Karate Framework : Dedicated for API Testing

Here you can find how to use KARATE framework in API Testing, in simple way. Here I have used maven framework:

1. Create a Maven Framework : and respective directories - files & folders;

 2. Add dependencies into POM.XML: get it from Maven Repository

 

1.  karate-core

2. karate-apache

3. karate-junit4 

 

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
         xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
         xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 https://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
    <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
    <groupId>KarateTesting</groupId>
    <artifactId>KarateTesting</artifactId>
    <version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
    <dependencies>
        <!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.intuit.karate/karate-core -->
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.intuit.karate</groupId>
            <artifactId>karate-core</artifactId>
            <version>1.0.1</version>
        </dependency>
        <!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.intuit.karate/karate-apache -->
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.intuit.karate</groupId>
            <artifactId>karate-apache</artifactId>
            <version>0.9.6</version>
            <scope>test</scope>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.intuit.karate</groupId>
            <artifactId>karate-junit4</artifactId>
            <version>1.0.1</version>
            <scope>test</scope>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</project>

3. Create .feature FILE:
Here I have created named myFeature.feature (u can name any thing)

Here I have shown four example with GET & POST method similary it can used for other API operation methods such as PUT , DELETE, etc.

Feature: check api response first testing
  Background:
    * url 'https://reqres.in'
    * header Content-Type = 'application/json'

  Scenario: Testing api
    Given path '/api/users'
    When param per_page = '20'
    When method GET
    Then status 200'

   Scenario: Testing param only 2
      Given path '/api/users'
      When param '2'
    When method GET
    Then status 200'

  Scenario: Testing post
    Given path '/api/register'
    And request {"email" : "sydney@fife","password" : "pistol"}
    When method POST
    #Then status 200'

  Scenario: Testing post second
    Given path '/api/users'
    And request {"name": "{{name}}","job": "{{job}}"}
    When method POST
    Then status 201'

4. Create Runner file .JAVA : here I have used MyTestRunner.java ( u can name anything) , just defined class and annotated as shown in snapshot RunWith - Karate.class, which can import from Karate and Junit.

package com.testing.karate;

import org.junit.runner.RunWith;

import com.intuit.karate.junit4.Karate;

@RunWith(Karate.class)
public class MyTestRunner {

}

5. Check the HTML report inside the Target directory of Maven Framework , once test script run u can find the report in html format inside target folder.
