Fundamentals of Postman

Fundamentals of Postman is a tool course, which gives you the basic knowlege on how to ensure quality with Postman when working with SOA and webservice-projects.

Learning objectives

You will acquire a basic knowledge on how to ensure quality and Postman can be used when working with SOA and web service projects. You will be better at:

  • Working with REST-services in Postman
  • Understanding build-up and the work with services
  • Acquiring knowledge on fundamental XML, JSON, WADL, Javascript and REST
  • Collaboration with developers of web services
  • Building up efficient and structured tests
  • Maintain a self-developed API-client

Furthermore, you will get a lot of tips and tricks as well as Best Practices, which you can use when working with Postman afterwards.

Target audience

The course is for anyone in test- or development teams, who wants to be involved in designing, developing, and testing services, as well as supporting a structured and automated approach using the Postman tool. No prior knowledge of similar tools is required but a basic knowledge of web services can be an advantage – but not a requirement.

Course format

The course is 2 days where the participants through examples and practical exercises will learn how to operate and work with Postman. The course is based on an active involvement of the participants and a lot of hands-on exercises, to ensure that what is learned can be used directly after completing the course.
