Differences in Testing REST API and GraphQL API

Many are already familiar with testing REST APIs. But what happens when we switch to GraphQL? After all, both are APIs, but can we use the same testing checklist for both?

In this talk, we will discuss:

• Which API testing principles remain unchanged.
• What should be tested in REST, but is unnecessary for GraphQL.
• What should be tested in GraphQL, but doesn’t need in REST.

I’ll also share links to test environments where you can practice GraphQL testing, even if you don’t have tasks for it at work just yet. But if you do get one tomorrow, you’ll be ready!
