# API Test Automation
## Overview
Automate comprehensive API endpoint testing for REST and GraphQL APIs including request generation, response validation, schema compliance, authentication flows, and error handling. Supports Supertest (Node.js), REST-assured (Java), httpx/pytest (Python), Postman/Newman collections, and Pact for consumer-driven contract testing.
## Prerequisites
- API testing library installed (Supertest, REST-assured, httpx, or Postman/Newman)
- API specification file (OpenAPI/Swagger YAML/JSON or GraphQL SDL)
- Target API running in a test environment with seeded data
- Authentication credentials or API keys for protected endpoints
- JSON Schema validator (Ajv, jsonschema, or built-in framework assertions)
