determinedTester's Journey

I recently discovered a bug in a mobile application that I was using. The app is coming under Education category. I downloaded this app , when I tried to launch, the app is locked. The homescreen showed the App icon grayed out. When I launched the app, it was talking about limits. hmm , interesting... I realized that couple of days ago, I had set screentime for Entertainment category for 15 mins. Then why is this app locked out? Ahh, the App Developers categorized this in wrong category.  Lesson learned:    Testing begins even before using the App. Always pay attention to every detail.   Here's how:    1. Before installing the app, review the app info on the Appstore.     2. Observe the tag line category, size etc..     3. The claims,App reviews ..

 API testing strategy     I now understand the fundamentals of API, how to send requests, and how to evaluate responses. Moreover, I finished the 15-day Postman testers challenge. I was now interested in finding out more about how to test a specific endpoint. I discovered that we can perform validations, check response times, perform functional testing, etc. When I continued to feel that this testing was insufficient, I came across this YouTube  Video .  In this video,  Pricilla (Prici) Bilavendran  explains API testing techniques in a brilliant way. This is a mind map of my notes for future reference:

  API Testing journey   I've been working on learning API testing for quite some time. I was only aware of the acronym API, which stands for application programming interface, until 2022. I started my search on Google because I wanted to learn more than that.  I Completed the following courses on various education platforms: 1. Coursera — Postman - Intro to APIs (without coding) 2. Coursera — Start Your API Testing Journey With Postman Tool 3. Udemy —  REST APIs with Postman for Absolute Beginners 4.  MOT - https://github.com/g33klady/TodoApiSample/tree/main/Resources . https://github.com/g33klady/TodoApiSample 5. LinkedIn Learning — API Testing Foundations 6. Test Automation university: https://testautomationu.applitools.com/exploring-service-apis-through-test-automation / 7. Test Automation university: https://testautomationu.applitools.com/python-api-testing /    Postman was discussed as a tool for API testing in the first three cour...

  API testing with Bearer token  HTTP Authentication Schemes:   HTTP Authentication verifies the user's eligibility to access the web resource. It involves HTTP header-based communication between the client and the server, with the server requesting the user's credentials for authentication. I'll start by writing about bearer tokens because I recently learnt about them.   When a user logs in, the authentication server generates a token known as a bearer token. This token should be sent in the header of the client's subsequent calls .This token will shortly expire; in such circumstances, a new token must be generated. Application using Bearer token: The Contact List App is a small program that Kristin Jackvony created for testing. The APIs for this application authenticate users using bearer tokens. API documentation can be found https://documenter.getpostman.com/view/4012288/TzK2bEa8 I started by exploring the app's functionality , making a list of prosp...
