metadata of
request or response. Like basically
we can verify the object type we are sending etc )
PARAMETERS(Parameters are to specifiying
even more about the request we are
sending like what specific resources
needs to be returned etc.)
BODY(Body is where we sent or received the request we made)
For the repsonse
Basically we are checking response body
to verify if request matches with response.
In the response we are verifying
(body, status code, header, response time,
test structure of json against the given jsonSchema)
