About this collection

Qodex's powerful scripting feature helps you to write a range of API tests in JavaScript, including integration, regression, and contract tests.

Using the collection

Step 1: Send the sample requests and view the response and test results.

Step 2: Replace the sample request URLs with your desired API endpoints.

Step 3: Customize the tests in the Tests tab if needed. Don't forget to save your changes.

Quick tips for writing tests

  • Organize your test scenarios by grouping your requests in collections and folders, and naming them descriptively
  • Document your API’s requirements using markdown in the descriptions
  • Use variables to simulate more sophisticated user flows
  • Common tests that will be run after every request can be added to collection-level tests or folder-level tests
