    Expressive middleware for node.js using ES2017 async functions

  • The test cases for other requests are identical except for the assertion on the status field. Now that we have tests for our requests, let's run them. We'll need to create a backend server that will handle the API requests. You can implement the backend server in any language or framework as long as it is REST compliant, but in this article, we’ll build a simple Node.js server using Koa.

  • Newman

    Newman is a command-line collection runner for Postman

  • Postman provides a command line tool called Newman that lets you run collections from the CLI. It also offers seamless integration with CI/CD environments, meaning we can set up our tests to run during a deployment step. This greatly simplifies the testing process, preventing us from constantly having to run tests in the workspace.

  • SurveyJS
