What are Small Business API Testing Tools?

API testing software is used to test and validate the functionality, performance, security, and reliability of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). These tools help ensure that APIs perform as expected under various conditions and meet the required business and technical requirements. Features typically include automated testing, request/response validation, load testing, security testing (e.g., for vulnerabilities and authentication), and performance testing. API testing software often supports integration with continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines to facilitate automated testing as part of the software development lifecycle.
