New Test Application Overview | Bondar Academy

Lesson Summary

This lesson introduces a new test application with a backend API that allows for a fully functional client-server interaction. The application, accessible at conduit.bonderacademy.com , enables users to perform various API activities. Getting Started To begin, users must create an account: Click on the sign up link in the top right corner. Enter a random email and password to create a unique account. For example, a user can register as test rigor [email protected] with the password welcome . Core Functionality Once logged in, users can: Create articles by entering a title, description, body, and tags. Edit or delete articles. View a list of created articles on the main page. All actions trigger requests to the API, updating records in the database. Network Activity To monitor API calls: Right-click and select Inspect . Navigate to the Network tab and filter by fetch and XHR . Refresh the page to view all API requests. Key endpoints include: /API/user - Retrieves user information. /articles - Lists articles with parameters for pagination. /API/tags - Provides a list of tags used in articles. Test Suite Setup To practice API activities, set up a new test suite in Test Trigger: Name the suite (e.g., conduit QA ). Use the previously created credentials for login. Initial tests should focus on logging into the application, ensuring that users can perform operations after authentication. In conclusion, the project in Test Trigger is now configured, and users are prepared to proceed with further lessons.
