API Testing in a
Microservices Architecture

As companies transform their digital assets, they are looking towards turning their legacy systems into microservices. The best method to test microservices is unit testing. When companies are looking to formalize their microservices, they often create APIs, and that’s where API Fortress comes in. We help simplify the functional testing of these APIs, making sure the information and data produced by them matches expectations.

Thanks to easy generation of functional tests with API Fortress, DevOps teams gain valuable time to focus on creating robust end-to-end tests that reproduce user behavior. Go beyond validating singular endpoints with API Fortress, and understand whether entire API programs are interacting as expected.

Simplify API Test Creation and Execution

Automatically generate your first tests in seconds from a payload, spec files, or recorded API traffic. Then edit tests in your own IDE, our downloadable IDE (Forge), or our simple drag-and-drop GUI. A completely unlocked workflow for how your team likes to work. Then easily execute tests as part of your CI pipeline, as a scheduled monitor, and as a load test.

Built for Integrations

With extensive APIs and partnerships, API Fortress is highly interoperable with any platforms in your toolchain. Validate APIs build in API management platforms – MuleSoft, TIBCO Cloud Mashery, Axway, and Oracle. Commit tests to your own Git, execute tests as part of a CI flow (Jenkins, Bamboo, TravisCI, Azure DevOps), receive test results in test case managers like qTest and TestRail, and receive notifications in platforms like Slack.

DID YOU KNOW?
Many of our enterprise customers build APIs in API development environments such as Postman. Instead of using Postman’s limited API test capabilities, they seamlessly automate API testing with API Fortress, without disruption to their Postman workflows.

Automatically generate your first tests in seconds from a payload, spec files, or recorded API traffic. Then edit tests in your own IDE, our downloadable IDE Forge, or our simple drag-and-drop GUI. All tests are unlocked for painless editing as part of your existing workflow. Functional tests may then easily be reused for end-to-end (integration) tests, monitoring, or load testing.

Simplify End-to-End Tests

Thanks to easy generation of functional tests with API Fortress, agile teams gain valuable time to focus on creating robust end-to-end tests that reproduce user behavior. Go beyond validating singular endpoints with API Fortress, and understand whether entire API programs are interacting as expected.

Remove Silos, Standardize Across the Organization

Cross-functional collaboration with context-aware conversations are critical to Agile success. API Fortress simplifies collaboration, and serves every user and team that depends on APIs. All tests and reports are stored in a collaborative environment, so teams can more efficiently validate if their APIs satisfy the business case.
