selectize.js VS swagger-ui

Selectize will do the heavy lifting https://selectize.dev/

Jumping onto this you can then use a library like chosen, select2, selectize.js or others to get type ahead like behaviour to populate the data as a user types.

It breaks selectize, but honestly I don't remember the details so I won't argue further.

Swagger is a fantastic open-source toolset that's perfect for developing and describing RESTful APIs. It offers you a user-friendly interface to understand a service's capabilities without needing to dig into the code. It even provides a way for you to interact directly with the API, which means you get to test its functionality.

The API had an OpenAPI endpoint built with Swagger where I could download a JSON specification file for the API.

Swagger is a widely used tool for documenting and testing APIs.

Swagger is an open-source software framework that implements the OpenAPI Specification—an API description format for REST APIs. The OpenAPI Specification defines a standard, language-agnostic interface to HTTP APIs, enabling both humans and computers to discover and understand the capabilities of the API.

Mocking and Testing: Once the API design is complete, developers create mock APIs to simulate the behavior of the actual services. This early testing phase helps identify any issues or mismatches between design and implementation before substantial development efforts are invested. Tools like Postman or Swagger are invaluable for API testing and validation.

import fp from "fastify-plugin"; import swagger from "@fastify/swagger"; export default fp(async (fastify) => { fastify.register(swagger, { openapi: { info: { tags: [ { name: "drinks", description: "Drink-related endpoints", externalDocs: { description: "Find out more", url: "http://swagger.io", }, }, ], }, }, }); });

A very requested feature for Sharkio was the auto-generation of OpenAPI documentation using the recorded HTTP requests - to create standardized documentation.

Automation QA is a lot of the same duties as manual QA, but instead of writing and executing the test plans manually, we create and update automated tests that can run those validations programmatically, for example by using Selenium to automatically fill out and submit forms for a web application, or using Postman and/or Swagger to generate an API conversation test.
