Testing with Postman: An introduction

Betatalks #101

Joey and Jelle demonstrate how to use Postman for automated API testing. Joey shows us that Postman can be used for manual API testing but also fully automated testing. They discuss how Postman allows you to create API requests, add variables, and write tests to validate responses. Did you know you can export your Postman tests and environments to run them from the command line or as part of your build pipeline? They walk through setting up a sample Azure DevOps pipeline to automate the Postman tests. Additionally, they demonstrate how to avoid duplicating test code using Postman's data-driven testing feature.

Originally a simple test and debugging tool, Postman has evolved into a one-stop shop for testing, documentation, and more.
