• Conduct regression testing to ensure that changes to APIs do not introduce new bugs or regressions, maintaining the overall quality of the APIs.
• Conduct performance testing of APIs using AWS tools like AWS XRay, to evaluate API performance under different loads and conditions.
• Perform security testing of APIs to identify vulnerabilities and ensure compliance with security best practices and standards.
• Test API gateway configurations and integrations to ensure proper routing, transformation, and security of API requests and responses.
• Test error handling mechanisms of APIs to ensure they return appropriate error codes and messages in case of failures or invalid requests.
• Document test plans, test cases, and test results, and collaborate with developers to ensure issues are properly documented and tracked.
• Collaborate with developers, DevOps engineers, and other stakeholders to resolve issues and improve the quality of APIs, following an Agile development process.
• Stay updated with the latest trends, tools, and technologies related to API testing and quality assurance, and continuously improve testing processes and methodologies.
• Communicate effectively with team members and stakeholders, providing clear and concise feedback on the quality of APIs and any issues found during testing.
